Mathison Park, 19 Mackeys Rd, Churchill VIC 3842
An 18-hole course has been developed at Mathison Park – 19 Mackeys Rd, Churchill
In addition to the new disc golf course, Mathison Park features a brand-new playground, picnic facilities including BBQs, shelters, toilets and walking paths around Lake Hyland. The course begins at Mathison Park Playground.
There are now a limited supply of discs for sale at Latrobe Leisure Churchill.
A flying disc is thrown from a concrete tee pad toward a target which is the “hole”, or in this case, an elevated metal basket. As a player progresses down the fairway, they must make each consecutive shot from the spot where the previous throw has landed. Finally, the “putt” lands in the basket and the hole is completed. Landing the disc on top of the basket does not count. To find the next hole, look at the base of each basket for an arrow which shows you the direction of the next tee.
To begin the next hole, the player with the lowest score on the previous hole throws first. For safety reasons always give other park users the right of way. Never throw your flying disk when other players or park users are within range.
Each throw of your disc adds one point to your score. The winner is the player that completes the course with the least number of throws.
You can keep score using the UDisc app which is the official app of the Professional Disc Golf Association where you can keep score, view courses and track stats. It can be downloaded on both Android and Apple devices.
Alternatively, you can collect a copy of our scorecard from Latrobe Leisure Churchill or Download your score card for Mathison Park to keep track of your score.
If you have your own flying discs, you can use these on the disc golf course. Latrobe City Council also offers a FREE disc hire service. Each individual can hire one disc at a time FREE of charge. You can speak to our Leisure staff about organising the hire of flying discs for your school, community or sporting group.
To hire flying discs, please visit Latrobe Leisure Churchill: Corner Northways Road and McDonald Way, Churchill. You will be required to sign out the discs and return them once you have completed the course.
This is a courtesy program, the collection and return of the discs is the sole responsibility of the person completing the hire form. Follow-up phone calls will be made for any un-returned flying discs.
If you are a regular user of the course and would like to own your own discs, you can hire a set of flying discs from Latrobe Leisure Churchill or purchase a set online at Melbourne Disc Golf or Flying Disc Store.
