For many players, disc golf is more than just a sport - it's a way to spend quality time with their loved ones. In honor of Valentine's Day, we asked PDGA members to share their disc golf love stories and how this shared activity has impacted their relationships.

Sarah Cahill had a very special wedding day on the course, as she was married at Cedar Creek Open in 2020. She credits disc golf with giving her an opportunity to give back to the community alongside her partner. "We ran our first tournament together in 2020 and have been active on the boards of various disc golf clubs," Sarah explained.

Colleen M. has a unique story, as she was once hesitant to hit the course with her husband due to her lack of skill. However, after some encouragement, she discovered that disc golf was not just about exercise but also socialization and friendly competition. "Now I'm out playing multiple rounds with my husband and 'the guys' every weekend," Colleen said.

Mary Ellen Moeller, a 2021 PDGA Amateur World Champion, credits disc golf for bringing her and her partner closer together. She appreciates the support and encouragement she receives from her loved one during tournaments, saying, "I don't know if we'd be together if we didn't have disc golf."
