Playing disc golf under current restrictions in SEQ

The Queensland Government has put out their directive for the current restrictions in 11 Southeast Queensland LGAs that have just come out of lockdown. Please review it at https://www.health.qld.gov.au/system-governance/legislation/cho-public-health-directions-under-expanded-public-health-act-powers/restrictions-impacted-areas

In particular, Schedule 3 applies to disc golf, and they have been kind enough to provide golf as a specific example:

Example: a person may play golf:

  • with other people provided a gathering of 10 people is not exceeded; and
  • with physical distancing maintained to the extent possible; and
  • must not play matches, fixtures or compete.

We suggest that contact with course equipment (especially targets) should be minimised (e.g. consider a using a gimme within 3m of the basket so contact with the basket is avoided), & don’t touch other players’ discs/equipment.

Please play safely and respectfully, and in full compliance with the above directive.
