I'm a 16 year old that started playing last year and now plays everyday. Whenever I see kids on the course, I always play a few rounds with them. I do my best to teach them to the best of my abilities. Being such an inviting person, they usually come back. After playing a couple times, they get hooked and I check back with them every once in a while to show/ tell them something new. Just over the last week I've gotten 2+ people hooked and they've already improved and brought friends out to try out disc golf. This is how you promote disc golf to new people, especially kids/ teens. Invite them to join you for a round and teach them a few things so they have fun.

Also, I'm probably going to start a disc golf club at my high school and I'm going to try to get Dave or Avery to help me promote it if possible.
