Post by: GASP Gary on July 05, 2009: Like golf, but you use a frisbee instead of a club and ball. You play from a throw-in (tee) to a special "pole-hole" basket that traps the frisbee, counting the throws it takes to get in. Winner has lowest score.
A growing sport throughout the world, with big competitive events in America and Europe, and a professional tour circuit of events. The European Open is being held in Finland, I think, next month.

Post by: DryBag on August 31, 2009: Has anybody been to GASP?
don't take offense Gary - it sounds amazing - but it's a long way to take the youth club, so I want to hear some independent reviews!

If anybody has criticism that's not constructive you can PM me.
but I'm sure if GASP do something wrong they want to know so they can improve.
(if it's good, tell your friends, if it's bad, tell the management, and all that)
