DGA was established in 1976 by Ed Headrick to form a new international sport and promote the installation and use of disc golf courses around the world. Ed coined and trademarked the term “Disc Golf” and envisioned a game that would explode in popularity. “Steady” Ed traveled around the country to install courses, recruit players, and add members to the Professional Disc Golf Association, a new disc golf association he created to establish the rules of the game.
