Tampere Disc Golf Center needs to be saved!

Tampere is currently a premier disc golf destination--folks in the states such as myself are hoping to do Finnish disc golf trips once it is safe to travel again, and Tampere is at the top of our lists. Courses here in the states are trying to emulate what you've already created--it would be a horrible shame to see such a groundbreaking facility no longer be available.

Disc golf is so important to the community to get people active and outside. It’s an easy sport to get into and do something as a family or use it as exercise. I used disc golf over a three year period to lose almost 150lbs.! I’d love it if this course could be apart of someone else’s el weight loss journey or used as family bonding time. Please don’t get rid of this course!

I care deeply about disc golf courses and I know many people do around the world. We have enough golf courses. This is cheaper than golf and more inviting to all ages, genders and income groups. Golf is a middle to high class living hobby.

Paljon ilom hetkiä ja hyödyllistä liikuntaa. Jos viereinen golf kenttä pelaa niin niin pelataan mekin

Disc golf has history and we can conform to ball golf when disc golf is the up and coming sport worldwide!

Disc golf is amazing and only growing larger. The more courses we have, the larger the sport grows. Which means, more human traffic in that area.

One of the biggest things I know about Finland is their disc golf. This course should stay.

Disc golf is huge and growing and speaks to the regular person more than ball golf.

Tampere DGC is a beautiful championship course that has international acclaim. As disc golf continues to grow in popularity it could be a viable host for multiple high-profile tournaments.

Tampere Disc Golf Center is a destination course that brings in tourism for Finland. I travelled to Finland in 2019 from USA, to play The Beast in Nokia, and Tampere DG Center. It's one of the best, if not the best, disc golf courses in the world. Another golf course will simply be, another golf course.

Disc golf needs to continue to grow and beauty courses already created should not be destroyed for something else.

Sentteri on sellainen suomalaisen frisbeegolfin pyhättö jota ei yksinkertaisesti voi korvata mikään rata suomessa. Pohjoisesta asti tuo rata saa harrastajan liikkeelle ja rata on saavuttanut jo legenda statuksen.. Kuvan kaunis miljöö sekä haastavat ja kauniit väylät tarjoavat Suomessa ainutkertaisen frisbeegolf kokemuksen!! Tämmöistä ei voida viedä pois räjähdysmäisesti kasvavalta lajilta ja sen harrastajilta!

As a disc golf player. This sounds absurd to remove a course to make way for another course. This sounds more like entitlement.

Disc Golf is a huge part of the parks and rec system we have here in the states. Tampere DGC is a bucket list course for most everyone I know and play weekly with and taking that potential experience away from so many is breaking my heart. This course is one of few world renowned courses in the world and has a lot of play per week so is very important for mental and physical health. Please allow this course to remain as it is to important to ALL of us across the world.

There are plenty of golf courses. We need more disc golf and it's more budget friendly. Golf is for rich people, disc golf allows family and friends to get together and they don't have a cart fee or big money to become a member!

Disc golf was a sport that anybody can enjoy. It doesn't discriminate against young old rich poor and everybody can't participate. If the world championships were held here it would bring a lot of people and notoriety to the area.

I’m signing because the disc golf community is growing rapidly and the sport is becoming well known all over the world. It’s defeating whenever someone wants to take a course away but we’ll never back down.

Because Disc Golf should be respected like any other sport and it feels incredibly disrespectful and belittling to hear that a city would willingly allow a Disc Golf course be removed for a ball golf course expansion.

Disc golf is growing unbelievably fast. So many have made that course their home. It would be a shame to take it away.

I love watching the professional disc golfers on this course. It is one of the most beautiful courses in the world and is unique and special to our sport. It has the chance to be the scene for a Major tournament because it is one of the best in Europe if not the world.

Brian Dean (Bolton, 2021-09-03)
