Chace will be the first known professional player to visit and play in Allegany County !
By Andrew Harris
You’ve probably heard about disc golf, maybe you’ve noticed Riley Allen’s Disc Golf Course on Route 417 just west of Allentown NY, and or perhaps you’ve played a round of two yourself. Disc Golf has been gaining in popularity for years and the course in Allentown has been growing and improving right along with the sport.
Riley Allen’s course hosts league play, open play, and tournaments all the time for a group of local players and even attracting folks from out of town to play! This Sunday the course will host DGPA Harry Chace who plays for team Discmania and travels the nations playing in tournaments, not much different than a young professional PGA tour player.
Chace will put on a teaching clinic for an hour starting at 5:30pm and then play a round with locals Rowen Ader (Wellsville), Ethan Meyers , Connor Robbins (Allentown) and Jeremy Gowdy (Wellsville).
Everyone is invited to be part of the “gallery” and watch this high level match, making some interesting local history. Harry’s appearance is like the first ever in local history, hopefully the first of many!!
For those who want to participate in the clinic at 530, please come a bit early, the $25 fee will go to Chace and help with travel expenses and getting to the next event. Follow Riley Allen’s Disc Golf Course on Facebook for more!!
