History

Year established
1988
History
A grant from the Hunt Foundation and a partnership between Pittsburgh Citiparks and Pittsburgh Flying Disc created the course originally designed by Steve Kohman in 1988. Concrete tee pads installed 1998. Mach3 baskets replaced the original Mach2 baskets in 2008. 2025 redesign removed one hole considered too close to the skating rink, and added a new hole 15. New tee signs and Discatcher baskets added with additional landscaping to mitigate erosion.
