Abstract(s)
This book is intended for all educators and teachers who work with children between the ages of 4 and
10, when coordination and motor skills are being developed. The activities included within this text are
designed to teach children how to manipulate a disc, an object with extraordinary potential. Engaging in
Flying Disc sports from an early age promotes motor coordination, lateral and spatial orientation, and
introduces the concepts to build a foundation of excellent sportspersonship. In creating this resource we
wanted to provide more options in the physical educational process, introducing a framework for the use
of discs and Flying Disc sports from the youngest ages. Using a disc in sports does not replace the use of
balls but provides variety and increases the learning potential. The activities and concepts within this
work are based on science and the authors' decades of experience in education and Flying Disc sports
around the world. As the person responsible for this project, I would like to take this opportunity to thank
WFDF, the contributing authors, designers, and publishers, who together have managed our goal to
bring Flying Disc sports to schools.
