Disc Connected

27/09/2026

🥏 Disc-Connected now pays you back for helping discs get home

Big update for the NZ + AU disc golf crowd. The site's been rebuilt (much faster, dark mode 🌙) and your activity on the platform now earns points, levels and badges — with prizes coming soon

How you earn:

🏆 20 points — return someone's disc to them
🏆 10 points — get one of yours back
🔗 10 points — invite a mate who joins and posts a disc (up to 10 mates)
✅ 5 points — verified profile with a phone number on file
🔔 5 points — switch on push notifications
⭐ 5 points — leave a review once a disc has been returned
⚡ 3 points — answer a contact request within a day
📮 3 points — your first listing
🎒 1 point each — discs in My Bag, photos on your listings, new courses you've listed at, listings you keep current

Every 100 points is a level. There are 29 badges to collect and I'm not telling you what they all are — turning one up you didn't know existed is half the fun. Your dashboard shows what you've earned and how many are still out there, and the homepage leaderboard shows everyone's badges.

Grab your invite link from your dashboard and send it to your card mates — more players on here means better odds for every disc on the board.

And while you're here: NZ-made RPM Discs give the Disc-Connected community 10% off at discconnected.kiwi/sponsor?id=RPMDiscs with code DC10.

Free to use, always has been. Load up your bag, list your lost discs, and let's get more of them home 🥝

🥏 RPM Discs are now a Disc-Connected sponsor!

RPM have been making disc golf plastic right here in Aotearoa since 2004, out of Onehunga in Tāmaki Makaurau. Kāhu, Pekapeka, Pīwakawaka, Tākapu — if you play in New Zealand, chances are you've thrown one. Or found one in the long grass 👀

NZ-made plastic, NZ-made platform. Felt like a natural fit.

To say thanks to the community, RPM are giving Disc-Connected players 10% off with the code: DC10

We've pulled their featured range onto one page — the Kāhu, Pekapeka, Pīwakawaka and Tākapu, plus the Tahi Iti backpack and the Disc Mate LT portable basket:

Sponsors like RPM are what keep Disc-Connected free for everyone. As they put it themselves — it's in our nature 🌿

🥏 CALLING THE WANAKA CREW — a disc needs rescuing! 🌲

A kind non-golfer spotted a disc out at Lismore Park and reached out so we could get it home. Here's the intel:

📍 Course: Lismore Park, Wanaka
📅 Spotted: 3 June 2026
🥏 The disc: has "Detour" written on the back

If you're playing Lismore soon, keep an eye out and if you grab it, pop it up on Disc Connected as a Found disc so we can match it to its owner. (You'll bag yourself finder points for the assist too 😉)

Huge thanks to the legend who flagged this one. This is the community at its best. 🙌

🥏 Pro tip from the lost-and-found trenches:

Inked discs come home faster.

The single biggest predictor of whether a disc gets returned is whether the owner's name and contact info is on it.

We see it weekly on Disc-Connected: two identical discs found at the same course in the same week. One has "Tom 027###" sharpied on the back. The other is blank.

Guess which one gets reunited.

Best practice:
🖊 First name + phone number on the underside of the rim
🖊 Metallic Sharpie for dark discs — they last longer
🖊 Re-ink every few months — sweat and friction wear them down

Disc-Connected does the heavy lifting when ink is missing, but ink + Disc-Connected = practically guaranteed return 🤝
