Welcome to the Scott Family Disc Golf Website!
Disc Golf Clinic Testimonial Page
I have known
Debbie for about 10 yrs now and she is an incredible ambassador
the for game of Disc Golf. She is has done a number of clinics
to help our kids learn more about the game and also most importantly
sportsmanship. She has hosted these events for our Blue Grass
festival in the fall and has Disc Golf tournaments for our
kids and staff for almost every week that CBC runs and that
is 7 weeks. The impact she has had is on over 1200 kids that
pass through CBC during the summer months. You can see the
impact when you have kids showing up with a bag full of disc
and looking for the disc golf lady. From her constant leadership
we have now considered having and official tournament help
at CBC to help raise funds for the camp.

My name
is Bobby Hermann, and I am the Innova Ambassador Team Captain.
I have known Debbie for a few years in that capacity.
Debbie is one of our best ambassadors. She stands out even
among the stellar roster of this squad. No small accomplishment.
Debbie's integrity, character, energy, and commitment to
promoting disc golf are beyond question. She has made it a
focus to promote kids involvement in the sport a priority
far beyond her work with EDGE.
Debbie's quality of work and commitment has led me to appoint
her Captain for both women's affairs and junior players recruitment.
Furthermore, her absolute adherence to the highest standards
of conduct and her thorough knowledge of the rules of play
and courtesy have led me to appoint her sole Marshal of Conduct
for the ambassador squad.
Debbie is the only ambassador to hold two Captaincies, let
alone a third post as Marshall.
Debbie has never said no to any task I have asked of her,
despite her considerable existing time commitments---She works
as a life guard, has two children (both of whom play disc
golf and are successful in their own right), runs a household,
and as stated above, has many existing responsibilities for
the squad.
Debbie is also a fierce competitor with a large number of
wins in pro divisions. I believe she entered 22 tourneys last
year and won 17 of them.
I therefore give my complete and unrestricted endorsement
for the position she is being considered for.
Thank you for your time and attention to this letter.
Sincerely Yours,
B. Hermann

I was not asked to write
this, I am doing so of my own inspiration. I found Ms. Scott
to be a consummate ambassador for the sport; the best I've
had interaction with to date. She was fully available, absolutely
engaged, and had my daughter's best interest at heart as if
she was HER daughter. Affable, authentic, and enthusiastic,
I can not say enough good things about Debbie Scott. It remains
an honor to know you.

Debbie Scott has visited
Mountain Island Charter School on several occasions the past
few years to provide my middle school P.E. students with an
overview and demonstration of disc golf. She has also donated
equipment to us so that our students can practice the sport.
Most of my students had not been exposed to disc golf before
attending Debbie’s presentation. Most of them have heard
of it because many parks around our area are building disc
golf courses for public use. Debbie’s presentation was
well-received by my students who were interested in learning
how to play the sport.
Debbie focused on the idea that anyone can play disc golf.
This was especially important to many of my students who don’t
consider themselves as athletes. It gave them a great option
to consider playing this sport since Debbie focused on how
anyone can play it.
Debbie’s presentation gave my students a well-rounded
overview of the sport of disc golf. I appreciate the time
she has spent coming to our school to teach my students about
the sport as well as her generous donations of equipment to
use to practice the sport afterward.

FOCUS Garinger is an
academy within Garinger High School that serves over-age,
under-credited, first-time freshman students. Our student
population largely lacks in life experiences that stretch
beyond their backyards or smart phones. It has been a part
of our mission this year to broaden their perspectives on
the world by introducing them to knew things. Debbie Scott
was an integral part of that effort.
During the year, Debbie spent time with our students introducing
them to the sport of disc golf. Debbie taught our students
basic form and strategy and spent time with them on the course.
Students were able to play rounds with Debbie and other area
enthusiasts that she recruited to volunteer for her training.
In addition, Debbie provided our students with one free Innova
disc to take home so that they could continue playing if they
so chose.
Two of our students have taken full advantage of that offer.
Both live very close to disc golf courses and have used their
free disc to practice the game during their free time. Both
can now be found playing on the weekends thanks to the encouragement
and support that Debbie offered.
Her contribution can likely best be summed up in an anecdote.
As one might suspect, teenagers can sometimes be reticent
about stretching their boundaries and trying new things particularly
if they involve athletics. What if it isn't "cool"?
What if I am terrible at this and everyone sees? Through Debbie's
positive attitude and the environment of encouragement that
she provided, all of our students tried their hand at disc
golf. At the end of the day, I overheard one less-than-athletic
participant say to another, "I didn't think that I was
going to like this. But that was pretty fun."
Thanks to Debbie, the gospel of disc golf was spread to a
new generation and new players were created.

Last year's disc
golf clinic that you hosted in Tega Cay was a huge hit! You
came out and helped everyone, from little kids who had never
even thrown a disc before all the way to folks like myself
who have been playing for many years, improve and enjoy the
sport even more. The drills you showed us were very memorable
and easy to practice by ourselves later on. Many of my F3
friends are asking if you can come do another clinic this
year--Hope you can! I want to show you how much better my
game has improved thanks to your clinic. My friend Chad has
come a long way as well. Our distance off the tee is at least
30% further and targeting the "Easy Circle" has
helped us lower our scores. We often score from a couple over
par to couple under after 18 holes. Without your clinic to
help us, there is no way we would have improved so much. Let
me know if an early autumn clinic will work for you again
this year-Thanks again!

I have been blessed
to work with Debbie Scott for at least the last five years.
She is always eager to teach anyone about the sport of disc
golf. She has spent countless hours teaching all interested
in learning more about the sport and refining their skills.
She spends a lot of her time and energy to assure the success
of all of those that she teaches. She has a heart for God
and passion for disc golf.
Debbie’s love for this sport has recently had a huge
impact on my family. My nephew who has
only enjoyed camp for a year now has a love of disc golf.
Debbie took the time to help him
understand the sport and redirect his skills.
For Christmas the one gift that my nephew really wanted was
a disc golf basket. When I arrived
at their home the only gift that he wanted to show me was
his new basket. While he was showing and telling me all about
it he also wanted to show me all the accessories that he had
gotten as well. With every accessory that was told about Debbie’s
name was mentioned as well. Every time he showed me how to
throw he mentioned, “This is exactly how Miss Debbie
showed me to throw the disc.”
Since this gift he has aggravated my brother to take him
to the nearest course for them to play. He is so excited that
if he cannot go to a course that he could now practice at
home.
Debbie Scott has had a tremendous impact on my nephew and
family. She has a passion for this sport and loves teaching
anyone about disc golf.

Some of the great things
Debbie has done for our club is travel to Newport News VA
to run a clinic. She has the ability to teach something new
to any skill level player! Her patience with teaching children
is amazing and my children (ages 9 and 11) love going to her
clinics! She is very hands on and her way of teaching is very
fun and interactive!
I look forward in having Debbie run another clinic hopefully
at our A-tier in November

In the summer, we try
to provide opportunities for our Cub Scouts to get out and
participate in fun activities. Debbie has provided a disc
golf clinic for our boys (Grade1 - Grade 5) in the fundamentals
so that they could earn their Ultimate Belt Loop. I have provided
the requirements for the belt loop below.
Belt Loop
Complete these three requirements:
1. Explain the rules of ultimate or disc golf to your leader
or adult partner.
2. Spend at least 30 minutes practicing ultimate or disc
golf skills.
3. Participate in a game of ultimate or disc golf
The clinic was was informative, fun and engaging for all
ages of scouts. Some of the boys had never touched a disc
before, much less participated in a formal activity and some
were experienced disc golfers (not very many). Debbie was
able to take the boys at their current level and move them
forward so that everyone learned and everyone had fun. It
was a great class! Thanks!

I have known Debbie
Scott for a number of years now, and I cannot think of anyone
who is more passionate about helping others than her. She
uses disc golf as a means to encourage, motivate, and serve
others. Furthermore, she sacrifices much of her time by serving
the needs of the children who attend Carolina Bible Camp in
Mocksville, North Carolina. She serves in a number of capacities
at this camp, one being the conducting of disc golf clinics.
My children, my friends, and myself have all been exposed
to disc golf through Debbie. Many of the children she serves
would not be exposed to the sport otherwise. Not only does
she teach the game, but teaches the children to play the right
way with the right attitude. Also, she is a faithful Christian
who represents her Lord and herself in a way that is honorable
and worthy of our respect. I consider myself and my family
fortunate for having a friend like Debbie.
