Shizuoka Flying Disc Association for Persons with impairments and Namaste Nepal Shizuoka collaborated to demonstrate the flying disc competition for people with impairments in Shizuoka Prefecture. We also held a small tournament for local people with impairments to promote health and international exchange through sports.
Through this competition, we promoted the flying disc as a sport that can be enjoyed by anyone, anytime, anywhere, regardless of disability, age, or gender.
Gold, silver, and bronze medals and souvenirs were given to the top three students and the equipment was brought from Japan. (50 discs, 2 goals) were donated to support future activities.

Feedback from Organizer :
Many people participated in sports for the first time in their life. It seemed that the tension gradually eased, and they enjoyed it from the bottom of their heart. I would like to continue these activities in the future.
