Utah’s disc golf
authority.
ElevateUT Disc Golf is a Utah 501(c)(3) nonprofit (EIN 92-2719419) founded in 2022 in Salt Lake City. We help municipalities fund, design, and build professional disc golf courses across Utah. Since founding, ElevateUT has secured over $701,000 in public funding through UORG, TAP, and city-match grants, resulting in courses including The Arena in West Jordan, River Bottoms in Draper, Dragonfly in Lehi, and the Wasatch Wunder in Midway. The organization operates weekly leagues serving hundreds of active players, contributes thousands of volunteer hours annually, and secured hosting rights for the 2026 US Women’s Disc Golf Championship — the first PDGA Major in Utah since 2021.

Four pillars.
One playbook.
Every dollar, every hour, every basket we install rolls up into one of these four. If it doesn’t, we don’t do it.
Fund
We write grants, run fundraisers, and partner with municipalities to put public funding behind professional courses.
Build
We know the designers, the contractors, and the process. We help cities build courses to the same professional standard as any other park amenity.
Sustain
Leagues fund ongoing maintenance through the Course Improvement Fund. The community that plays the course keeps it alive — year-round, not just opening day.
Grow
Leagues, clinics, women’s nights, junior development. Professional courses need players — we grow the community that fills them.
