Dear Freestylers,
As we usher in a new chapter for the FPA, it is with immense gratitude and excitement that we extend our heartfelt thanks to Thomas Nötzel and Jens Velasquez for their service as Competition Director and Education Director, respectively. Their unwavering dedication and passion have played a pivotal role in shaping the freestyle frisbee community, and we are very grateful for their contributions.
.
Thomas Nötzel, as Competition Director, has tirelessly worked as TD and helped the judging panel during the biggest competitions work smoothly.
.
Jens Velasquez, as Education Director, has been a driving force with workshops in the US that have enriched our community and demos that expanded our audience.
.
As we look forward to seeing Thomas and Jens during our meetings and competitions as members of our community, we warmly welcome two new members to the FPA Board – Tymek Wrotek and Toby Künzel!
Tymek brings a young and fresh perspective, while Toby’s passion for teaching freestyle frisbee; this makes them valuable additions to our team. We are excited to work with Tymek and Toby as they take on the roles of Competition Director and Education Director, respectively.

No question, regardless of any politics.
Without a doubt!
Gerry “Circus” Lynas has been running disc events, designing discs, logo’s, promotional materials and more, since disc’s earliest days! He designed the original FPA Logo.
John Jewell, one of the great west coast players. Iconic beach jammer. Very deserving.
Johnny Dwork sounds good to me, too.
Bill Wright, Skippy Jammer (a.k.a. Kevin Givens), FPA would not have existed without these two!! And they both run superb events!
People doing show for decades have done as much or more to promote the sport as people involved in tournaments. Jay Moldenhauer has been doing shows and turning tens of thousands of people on to freestyle and disc sports with Flying Aces since the late 70’s. He is also the 2 time world Footbag champ and a member of the Footbag HOF.
I recognize a lot of these names and have many great memories! joey remember the trip to colorado in your van
