No question, regardless of any politics.
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.
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.
We are happy to announce that the Freestyle Disc Hall of Fame Committee will be accepting nominations for individuals who initiated their freestyle disc journey in 1984 or earlier.
.
The nomination window will be open from October 1st to December 31st, 2023.
This is your opportunity to honor those individuals who have contributed significantly to the growth and evolution of freestyle disc. Their dedication and passion have left an indelible mark on our community, and it is only fitting that we recognize their outstanding achievements.
Here’s a message from the Warsaw crew, including some useful information about the FPA World Championship 2024:

Friends!
As a lot of you are already starting to plan the trip to Poland, we are super excited to officially announce the date and location of FPAW2024 in Warsaw.
The tournament will take place from the 14th to the 18th of August 2024. Wednesday to Sunday with finals on Saturday. The main event will take place on KS Drukarz Field in Skaryszewski Park. The spot is very close to the city center and main train stations.
.
As a backup, we will have a large gym preferably close by, big enough to easily run the tournament and have a place for free jams as well.
One week after FPAW we are organizing our annual beach ultimate & freestyle tournament SandSlash 22-25.08.2024 in Dębki. We strongly encourage you to extend your stay in Poland and join us also for the afterparty on the beautiful beach.
As we are currently working on preparations and planning, we need to collect basic informations from you. If you are at least considering attendance we would like you to fill this pre-registration form. It is NOT a tournament registration, it is only intended to estimate the number of people willing to come to Warsaw for FPAW 2024 14-18.08.2024 and maybe also join SandSlash 22-25.08.2024.
We will share the final registration form as soon as we know all the necessary information and costs.
More to come soon! We can’t wait to see you all and for you to see Warsaw and have a great time!

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.
