Television coverage has become a critical factor in the development, demand and popularity of modern sports. Wouldn't it be great to tune in to Grandstand one day and see some World Class disc action? One day.. On the journey to a slot after 'Football Focus', this year's British Open featured on the world-wide weekly sports show Transworld Sport. The feature was fairly brief and they called it Frisbee golf, however the clip was rescued by a Bud Tilton putt falling dreadfully short! Although it was only a small feature, literally millions of people would have seen it and hopefully enjoyed it. At Last Cilla! Derek Robins appears on the Cilla Black game show, 'Moment of Truth', September 19. Another sports programme 'RAD' covered the sport on August 29. The coverage featured action from the Middlesex Challenge Cup at Elthorne Park last January. The disc golf coverage was followed by a good piece on ultimate.
