B

Naomi Cooke was walking with a friend and their dogs through her local park in Burnside, on Tuesday when

she heard someone shout to watch out. Cooke turned and hardly had time to react before a flying disc hit her in

the face with a "big bang”, leaving her right cheek swollen almost to the size of a golfball.

Two men playing disc golf at the course in Jellie Park were about 20 metres fromthe pairwhen one of them

threw the disc hard, aiming for a nearby goal.

After being hit Cooke immediately went to the emergency department, where two CT scans on her face and

cheek found she had escaped any broken bones. "I'm lucky it didn't hit my eye because I think I would have lost

it." Cooke said.

Cooke often walks her dog at the park and said it was always busy with people playing disc golf, but it was not

until after Tuesday that she became concerned about public safety there.

There were no signs about the disc golf course in the park, she said, and the area is shared with children and

people walking their dogs.

“If it had hit one of the kids in the head, it could have killed them.” Cooke did not think she was the only

person who had been hit before, and said there would be others who share her concerns.

Cooke planned to go to the council, saying it needed to realise how dangerous it was for the space to be

shared by everyone and to provide disc golfers with a space where they can play safely. "There should be rules

about how it's done, making it safe for everyone.”
