Frisbees catching public attention

Costs for playing frisbee range from 100-150 yuan ($14.9-$22.4) per player, and organizers generally make a gross profit of 1,000-3,000 yuan.

It is solely up to each club to set a price for the event organization and training and to decide about buying insurance for participants, says Chen Shuo, a manager with the YJ frisbee club in Beijing.

"The competitors' welfare might not be guaranteed," Chen says.

Chen hopes standards will be set up for the industry in the future, such as professional institutes to certify trainers and matches.

Qu has just signed himself up for an advanced training program in July.

"I want to keep exploring frisbee and involve more of my friends," Qu says, adding that he's particularly drawn to the game's golden rule of treating others how you would want to be treated.

"The non-contact policy is extremely good for beginners, and encourages my female friends to join us and play," he says.
