Receptacle for catching a disc

A method of playing disc golf, the method comprising:

• selecting a disc golf course having one or more disc golf holes, each disc golf hole including a green area having a playing surface and a receptacle for each disc golf hole, each receptacle comprising:
• a substantially vertically extending sidewall presenting an upper edge, a lower edge, an inner surface and an outer surface having an upper portion that extends to the upper edge;
• and
• a floor connected to the sidewall at an outer edge of the floor, the floor and the inner surface of the sidewall defining an open-topped interior chamber configured for receiving and retaining the disc, the floor having a funnel shape and a plurality of radial holes for draining rainwater from the interior chamber and a central hole for receiving a flagpole therein,
• a receptacle being installed in the playing surface of the green area of each disc golf hole such that an upper portion of the sidewall of the receptacle extends from approximately 0.125 inches to approximately 5 inches above the playing surface;
• attempting a first throw of the disc into the interior chamber of the receptacle of one of the disc golf holes by throwing, skipping, or bouncing the disc higher than the upper edge of the sidewall or rolling the disc along the playing surface and over the upper edge of the sidewall, wherein the disc will be blocked and rejected from the interior chamber by the upper portion of the outer surface of the sidewall when flying lower than the upper edge or sliding along the playing surface;
• and
• attempting a second throw of the disc into the interior chamber of the receptacle from the location that the disc landed from the first throw attempt when the disc is not retained in the interior chamber of the receptacle by throwing, skipping, or bouncing the disc higher than the upper edge of the sidewall or rolling the disc along the playing surface and over the upper edge of the sidewall, wherein the disc will be blocked and rejected from the interior chamber by the upper portion of the outer surface of the sidewall when flying lower than the upper edge or sliding along the playing surface.
