European Disc Golf Leaders Sought for Historic PDGA Europe Board Role

Date Published

The Professional Disc Golf Association (PDGA) is calling for talented and passionate individuals to join its European Board of Directors as it transitions towards greater autonomy in the region. This historic step forward will see four elected members from different countries take on key responsibilities in governing and developing disc golf across Europe.


Applications are now open for candidates to run for a position on the PDGA Europe Board, with elections set to take place online between July 1st and 31st, 2017. Successful applicants will serve a three-year term beginning September 1st, 2017. The ideal candidates will be those who can bring fresh ideas, enthusiasm, and a commitment to growing disc golf in the region.


The Board's main responsibilities will include setting policies for PDGA Europe, overseeing ongoing operations, financial management, and establishing committees. Members will also be expected to represent their countries' visions for the sport's future and communicate with other stakeholders.


Individual board members can expect to dedicate between 15-20 hours of their time per month, with initial tasks including drafting a constitution, appointing an executive team, and negotiating agreements with national associations. Candidates must hold citizenship or residence status in a European country, be active PDGA members, and have relevant skills such as management, marketing, finance, or strategic planning experience.


To stand out from the competition, candidates are encouraged to produce a video message outlining their goals and vision for disc golf in Europe. This innovative approach will allow voters to better understand each candidate's qualifications and priorities.
