Get Ready to Break Records at the 2016 PDGA Women's Global Event!

The wait is over! Mark your calendars for Saturday, May 14, 2016, as the PDGA Women's Global Event (WGE) is set to take place around the world. This exciting event brings together women from diverse backgrounds and skill levels to compete in a global tournament that's fun, inclusive, and supportive.

The WGE is designed to encourage more women to participate in disc golf by providing an accessible and welcoming environment. With divisions for all players, regardless of their experience or skill level, this event offers the perfect opportunity for newcomers to try out the sport. The PDGA has lowered fees to make it even easier for women to join in on the fun.

Here's how the event works: on May 14th, participants will play two rounds of disc golf at their local participating Women's Global Event site. Scores from each round will be submitted by individual tournament directors and rated by the PDGA. These ratings will be combined to determine each player's "Global Score," which will then be used to declare winners in each division.

To ensure accurate ratings, participating events must include two rounds of play with at least three PDGA-certified players on the same course layout for each round. The Global Scores will be updated throughout the day to determine the Women's Global Event Champions. Winners will receive a commemorative trophy to celebrate their global victory.

In 2014, the WGE broke records with over 1,060 participants from 60 events across 27 states and six countries. Will we beat that number in 2016? With the continued growth of disc golf, it's likely that this event will attract even more women from around the world.

Looking back at previous years, we can see just how far the WGE has come:

* 2012: 575 participants, 41 events, 24 states, and four countries

* 2014: 1,060 participants, 60 events, 27 states, and six countries

So mark your calendars for May 14th and start planning! More information can be found on the PDGA Women's Global Event page. Register now and be part of this incredible event that celebrates women in disc golf.
