The Professional Disc Golf Association (PDGA) is now accepting proposals from clubs, convention and visitor's bureaus, and other organizations to host its 2021 Majors. The bidding process, which runs from July 1 through November 1, 2019, offers a unique opportunity for locations around the world to showcase their disc golf facilities and welcome top professional and amateur players.

The PDGA is seeking bids to host six major championships in 2021: the United States Women's Disc Golf Championship, the Tim Selinske U.S. Masters Championship, the Professional Disc Golf World Championship, the Masters Disc Golf World Championships, the Junior Disc Golf World Championships, and the Amateur Disc Golf World Championships. Each event will offer a unique experience for competitors, spectators, and supporters, with ample time for hosts to prepare and ensure a high-quality event.

For each championship, the PDGA requires a host with experience running large sanctioned disc golf events, suitable facilities, and proximity of courses/venues to each other. Bids can be submitted individually or in combination, allowing communities to bid on hosting multiple events simultaneously. New formats have been introduced for the Amateur and Masters World Championships, featuring stand-alone events for top amateurs and age-based divisions competing alongside professionals.

In addition to individual event bids, the PDGA now offers the option to bid on a combined World Championship, which can include various formats such as Pro/Am, Open/Masters, and more. This new opportunity is designed to cater to bidding communities with diverse resources and capabilities.

"The PDGA is thrilled to receive bids from around the world for its 2021 Majors," said Michael Downes, Director of Operations at the PDGA. "As our sport continues to grow in popularity, we see an increasing demand to bid on and participate in a PDGA Major. We're excited to see the bar raised as these events continue to grow, and we look forward to reviewing bids from interested communities."

The general bidding guidelines can be found in a single document, providing clarity on expectations for hosting a PDGA Major. Event-specific guidelines are detailed in separate documents, ensuring that each host is aware of individual requirements.

The PDGA would like to extend its gratitude to dedicated volunteers, tournament directors, event sponsors, city hosts, and all others involved in making these events possible. As the organization looks forward to the future of its Major Championships, it invites interested communities to submit their bids and become a part of this exciting global disc golf experience.
