Join the Ranks: Leadership Opportunities in Disc Golf

Disc golf is rapidly expanding its reach in every area, from packed local courses to competitive tournaments and growing membership numbers. The Professional Disc Golf Association (PDGA) needs motivated individuals who are passionate about the sport to take on leadership roles and help shape its future. If you're a disc golfer looking for a new challenge or a way to give back, consider running for one of the available positions.

The PDGA is seeking candidates for three positions on the Global Board of Directors, responsible for making key decisions regarding the sport's development globally. Additionally, there are openings on the Europe Board of Directors and 30 State and Provincial Coordinator positions available. These roles offer an excellent opportunity to bring fresh ideas, perspectives, and expertise to the table.

As a PDGA member, you have the right to participate in the election process. An open nomination system allows candidates to showcase their skills, experience, and vision for the sport's growth. If elected, board members will serve from September 1, with elections taking place online from July 1-31, 2021.

To be considered for a position, applicants must submit their Candidate Biography Questionnaire by the specified deadlines: May 31 for Global Board candidates, June 14 for Europe Board candidates, and June 21 for State and Provincial Coordinators. Candidates are encouraged to create a three-to-five minute video sharing their vision and ideas for disc golf's future, which will be linked in their questionnaire.

The PDGA Bylaws require the establishment of a board to ensure the organization maintains its 501-C-4 nonprofit status. By serving on the board, you'll have the chance to contribute to shaping the sport's direction and contributing to its continued growth.

If you're ready for the next step in your disc golf journey or want to make a meaningful contribution to the sport, consider running for one of these leadership positions. Don't miss this opportunity to take your passion to new heights!
