New Event Support Helpline Launched by PDGA for TDs

The Professional Disc Golf Association (PDGA) is proud to announce the launch of its Event Support Helpline, a dedicated resource designed specifically for PDGA Event Directors. This new initiative aims to provide timely assistance and support to event organizers, helping them navigate various aspects of hosting successful disc golf events.

At the heart of this innovative project are the members of the PDGA's Event Support Team (EST), who will be available to address a range of questions and concerns. Whether it's troubleshooting issues with event management software, clarifying rules and regulations, or providing guidance on best practices for organizing events, the EST is committed to offering expert support.

As part of this expansion, Rebecca Duffy has joined the EST as a third Event Support & Training Manager. With an impressive background in disc golf, including experience as a player, event director, and marshal, Duffy brings a wealth of knowledge and expertise to the team. Her involvement on the PDGA Board of Directors, where she served as President from 2011-2018, further underscores her commitment to the sport.

"We're thrilled to welcome Rebecca Duffy to our Event Support Team," said Andrew Sweeton, Director of Event Support. "Her extensive experience in disc golf and event management will undoubtedly benefit our Event Directors and help elevate the overall quality of events."

The EST now consists of five highly skilled professionals, all dedicated to providing direct support to PDGA Event Directors. This team includes Sweeton, Duffy, Todd Lion, Amber Schoch, and Mike "Sully" Sullivan. Their combined expertise ensures that event organizers receive comprehensive assistance in areas such as sanctioning, planning, and operations.

Event directors can access the Event Support Helpline through various channels, including email and phone numbers listed below. During off-hours or US holidays, while some additional hours of coverage may be available on a "best efforts" basis, it's recommended to use the email address for optimal results.

The PDGA encourages all event organizers to take advantage of this valuable resource, which will undoubtedly contribute to the success and growth of disc golf events worldwide.
