The votes have been counted for the 2025 PDGA Elections, a month-long process that saw 101,155 ballots sent to eligible members. Of those, an impressive 10,292 votes were returned, marking a participation rate of 10.17%. This is slightly lower than last year's turnout of 10.65%.


A key aspect of the election process was the selection of two new at-large board members for the PDGA Board of Directors. In accordance with the organization's bylaws, these positions require a ballot vote to ensure nonprofit status. The two candidates who garnered the most votes will serve three-year terms from September 1, 2025, to August 31, 2028.


The results are now official, and we extend our warmest congratulations to the following PDGA members on their election to the PDGA Board of Directors:


Their skills and expertise will undoubtedly be valuable assets to the board. The newly elected members' names can be found in the full PDGA Election Results.


The PDGA Europe also held its own election, with three positions up for grabs. We are pleased to congratulate the two new PDGA Europe board members who will join the team.


In addition to these high-profile elections, State Coordinators and Provincial Coordinators were also on the ballot. These vital roles are crucial in promoting disc golf within their regions. Each year, approximately half of the United States and Canadian Province Coordinators are elected to serve two-year terms. We would like to extend our congratulations to the new Coordinators who have been chosen for these positions.


The candidates who secured the most votes and will take office on September 1 can be found in the table below:

PDGA staff will be reaching out to SC/PC winners on Monday, August 4th, to confirm their acceptance of the position. We would like to express our gratitude to all outgoing State and Provincial Coordinators as well as Board Members for their dedication to the betterment of the association and the sport of disc golf.


We appreciate your participation in the 2025 PDGA Elections! Your input is invaluable in shaping the future of disc golf.
