With over 60 key volunteer positions up for election, this is an excellent opportunity for dedicated individuals to make a lasting impact on the sport they love.

Each year, half of the U.S. State and Canadian Province Coordinator positions become available for election, with two-year terms allowing Coordinators to make significant contributions to their regions.

Serving as liaisons between event staff and the PDGA's Event Support Team

Maintaining accurate records of disc golf courses and providing feedback on tour standards

Promoting the Affiliate Clubs Program and other PDGA initiatives to regional members
