Take Control of Disc Golf Course Listings on PDGA.com
Date Published
The PDGA Course Directory is a valuable resource for disc golf enthusiasts worldwide. However, it's not always up-to-date with the latest information. As someone who has played on courses that aren't listed in the directory, you might have wondered why they're missing or how to get them added. The good news is that anyone can contribute to keeping the course listings accurate and comprehensive.
Cliff Towne, the PDGA Course Directory Editor, isn't all-knowing or all-seeing. He relies on volunteers like yourself to report changes or additions to existing courses. With over 1,200 unlisted courses in the US alone, it's a significant task to keep track of every disc golf course that exists.
If you've ever thought about adding a new course to the directory or making edits to an existing one, now is the perfect opportunity. The process is straightforward and only requires a user account on PDGA.com, which can be created even if you're not a PDGA member. To start contributing, follow these steps:
1. Log in to your PDGA.com account or create one if you don't have one already.
2. Click on "Courses" at the top of any page and select "Add New Course."
3. Fill out the required information, including course name, number of holes, description, address, country, street number, city, state/province (if applicable), postal code, and other details as you have them.
4. If a course already exists, make sure to verify its existence before adding it anew.
5. Once you've entered all the information, click the "Save" button at the bottom of the page.
As a contributor, you can also edit existing courses by following these steps:
1. Open the specific course page that requires editing.
2. Click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the page.
3. Locate the specific tab(s) where information needs to be edited and make the necessary changes.
4. When finished, click the "Save" button at the bottom of the page.
If you're unable to find the section for making edits or don't have time to do it yourself, there's another option: leave a note with your observations in the "Revision Information" field. This will send a message directly to the PDGA Course Directory admins about what needs to be done.
Lastly, if a course no longer exists or needs to be removed for some reason, please follow the same process as leaving a note, explaining why it should be deleted from the directory.
By contributing to the accuracy of disc golf course listings on PDGA.com, you'll be helping the community as a whole and ensuring that everyone has access to the most up-to-date information about courses around the world. So take control and start making a difference today!
