How To: Become a PDGA Member | Disc Golf Station

Before I tell you how, let me tell you why.

Why join the PDGA?

The Professional Disc Golf Association is the governing body of the sport of disc golf. It oversees the majority disc golf tournaments, regulates the sport itself, holds national and world championships as well as a national tour of Pro tourneys, tracks scores and stats for all current, registered members, and promotes the sport of disc golf (some say frisbee golf) around the nation and world. In addition, with the annual membership, you will receive a subscription to Discgolfer Magazine which keeps you updated on everything disc golf. It costs 50 bucks. You will get a handful of goodies when you first sign up that includes an official Member Card, Lifetime Member Number, PDGA Logo Disc, PDGA Mini Marker w/ personalized Member Number, PDGA Sticker, and Rulebook. It's well worth it. You will also get to play all PDGA sanctioned tournaments at a discounted rate. Plus, you should do it just 'cause. Seriously, sign up. Here's how.
