A new program for educating TDs

The PDGA’s new Tournament Director Training Program will go live in early April 2025.  This free online training course, authored by PDGA’s Support and Training Team, consists of 18 "holes" — or lessons — and covers a full range of subjects that TDs need to know, including:   

  • PDGA Tiers and Event Standards 
  • Event Scheduling and Sanctioning   
  • Tournament Registration using Disc Golf Scene   
  • Use of Tournament Manager and Tournament Central   
  • Rulings at Events   
  • PDGA Ratings

The lessons include instructional videos, photos and graphical elements, practice activities for Disc Golf Scene and Tournament Manager, and quizzes at the end of each hole. The entire program is fully interactive and allows you to move at your own pace.  Graduation from the program requires completion of all 18 holes with a score of 70% or better on each hole.

Along with comprehensive knowledge of the TD role, graduates of the TD Training Program will receive recognition via the PDGA website and social media accounts.
