May 12, 2012 is a day to mark in the history books of Women's Disc Golf. To follow in the footsteps of last year's Global Tournament, the PDGA and PDGA Women's Committee will be hosting the inaugural Women's Global Event. We invite women from all over the world to take part in this groundbreaking event!

So, What exactly is a Women's Global Event, you ask?

Here are the details: On May 12, 2012 women from all around the world will play two rounds of disc golf during their local global event. The scores for the two rounds will be submitted and rated by the PDGA. The round ratings will be added to determine the player's "Global Score."

For the rounds to qualify the event must include two rounds on the same layout on the same course and also have five players rated 800+ (male or female) to keep the ratings consistent across the competition. The global scores will be updated and ranked throughout the day to find our overall Women's Global Event Champions.

We will be offering all Pro and Am divisions and you do not have to be a current PDGA member to play. This event has been coordinated to make it as accessible as possible to encourage more women to get out and play!

We will be accepting applications for local global event organizers on Tuesday, February 21, 2012. Stay tuned to www.pdga.com for more updates!

Once we are able to set up registered global events, we will start taking individual player registrations. For more Women's Global Event details, FAQ's, and sponsorship information/application, please visit www.DiscGolf4Women.com!
