PDGA A-Tier Event Request

Please read and understand the PDGA Tour Standards document to familiarize yourself with the requirements for running a PDGA sanctioned A-tier event before completing the form below to submit your request. Note: this is not an event sanctioning agreement; this is only a request to sanction your event as an A-tier on the 2025 PDGA TourIf your event is approved as an A-Tier for 2025, you will still need to meet all sanctioning requirements, complete a sanctioning form, and pay the $100 sanctioning fee. Note that making an A-Tier request does not guarantee an event will receive A-Tier status due to the limited availability in the schedule for A-Tiers with their higher mileage restrictions.

Due date: Friday, September 20th
