Our Mission and Bylaws

The purpose of the Olympic Peninsula Disc Golf Association (OPDGA) is multifaceted. First, it is to support educational programs that promote awareness of the sport of disc golf to the local community. Secondly, OPDGA focuses on improvement of the local disc golf infrastructure through the support of new disc golf course development along with
improvements and maintenance to existing disc golf courses. Finally, OPDGA promotes
events that foster growth of the sport that reflects a positive family friendly spirit of disc golf and aids in the proper growth of the sport, development, and professional presentation to the general public.

Education, improvement, fostering growth and community involvement. These are the
cornerstones of the Olympic Peninsula Disc Golf Association.

Why disc golf? The OPDGA and the members of the greater disc golf community believe that our sport is unequaled in providing recreation, exercise, companionship, fun, and contact with nature. Players of all ages and ability levels can have an inexpensive and fun sport to enjoy for the rest of their lives. And reflecting this, the growth of disc golf has been dramatic.

OPDGA is a non-profit, charitable organization. When giving to a charitable organization, like the OPDGA, you receive a tax-deductible receipt for the total value of the donation made. You can help a worthy cause and get a tax relief at the same time. The Board of Directors of the OPDGA is a group of dedicated and experienced members of the disc golf community and community at large. They generously donate their time and expertise in a completely voluntary manner.

Our vision includes:

  • Partner with the YMCA on youth disc golf education, training and playing.
    Host a kids and family clinic at Rainshadow disc golf park.
  • Investigate the feasibility of an Olympic Peninsula high school program.
    Signing an agreement with Clallam County Parks and Recreation department to
