Governance

This page explains how the English Disc Golf Association (EDGA) is governed and how decisions are made on behalf of members.

EDGA follows good practice for sports governance. The aim is clear decision making, published records, and transparent elections for Board roles.

Board and officers

The Board sets strategy, agrees budgets, and oversees key policies. Officers and working groups carry out day to day work within the framework set by the Board and the membership.

Details of current roles and post holders are listed on the Board and officers page.

Annual General Meeting

The Annual General Meeting (AGM) is where members receive reports, review accounts, ask questions, and vote on elections and motions that shape the direction of Disc Golf England.

Information about future and recent meetings is published on the AGM page once dates and papers are confirmed.

Improving governance

EDGA is moving from its historic BDGA structure towards a more modern model that meets current expectations for sport governance in England. This includes clearer policies, stronger safeguarding, better data on participation, and more regular communication with members.

Updates on these changes will be shared through news and official updates and in reports to the AGM.
