PGA of BC LAUNCHES CHAMPIONSHIP HISTORY HUB
The PGA of BC is proud to introduce the Association's Championship History hub, a new feature now available at pgabc.org.

For the very first time, the results of all eight of the PGA of BC's active championships in the Association's modern era (1970-present) are now centralized in one location for public reference. Each tournament's winner and host venue by year are listed here, in addition to winning scores, runners-up and more information where available.

Click below to access the Championship History hub. This link will now be permanently available on our website under the "Events" tab.

As some of our records for these events remain incomplete, we encourage anyone to assist the administration team in adding any information to the Championship History hub that may be missing. Please contact eric@pgabc.org with any information that can be included.

The administration team will also be examining the records of the Association's retired championships and adding them to these listings on an ongoing basis.
CONSIDER RUNNING FOR SEAT ON PGA of BC BOARD OF DIRECTORS
The PGA of BC Board of Directors encourages all qualified members to consider putting their name forward for a board position term that will commence in 2020. 
 
There will be four (4) openings on the board becoming available via election in the new year. The individuals filling those positions will be determined by a membership vote taking place in late January. 

Regional quotas will be confirmed closer to the formal campaign period, but at least one director elected in 2020 must be a Vancouver Island representative. 

All positions are two-year terms. Candidates must be Class "A" Professionals in order to be considered.
