The PGA of Canada is currently seeking nominations for two at-large positions on its Board of Directors. The volunteer positions are open to both members and non-members.
The PGA of Canada updated its Board of Directors composition in 2023 to add these positions, a cutting-edge governance practice that achieves a key objective in the organization’s strategic plan, to diversify the skills and professional backgrounds of the leadership.
The elected individuals, one who will serve a two-year term and another individual who will serve a three-year term, will be full voting members on the Board and are essential in the governance of the organization, ensuring the implementation of the organization’s strategic plan and that the needs of the 4,100 PGA of Canada members across Canada are at the forefront of conversation and decision making.
The nominating committee is looking to solicit gender balance and/or traditionally underrepresented groups who have experience, skills and expertise in one or more of the following areas:
- Environment, social responsibility, governance
- Nonprofit governance experience
- Risk management
- Legal
- Regulatory (fiscal, governmental, funding, legal regulatory)
Nomination application deadline – November 25, 2025
More information can be found on the nomination form, which can be found here.
The elected candidates will be responsible for attending a minimum of one in-person meeting each year, as well as one virtual meeting each quarter. Depending on circumstances, there may be other meetings called throughout the year, and the opportunity to join various committees may arise.
The strength of the PGA of Canada comes from the expertise of those trusted with seats at the decision-making table. As a board member, the elected candidates will be trusted to use their knowledge and passion to help lead important discussions and make decisions that will drive the industry forward for both colleagues and future generations.
More than ever, we want you to have your voice heard. If you have expertise in the above-identified skills and would like to help shape the direction of the PGA of Canada, empowering golf professionals from coast-to-coast to grow the game and earn a fair living wage, we encourage you to apply for a leadership position on the association’s Board of Directors.
