What Ambassadors do
Ambassadors are the connection between a disc golf course and the UDisc community. In practice that means:
Keeping the course map accurate — tees, targets, fairways, and layouts
Updating course details when things change — hours, fees, closures, amenities
Adding photos so players know what to expect before they arrive
Using course data to track impact and advocate for the sport in their community
It's a volunteer role. There's no paycheck, but there are real tools and real perks that make it worthwhile.
What you get access to
Once approved, Ambassadors get access to a suite of Course Tools that can be accessed from UDisc.com/dashboard:
Mapping & layouts
Map Manager — Place and update tee positions, target locations, and fairways
Layout Builder — Create Smart Layouts that sync automatically with your map
Quick Targets — Update basket positions fast when pins move
Data & insights
Course Statistics — See play counts, recreation hours, unique players, tourism data, and hole-by-hole scoring
Fact Sheet — Download a shareable summary of your course's impact for advocacy with parks departments or municipalities
Course page
Photos tab — Upload and organize course photos
Course details — Edit hours, fees, amenities, accessibility info, and more
Perks
Free UDisc course signs — Physical signs with QR codes that link players directly to your course listing
Monthly impact reports — A deeper look at how your course is being used
Who makes a good Ambassador?
The best fit is someone who's already invested in the course — someone who knows when the baskets move, when the hours change, or when a new tee pad goes in. That might be:
A club member or club officer
A parks department employee or official
A pro shop owner or course manager
A dedicated local player who's out there every week
You don't need to be technical. The tools are built to be used on your phone while you're walking the course.
Note: Looking to compare stats across many courses in your city or state, rather than maintain them? You don't need to apply as an Ambassador for each one — ask to talk to a person in the chat for a custom data report instead.
What's expected
Ambassadors are asked to keep course information current, review their course page at least once a year, and respond when their accuracy rating drops. Ambassadors who are inactive for 12 months or more may be removed from the role, though they can always reapply.
For the full breakdown of responsibilities and policies, see 📋 Course Ambassador Guidelines & Expectations.

Already an Ambassador? Invite someone else
If you're an existing Ambassador looking to bring someone on, you can invite them directly from your Course Dashboard. See 🤝 Managing Course Ambassadors for instructions.
Can I find out who the Course Ambassador is for a course?
Course Ambassadors aren't publicly listed on course pages. If you notice something that needs updating — incorrect mapping, missing information — ask to talk to a person in the chat, and we can either connect you with the Ambassador or help get it updated directly.
