Beginning in 2026:
- All Complete Members will receive a Standard Annual Bag Tag. Tags will be numbered like previous years, and distributed in the order memberships are renewed. These tags are perfect for casual play, league challenges, and weekly events like Thursday Tags at Bellis.
- Members who want a more structured, competitive experience may now opt into a separate Competitive Tag Program.
- The program includes Quarterly Competitive Tag Rounds at Bellis Fairways, Mossy Roc, and Blaine, with a season finale back at Mossy Roc.
- Competitive Tags are earned only through these quarterly events and tracked throughout the season on Discord.
- Once earned, Competitive Tags can be challenged and played for at any time throughout the season, not only at organized events. Players may coordinate matches casually or through Discord.
- Top 10 tag holders will have reporting responsibilities and attendance requirements to maintain accurate standings.
Why the change?
As our club has grown, so has the appetite for more organized competition. This structure allows us to keep the Annual Tag Program fun and accessible, while offering a higher-level competitive track for those who want more structured progression, accountability, and community engagement.
How to join the Competitive Tag Program:
- Pay the $10 competitive buy-in.
- Join the WDGC Discord, where communication and tag reporting will take place.
- Attend the March kickoff at Bellis Fairways to earn your tag.
- If you miss the March kickoff or decide later you'd like to join the Competitve Tag Program, you can do so by attending the next quarterly event.
Additional notes:
- Quarterly events will only charge a $1 donation which goes directly toward course maintenance at the hosting location.
- Registration and scoring of quarterly tag events will take place via uDisc.
- If demand continues to grow, we may expand the program to monthly events and increase the number of competitive tags available.
- Standard Annual Tags and Competitive Tags are distinct and cannot be played for against each other.
We are excited to bring this updated structure to the club and create a more dynamic, engaging Bag Tag season for players at every level. To learn more, read the complete rules, and join the conversation, find the Competive Bag Tag channel in the Whatcom Disc Golf Club Discord Server.
