Awards
2026 PGA of BC Member Nominations Now Open!
The PGA of British Columbia Awards Celebration presented by Golf Trends Inc. is held annually each fall in concert with our Trade Show. These honours recognize the individuals and golf facilities that are leaders in our Association, and acknowledging and honouring them helps elevate the profile of every PGA of BC member in the eyes of the golfing public.
More than a dozen award recipients are named each year, with 11 of those awards dependent on open peer nomination. These nominations are then considered by four regional nominating committees, which determine Regional Award Recipients in each category that are also put forward as finalists for the provincial award.
Our provincial award winners are then determined by a member-at-large vote, with a final Awards Committee ratifying the results, and/or breaking any ties. If eligible, provincial recipients are also put forward as British Columbia's nominee for corresponding National Awards presented by the PGA of Canada.
Each of the PGA of BC's awards and most recent recipients are listed below. Click on any award heading for award criteria and to view lists of past Provincial and Regional Award Recipients.
