What is the PKBGT eLeader Player Council?
The Peggy Kirk Bell Girls Golf eLeader Player Council is a collection of select PKBGT members who discuss, plan and execute ideas that benefit the tour and its members. Each year, Player Council members will advise the PKBGT Committee & Staff on decisions impacting the tour’s future.
Our goal is to provide a fun and competitive place for girls to play, so we are looking for fresh ideas from the membership to improve the PKBGT further. Be an integral part in the future of the Peggy Kirk Bell Girls’ Golf Tour and make it the best it can be!
Who Will Make Up the Player Council?
