With over a decade of experience in the world of disc golf, I have had the privilege of running more than 25 tournaments and organizing multiple leagues. As a founding member of the Burlington Area Disc Golf Club, I've been instrumental in fostering a vibrant community of enthusiasts. My contributions extend to course design as well; I played a key role in the conceptualization and implementation of the Regulator at Rock Creek, situated in the scenic Cedarock Park.
Professionally, I serve as the Lead Computer Tech for the Career and Technical Education Department in our local school system. My role allows me to combine my passion for technology with the opportunity to shape the future of education, equipping students with the skills they need for success.
On the personal front, I am a proud parent of 2 kids, a son and a daughter. The friendships and connections I've made through disc golf are not just fleeting encounters; they are lifelong bonds. I am honored to serve on this Board and contribute to a sport that has given me so much.

As the years have passed, my love for the sport has only deepened, evolving from mere participation to actively contributing to its growth. Whether it's assisting newcomers or designing intricate courses, the joy I derive from disc golf continues to flourish.
Professionally, I work for the Town of Chapel Hill Parks Department. It keeps me outdoors and in good shape, which is what I also enjoy about disc golf.

With over two decades of experience in the disc golf community, my journey has evolved from being a passionate player to a course designer and builder. I am currently in the final stages of installing the Chimney Hills Disc Golf Course for the city of Burlington—a project that has ignited a new passion for course design, with aspirations to contribute even more in the future.
A long-standing member of the Burlington Area Disc Golf (BADG) community since its inception, I also hold a lifetime membership at Deep Creek.
On the personal front, I am a devoted husband and father of two. When I'm not immersed in disc golf or my professional duties, you'll find me enjoying the great outdoors through camping, lighting up the sky with fireworks, or soaking in the vibes at live music events.

My name is Brandon Moore, and I’m honored to serve on our Club’s Governing Board this year.
As a Rec/Intermediate-level player from west Burlington, I’ve been throwing a disc for many years, with my first tournament experience dating back to 2017. Since then, I’ve competed in 77 sanctioned events, including tournaments and leagues, along with countless non-sanctioned events. My bag is filled with MVP, Axiom, and Streamline discs, and I’m proud to represent Yeet Street Discs out of Morrisville, NC. Over the past few years, I’ve had the privilege of running BADG’s Warm-up and Fall leagues at Springwood Players Course, which has further deepened my passion for the sport and our community.
As part of the Governing Board, I’m excited about the opportunities ahead for 2026. North Carolina is a disc golf mecca, and our Club continues to stand out for its energy, dedication, and passion. While we may not be the largest club in the state, our commitment to the sport and our thriving community is unmatched. With some of the best courses in North Carolina, we have a unique opportunity to showcase them to the broader disc golf world.
This year, my focus is on building upon our strong tournament and league foundation while introducing fresh ideas and experiences to enhance the Club’s impact. I’m dedicated to serving not only our members but also the greater Burlington community, working to ensure 2026 is a year of growth, innovation, and success. Let’s make this year one to remember!

I’ve been playing disc golf for about five years, starting during the early COVID years, and I’ve been a member of Burlington Area Disc Golf for the past three years. I enjoy helping keep our courses clean and encouraging others to fall in love with the game. You’ll most often find me playing at Cedarock Park or Springwood, though I also frequent the Durham course near my work.
As a former cross country, track, and ultimate frisbee coach, I have a strong passion for teaching and growing the sport. Disc golf has given me an incredible sense of community, and I love meeting new faces out on the course. I’m also a proud father of two, Mae and Cayde—you’ve probably seen us together during league nights or tournaments. I’m grateful for the second family disc golf has given me and honored to serve on the board and continue supporting both the sport and our community
