Innova Partners with Ledgestone for the 2026 Pro World Championships
Ledgestone Disc Golf is pleased to announce that Innova Disc Golf will serve as one of the primary manufacturer sponsors of the 2026 Professional Disc Golf World Championships.
Pro Worlds is where preparation meets pressure. Every detail is magnified. Every decision is visible.
Innova will play a meaningful role on that stage.
Championship Equipment at Black Locust
Innova baskets will be installed at the Black Locust Disc Golf Course for the championship.
At the World Championship level, the basket is not background equipment — it’s the final test. Thousands of putts will meet the chains at Black Locust. Some will extend leads. Some will decide titles. Innova’s baskets have been present for decades of those moments, and will be present again in 2026.
Consistency matters. So does familiarity. The best players in the world will compete on equipment that has stood on the sport’s biggest stages many times before.
Continuing a Proven Partnership
Ledgestone and Innova partnered during the 2024 Pro Worlds in Lynchburg. That collaboration established alignment on execution, logistics, and expectations.
The 2026 championship carries a larger footprint — expanded infrastructure, multiple venues and a broader spectator experience. Building that scale requires partners who understand both the competitive and operational demands of Worlds week.
Innova understands both.
A Brand That Helped Shape the Modern Game
Founded in 1983, Innova Disc Golf has been part of competitive disc golf from its earliest professional era through today’s global stage. From world titles to grassroots growth, their presence has spanned generations of players.
World Championships represent both the present and the history of the sport. Few brands have contributed to that history as directly as Innova.
A Central Presence at Toboggan
Innova will maintain a substantial retail presence throughout the week, offering fans access to championship merchandise and exclusive releases.
The main dining venue at the Toboggan Course will be named the Innova Dining Center — a central gathering point during the event. Throughout the week, that space will host players between rounds, volunteers during shifts, media coverage, and thousands of spectators moving through the championship grounds.
It will be one of the busiest locations on site. Innova’s name will be part of that experience.
From Innova
“We are excited to join forces with Ledgestone Disc Golf to make the 2026 World Championships the best experience it can be for the fans, volunteers, athletes, staff, vendors, media and everyone else involved. The Ledgestone team has prepared an event that every disc golf fan will be thrilled to be a part of. It takes a village and we are happy to work with Ledgestone and Pro Worlds to do our part.”
— Harold Duvall, Innova Co-founder & Original PDGA World Champion

— Nate Heinold, 2026 Pro Worlds Tournament Director
The 2026 Professional Disc Golf World Championships are designed to raise the competitive and operational standard for the sport. That requires experienced partners who understand what the moment demands.
Innova will be part of that moment — from the first drive at Black Locust to the final putt that crowns a world champion.
