Louisiana Golf Association to conduct
Rules of Golf seminars
November 19th, 2018 - LAFAYETTE – The
Louisiana Golf Association (LGA) will offer a
series of educational seminars on the modernized
Rules of Golf in February and March 2019.
These seminars are open to the public and will
focus on the major changes to the Rules of Golf
taking effect on January 1, 2019. Instruction
will be provided by LGA staff, with the goal
of making the Rules accessible to anyone who
wishes to learn more about them or sharpen
their existing knowledge. With so many changes
coming into effect in 2019, these seminars will
be beneficial to attendees as we transition to
the new Rules. We encourage golfers of all skill
levels to attend. The LGA has scheduled seven
workshops across the state of Louisiana in order
to provide a convenient location for you, and we
would love for you to join us!
