and Course Raters.
You will also find a complete listing of our member clubs, our
tournaments, area playdays and team play information.
Membership/ Marketing
Upon membership approval you will also receive a flyer to post on the bulletin board at your golf
course. This informational flyer is designed to help you get new members for your club. You
will need to complete the PWGA Representative section for your own club. Remember to talk to
the Pro at your golf course and let him/her know the details about your club – who to contact,
your playday, membership dues and if you accept junior girl members. Remember to keep a
stock of membership forms available at the Pro shop at your course, so they can help you to
promote your club..
