Think back to when you first picked up a golf club. Maybe you were fortunate enough to play at the junior, high school or collegiate levels or perhaps you picked it up more recently following a successful career or raising a family. Regardless of when you started playing, it is likely that you were introduced to the game by someone close to you ‒ a parent, grandparent or friend.

According to the National Golf Foundation, female golfers are the largest growing segment of golfers in recent years; the number of female adults and junior on-course golfers surpassed the six million mark for the first time since 2007. Locally, there were 25,000 active women’s golfers in Arizona at the time of the Arizona Women’s Golf Association’s 2019 merger with the Arizona Golf Association. Despite the growth, in a recent survey of female golfers in Arizona, many respondents said that they felt their skill level was not good enough to play in women’s events and tournaments.

Luckily, the AGA offers several programs to meet golfers at all skill levels and encourages you to invite a friend to play and introduce them to the game the same way you were introduced.

For the newest golfers, the AGA offers Nine and Wine mentoring opportunities and Game On Golf Clinics. Both give players of all skill levels a chance to learn from seasoned golfers in an easy-going environment and hopefully, transition into playing the game comfortably on their own.

For recreational players, the AGA has multiple Social Golf options, including Scramble Days, Just 4 Fun Days, AZ eClub and AZ Under30 Club. Although prizes are handed out at the end of some events, these events re- volve around fun more than competition- using scramble or partner formats or no format at all. Active golfers have a number of travel opportunities throughout the year to golf destinations spanning the United States, Mexico and Europe.

If you are looking for a little more competition, the AGA also holds the Arizona Senior Series ‒ one-day partner events open to any member aged 50+ with a handicap index. Teams are flighted, use a four-ball stroke play format and teams accumulate points throughout the season; the top winners are invited to participate in a championship at the end of the season.

New in 2023, the AGA is starting up its One-Day Series ‒ a tournament experience for members (men and women) of all skill levels to compete at premier courses, often on weekends. Tournaments are flighted based on format, field size and playing ability; players are invited to play in single events, but those who earn the most points throughout the season will be invited to compete in a championship at the end of the season.

For our Membership looking for the most competitive experiences, the AGA offers opportunities for singles or two-teams to test their mettle against the competition. Grab a partner or challenge yourself individually by securing your entry azgolf.org.

You are strongly encouraged to step outside your comfort zone and participate in an AGA Women’s event this year! You will meet new friends, play new golf courses throughout the state and most importantly, get to play the game we all love.
