History

The EWGA started in 1991 with 28 women who attended a new golfer clinic in West Palm Beach, FL.  These women were motivated to learn golf to add to their business resumes.  That premise still holds true today as the EWGA delivers golf education and playing opportunities designed for the schedules of busy working women.

Since 1991, the EWGA has grown to an Association with over 120 Chapters coast to coast (as well as Canada and France) with nearly 20,000 members.  These statistics indicate that the EWGA hit a chord and filled a need.

In short, we differ from other local leagues because we are a part of changing the landscape of this sport for women of today and for the generations to follow.  The EWGA is looked to by the golf industry as THE voice for women's golf.

The EWGA has partnered with golf's leading organizations; the PGA of America, the LPGA, the USGA, the PGA TOUR along with the World Golf Foundation; working together to grow the game of golf and elevate the appreciation of the value that women bring to the game as customers.
