CGA/SCGA Membership Benefits You Should Know About

When you become a Myrtle Beach Golf Passport holder this year, you will also have the exclusive opportunity to become a member of both the South Carolina Golf Association and the Carolinas Golf Association.

For just one payment of $20, the unique benefits from a membership with these associations is well worth the consideration.

Through your combined CGA and SCGA membership, you will receive free access to the Golf Handicap and Information Network (GHIN). This will allow you to create and update your own USGA Handicap Index. Along with a free mobile app, you’ll be able to manage your handicap from any course in the country and register for upcoming tournaments. Use of this handicap network will also ensure that you compete against golfers of equal ability.

You will also have access to an online personal profile where you can track your handicap as well as other golf statistics from your recent rounds. In addition, the portal allows you to stay up-to-date with news from the CGA.

But in order to keep all of these statistics, you need to get out on the course first! Luckily, a membership includes a tournament program of 41 amateur championship events and five different team competitions. A total of 300 affordable net and gross tournaments for players of all genders and ages are also accessible to those with memberships.

Rules of golf seminars are offered to CGA members along with free subscriptions to Carolinas Golf Magazine and Palmetto Golfer Magazine. You will also have the opportunity to travel with the CGA to the Caribbean to compete in the Island Four-Ball Getaway Tournament.
