How to create a golf team at your club

Does your course have a golf team?

Since your adult customers can't play for the PGA junior leagues, high school or college team anymore, representing your club is the next best thing. Whether you're a private club with members or a public course with daily fee groups, the Nextgengolf team at the PGA of America is here to help your club set-up a golf team at your course.

We love playing City Tour tournaments representing our company. It's great to socialize with co-workers and also meet other golfers in the Bay Area.

PGA Professionals

Sponsor a team at your course

There are many benefits to starting a golf team at your course including:

  • Revenue Opportunity - PGA Professionals have flexibility charge golfers for practices, lessons, clinics, sell merchandise or a membership fee to join their course team. There are no upfront costs for a golf professional to start a City Tour golf team. Golfers only pay Nextgengolf for each event which they participate.
  • Member Engagement - Having a golf team at the course makes it easy for a PGA Professional to engage with their members, give them a reason to come out to the course to practice, and provides an opportunity for members to network at Nextgengolf tournaments. PGA Professionals do not need to attend City Tour tournaments.
  • Mentor and Coach - Amateur golfers are used to playing alone versus on a team. Having a PGA Professional as a team coach will help you develop a deeper relationship with the members at your course creating more loyalty, spend, and golfer happiness.
