Who We Are » Affiliate Club Benefits
An Affiliate Club is a golf course that wishes to maintain a USGA Course and Slope Rating for play by women, but does not provide its facilities for a regular AWGA club.
For a fee of $100 per year, the golf course receives:
- Listing in AWGA Directory of Member Clubs
- Course rating services - 18-hole and 9-hole USGA course slope and ratings calculated by rating teams certified by the USGA, including accurate course measurement using state of the art lasering equipment and brass measurement markers for clubs that wish to install them.
- Analysis of scorecards to determine proper hole-by-hole handicap stroke allocations.
- USGA publications at AWGA cost, plus postage. See inside cover of the AWGA Directory for a list of available publications.
- Monthly AWGA newsletters.
