Welcome to WNHGA

The Women’s Nine Hole Golf Association was organized in 1973 to promote the interest of women’s amateur golf and to provide a governing body to maintain a uniformity of standards for all clubs. WNHGA provides services for 46 clubs in Northern California including the counties of Monterey, Kern, Tulare and all of California north of these counties with a membership of 3,000.

The Association further provides all member clubs with the following services:

• Computerized golf handicapping.

• Uniformity in maintaining all procedures and rules advanced by the USGA.

• An annual Tournament of Champions, Team Play competitions, Open Days and other activities for the enjoyment of all members.

• An annual tournament for junior girls between ages 8 and 17 to encourage their participation in the game of golf. Scholarship prizes are awarded to winners.

• An annual roster, which provides the membership with a directory and scheduled events.

• A newsletter and a website to provide members with up-to-date information about club activities.

• Encouragement and assistance to clubs who wish to form a women’s nine-hole golf group.
