Nebraska Golf Association

The Nebraska Golf Association was formally established in 1966 as the Nebraska Amateur Golf Association, with roots tracing to the first Nebraska Amateur championship in 1905. It serves as the state's authority on handicapping, course rating, the Rules of Golf, and Amateur Status, with about 23,000 individual members and more than 150 member clubs. The association runs 11 state championships, qualifies golfers for 8 USGA championships, and operates junior programs including the FORE! program, running since 2012, and the Nebraska Junior Golf Tour.
