Benefits of IGA Membership Booklet

| 5 he IGA is a voluntary organziation of golf clubs and courses, operating for the service of those member clubs and the golfers who are members at those clubs. The IGA, through its programs and services, strives to preserve the integrity of the game and to make golf more enjoyable for all. Constant efforts are being made to expand services and develop programs to benefit the growth of the game. The IGA created a new office in Urbandale in 2002, (moved to Ankeny in December 2012), which is administered by an Executive Director and support staff. Support from club membership dues and individual members fees (tracked through the GHIN Handicap Index computation service at each club) enables the IGA to provide the core programs and services for all golfers in Iowa. By joining the IGA as individual you not only obtain a USGA Handicap Index, you are signaling your support “for the good of the game” in Iowa. In November of 2013, the IGA and Iowa Women’s Golf Association Boards of Directors voted unanimously to merge into a single organization under the name Iowa Golf Association. This culminates almost 10 years of effort to work more closely together. As one, we can better serve ALL golfers in the state of Iowa.
