2025 Boatwright Internship Opportunities with the IGA
The Iowa Golf Association (IGA) is excited to offer three (3) P.J. Boatwright Internships in 2025 – Marketing & Communications, Handicapping & Course Rating and Championships Administration. Each internship will be for four months. Working under the direction of the IGA Executive Director and senior staff, the interns will learn about all aspects of amateur golf administration.
Individuals are more than welcome to apply for multiple internship positions – If doing so, please make sure to fill out each application (information below). If you do apply for multiple internships, the IGA may reach out to you for your preferred choice.
The IGA is an Allied Golf Association (AGA) of the USGA and is the governing body for golf in the state of Iowa. It exists as a non-profit organization that works to preserve, protect and promote the best interests and spirit of the game. As “caretakers” of the game the IGA works to preserve the rich history of golf in our state and to provide numerous services that benefit all that play the game in Iowa.
In 1991, the USGA established the P.J. Boatwright Jr. Internship Program. P.J. Boatwright (pictured above), the USGA’s third executive director, played a pivotal role in both the USGA and golf in the U.S. This program is designed to give experience to individuals who are interested in pursuing a career in golf administration, while assisting state and regional golf associations in the promotion of amateur golf, on a short-term, entry-level basis. At the IGA, all current full-time staff members (Clint Brown, Katelynn Hogenson, Karli Kerrigan, Nate McCoy and Chad Pitts) are all former Boatwright interns.
The deadline to apply is Monday, February 3rd or until position(s) are filled (whichever is later).
