About Us

LPGA AMATEUR GOLF ASSOCIATION (LPGA AMATEURS) 

The LPGA Amateur Golf Association (LPGA Amateurs) is a women’s golf community that provides opportunities for all women to learn to play, play better, have fun and make friends. 

The mission of the LPGA Amateurs is to provide a welcoming golf community for all women. The LPGA Amateurs transcends geographic boundaries with over 15,000 members and Chapters in over 130 cities (and growing) in the US and internationally. We bring together and connect women who share a passion for golf by hosting thousands of golf, social and networking events annually, as well as providing members with the opportunity to participate in major national tournaments and events. 

Diverse in every way, LPGA Amateurs members play golf for a variety of reasons – to learn something new, to connect with other women, for health and wellness, to compete, for business, or just plain fun. Just as our events vary, so do the skill levels of our members – from beginners embarking on their first lesson, to those returning to the game to lifelong golfers.

About Our Chapter and League

Where we play 

  • Monday Afternoon League - Flamborough Hills for 9 or 18 holes with the option to stay, eat some dinner and socialize with old and new friends.  The league runs from May to September. You can play as many or as little as you like...but we hope we'll see you a lot! Tee times start at 4:30 for 9 holes and 3:00 for 18 holes. 

  • Midweek Afternoon League - for our members who want to pick up another round for the week, we have rounds either on Wednesday or Thursday evenings, but mostly Thursdays. You now have the option to play 9 or 18 holes.   

2025 courses included: 

  • Chedoke - Beddoe 

  • King's Forest  

Please note:  As a key benefit of LPGA Amateurs is enabling women to 'connect' through a shared passion for golf, our practice is to mix up our members each week to create new and unique foursomes.  Pairings and tee sheets will be finalized by the League Manager.  Exceptions may be requested, for reasons such as:

  • members who bring a guest(s) - see Guest Policy below
  • members who are carpooling (either same or adjacent tee times)
  • new members who would like to play with a friend for the first 1 or 2 rounds
  • tournaments where you may enter as a team

We hope you enjoy the opportunity to meet and play with a wide range of women!  

Schedule

We are busy getting ready for the 2026 season. Stay tuned for more information in early 2026.

  • The day before the tee sheets are sent out, you will receive a reminder about the round, allowing you to cancel if you can't make it after all. 

  • Each Player will receive an email with the tee sheet information and their tee time confirmation.  The tee sheet will also be made available on the Golf Genius league portal.  Most golf courses will also send a confirmation of tee times.
