Your Game, Your CGA Membership

Your relationship with golf changes. Your connection to the game can grow with it. Whether you’re new to the CGA, have been with us for years, or are coming back after some time away, membership gives you a Handicap Index® and a connection to more of the golf you love.

CGA membership is available through traditional clubs and virtual clubs.

Join a Green Grass Facility

CGA Green-Grass Clubs are located at a specific golf course. This membership is for golfers who want to join an organized club and play most of their rounds at a home facility.

CGA Membership is provided for all golfers on a club’s handicap roster.  If you are a member at a traditional club, check with your club on your status before joining the CGA directly.

Join or Renew a Carolinas eClub

For golfers who are not a member of a traditional club, we offer membership in a virtual club in the form of a Carolinas eClub.  Membership in a Carolinas eClub provides you with the same CGA benefits as being a member of a traditional club.  Junior golfers ages 18 and under can take advantage of a discounted club membership through Youth On Course here.

Getting started is easy. Choose the eClub region where you live, complete your registration, and you’re in. We’ll take care of the rest so you can start posting scores, tracking your game, and enjoying everything your CGA membership offers.

If you are renewing, select "yes" when asked if you already have a handicap account, and then key in your existing GHIN number and the email address associated with your account. If you don’t know your GHIN number, email us at gasc@carolinasgolf.org or use the chat feature on our website.
