"New Jersey Golf promotes, supports and ensures the quality, traditions and development of the game of golf for everyone throughout the State of New Jersey."

New Jersey Golf is a non-profit organization of public and private clubs and courses dedicated to the service of golf in New Jersey. Founded in 1900, our mission is to promote and preserve the traditions of the game of golf in the State of New Jersey. Over a century has passed and this fundamental principal continues to guide NJ Golf.

Today, more than 250 member clubs, courses, and organizations represent nearly 70,000 members of NJ Golf. Most importantly, due to the variety and quality of services provided to our member clubs, courses, and golfers, the Association continues to grow.

In accordance with the mission statement, New Jersey Golf is dedicated to serving golf in New Jersey. We are proud of our diverse tournament schedule, which includes over 20 State Championships for golfers of varying backgrounds and skill levels. NJ Golf also provides handicapping service through the USGA’s Golf Handicap and Information Network (GHIN). In addition, we are proud of our Caddie Scholarship Foundation, which has provided over $9 million in college tuition grants to over 2,600 deserving caddie scholars from our member clubs, since its inception in 1947. In 2011, 194 students received educational funding assistance from the NJSGA. Our Youth Foundation also supports the growth of golf in New Jersey; our affiliation with The First Tee is aimed at making the game accessible to future generations of New Jersey golfers.
