Executive Women's Golf Association Inc

The Executive Women's Golf Association Inc (EWGA) was a prominent nonprofit organization dedicated to promoting golf among women in the United States. Founded in 1991 by Nancy Oliver, the EWGA aimed to create a supportive environment where women could learn, play, and enjoy golf while fostering business networking and personal growth opportunities[1][2].

History

The EWGA was established as a national membership association with chapters across the U.S., Canada, Bermuda, South Africa, Ireland, and Italy. At its peak, it had over 120 chapters, with 114 in the U.S. alone[1]. The organization was known for its volunteer-driven leadership, from local chapters to its national board.

Activities

EWGA chapters hosted a variety of events, including major tournaments, weekly after-work golf leagues, business networking sessions, and educational programs. These activities catered to women of all skill levels, from beginners to experienced golfers. Chapters also conducted charity fundraising events and seminars on golf rules and etiquette[1][2].

Competitions

The EWGA held an annual national championship, which featured stroke play competition across five flights: Championship, First, Second, Third, and Fourth. Winners were awarded for both gross and net scores[1]. Additionally, the EWGA Cup Match Series was introduced in 2012, where members competed in match play at regional and national levels[1].

Rebranding

As of 2018, the EWGA was acquired by the LPGA and rebranded as LPGA Women Who Play, later renamed to LPGA Amateur Golf Association. This transition aimed to expand playing opportunities for women golfers and integrate EWGA's activities under the LPGA umbrella[5].

Mission

The core mission of the EWGA was to utilize golf as a platform for business networking, leadership development, and personal growth among women. It provided opportunities for women to learn and enjoy golf while connecting with other professionals and enthusiasts[3][4].
