History of the Carolinas
The Carolinas Section of the PGA was formed in 1923 and officially recognized by the PGA in 1940. Today, the Carolinas PGA has grown to be the largest of the PGA’s forty-one sections with more than 2,400 professional members and associates employed at more than 700 golf facilities. Our geographic territory embraces North and South Carolina and a small portion of southern Virginia.
The Carolinas PGA is dedicated to nurturing and improving the quality of the game for the thousands of golfers using our member facilities. PGA professionals are responsible for conducting various golf-related functions, including golf shop merchandising, golf instruction, tournament operations, Junior golf programs, golf club repair, administering the Rules, public relations, and much more.
