CAPITAL REGION GOLF ASSOCIATION
The Capital Region has a rich history of golf including terrific individual and team tournaments. Instead of establishing a slate of new tournaments, the CRGA's primary focus is to provide support to (1) existing individual stroke play tournaments that (2) are a minimum of 36 holes and (3) are open to all golfers in the Capital District's eleven counties.
The CRGA has partnered with the Tri-County Match Play Championship, the Saratoga County Amateur Championship, and Troy Invitational. These partners continue to operate independently but have joined forces with CRGA/NYSGA to provide support and increase their exposure to the golfers in the region.
THE CAPITAL REGION'S PREMIER AMATEUR CHAMPIONSHIP
In 2024, the CRGA held the 1st Annual Capital Region Amateur Championship, for men and women at McGregor Links Country Club.
The 2025 Capital Region Men's and Women's Amateur Championships will be held at Mohawk Golf Club on August 15-17.
AREA GOLF CALENDAR
The CRGA has made available an area calendar of tournaments that are open to the public and at least 36 holes (individual and two-person teams). Tournament administrators can contact CRGA (see below) to have your eligible event considered for inclusion.
