The Oregon Junior Amateur & the OGA |
Established in 1927 by the Oregon Golf Association, the Oregon Junior
Amateur Championship is one of the oldest and most prestigious event
amateur sporting competitions in the state. . This year, more than 210
youngsters age 8 to 17 will compete for this prestigious title at the
week long event.
The Oregon Golf
Association (OGA) is a 501(c)(6) non-profit membership association.
Founded in 1924, the OGA was originally established with the sole
purpose of conducting the Oregon Amateur Championship. Since its
founding 85 years ago, the OGA has evolved to now provide a
multitude of benefits and services to approximately 50,000
individual men, women, senior, and junior members at over 270 member
golf clubs and 190 golf courses throughout the Oregon and SW
Washington.
The OGA also works
tirelessly to promote, foster, and grow the game of golf in its
region through its support of golf related charities and "good for
the game" programs. The organization is governed by a 15-person
volunteer Executive Committee and managed by a full-time staff of
nine. When a golfer joins an OGA Member Club, a portion of the dues
paid to the club is remitted to the OGA to belong to the
Association.
As a regional representative of the United States Golf Association
(USGA), the OGA is responsible for administering the USGA Handicap
System as well as rating and measuring all regulation golf courses
in accordance with the USGA Course Rating System. It also works
closely with a number of allied associations within the golf
industry for the betterment of the game.
