California State Golf Association gives golfers a choice in Southern California

Organization’s brass has more than 50 years of combined experience.

COURTESY CSGAPublished: September, 2009

The California State Golf Association was founded last week, providing the first alternative association available to local golfers in over 80 years. Golfers will be able to benefit from the CSGA’s new outlook on golf services at a lower cost. The CSGA is committed to utilizing cutting-edge technology and promises to work with member courses to develop programs and increase member play.

While the organization and its approaches are fresh, the CSGA staff and executive team are not new to the golf industry. Executive Director Ray Tippet brings over 23 years of knowledge in golf administration to the CSGA. Tippet has worked closely with most of the golf courses in Southern California. As a member of the USGA Handicap Procedures Committee and the USGA Handicap Committee, Tippet also has experience with handicapping services on a national level.

Tippet states, “We understand that in today’s current economic climate many are concerned with minimizing expenses. The CSGA has implemented a business model that allows us to provide top-notch service and quality local support for our members at an affordable cost.”
 
In 2010, other golf associations will be mandated without option to switch to a different system for handicap computation services. Recognizing that many clubs have become accustomed to the handicapping system currently in place, CSGA has retained the services of Integrated Data Company, who has provided handicapping services to all clubs in Southern California for over 40 years. The IDC system allows golfers to post scores, receive index revision e-mails, view the golfer’s statistical package and see trends calculated on the web.

The CSGA also has hired Lori Atchley of IDC Help Desk in order to provide local support for clubs. Atchley is prepared to offer the same excellent service and support that Southern Californians have become accustomed to.
