The origin of The Professional Golfers' Association goes back to Victorian times and the work and dedication of three golfing pioneers: JH Taylor, James Braid and Harry Vardon. Their desire was to raise the status of those men who earned their living from playing the game.
Now, with over 8,000 Members in 80 countries across the globe, we are the world’s oldest PGA and partners of the renowned Ryder Cup.
As a distinguished members’ organisation, we educate and train PGA Professionals to degree level. Providing them with the very latest skills which they can employ across all areas of the sport, from golf club management to coaching other golfers.
All of this enables golfers to play better golf, and enjoy world-class facilities at clubs across the UK.
