CSGA Individual Member Benefits

Join the CSGA through a member club or online and enjoy the benefits of a USGA Handicap Index™. In addition to your USGA Handicap Index™, you will receive the CSGA eRevision Newsletter twice per month with your latest Handicap Index, recent scores, news related to Connecticut golf, and special offers for CSGA members.

The CSGA is the only authorized golf association licensed by the USGA® to utilize the USGA Handicap System™ through their member clubs in Connecticut. The CSGA uses GHIN as its handicap computation service which is the most widely accepted in the world and is offered to clubs and golfers exclusively through State or Regional Golf Associations. Your GHIN handicap gives you access to eGolfer with myGame allowing you to post scores, view your handicap index and score histories, as well as track statistics related to your game. Download the popular CSGA Mobile App to post scores, use the interactive course handicap calculator, perform a Handicap index lookup, view your most recent scores or enter tournaments from your smartphone.
