NYS Championships 

Each year, the NYSGA conducts sanctioned state amateur golf championships around the state to declare the top amateur golfers in each age, gender, or category within New York.

In 1923, the Association conducted its first championship, the New York State Men's Amateur Championship. Ninety-six years later, the NYSGA's championship schedule has grown to 17 state amateur championships for all ages and genders.

To find out information on eligibility, qualifying or how to register for an NYSGA championship, visit our policies and procedures page, along with each individual championship's event page.

You can find our complete schedule by clicking here. 


NYSGA Amateur Series

This annual series consists of individual handicapped stroke play tournaments (gross and net) administered at top private and public member clubs throughout upstate New York.

These one-day events are a great opportunity to compete against peers at a similar skill level, gain exclusive access to premier private clubs and facilities, play in a competitive format (in both net and gross) under the USGA Rules of Golf, and most importantly, develop relationships with fellow golfers from around New York.
