How do I become a member of NWAGA?

Please contact your representative directly to obtain a membership. If your club is a member club of NWAGA you can join as an unaffiliated member. Cost of membership is $10 for a new member.

Are there requirements to become a member of NWAGA?
Any woman, female at birth, (age 18 and over) who resides in Nebraska or belongs to a NWAGA member golf group, is eligible for membership.
What are the eligibility requirements to play in a NWAGA event?
1. Players must be a current member of NWAGA, except for Qualified Juniors.

2. Upon receipt of a Valid Entry, any Qualified Junior (defined as a member of the NJGA and with a Handicap index of 20.0 or less), may compete in NWAGA events.

3. Each Player must have an up to date Handicap Index. A Handicap Index must be issued from a "golf club" (as defined in the "USGA Handicap System Manual") which is licensed to use the USGA Handicap System. Nine-Hole handicaps will be doubled for 18-hole tournaments.

How do I establish a Handicap Index?
To obtain a Handicap Index a player must join a golf club and post adjusted gross scores. These scores are subject to peer review. After at least five scores have been posted, the club will be eligible to issue a Handicap Index to the player in accordance with the USGA Handicap System. If you live within 50 miles of our Omaha office you are eligible to become a member of an internet based club called eClub Omaha. Link here to become a member of eClub Omaha.
