THE ZIMBABWE GOLF ASSOCIATION (ZGA) WAS FOUNDED IN 1947 AS A UNIFYING BODY FOR GOLF CLUBS ACROSS THE COUNTRY. IN A TIME WHEN THE SPORT WAS RAPIDLY GROWING IN POPULARITY AND NEEDED GOVERNANCE.
THE ZGA WAS FORMED TO BRING STRUCTURE, FAIRNESS, AND DEVELOPMENT TO AMATEUR GOLF IN ZIMBABWE.
From its early days, the Zimbabwe Golf Association worked closely with local clubs to organize official tournaments, standardize rules of play, and promote the spirit of the game. Over the decades, it has evolved into a nationally recognized authority, helping shape the landscape of golf through junior development programs, national championships, and international representation. Today, the Zimbabwe Golf Association stands as a nationally recognized authority in the sport, having made significant strides in improving both the competitive standards and the accessibility of the game across the country. The ZGA continues to promote the development of golf through educational programs, talent scouting, and ensuring that the country's golfing legacy endures for generations to come.
