NCGA, the Northern California Golf Association, has been inspiring golfers of all ages, abilities, and backgrounds since 1901. With a rich history spanning over a century, NCGA offers innovative programs and services aimed at ensuring that the game of golf in Northern California is vibrant, inclusive, and accessible. As one of the largest Allied Golf Associations in the nation, NCGA boasts a membership of over 185,000 individuals belonging to more than 1,300 clubs.

They administer USGA GHIN handicaps, provide training and governance for the Rules of Golf, and organize numerous association events. The association also offers exclusive golf-related benefits and opportunities to its members. What sets NCGA apart is that they own and operate two golf courses—Poppy Hills in Pebble Beach and Poppy Ridge in Livermore.
