Welcome to the official Essex PGA website
The
PGA was founded in 1901 and is the governing body of professional
golf in Great Britain and Ireland. There are seven regional headquarters
located throughout Great Britain and Ireland, all having full-time
staff available
for advice on any aspects of the game. The PGA
National Headquarters is located at The Belfry,
Sutton Coldfield.
Within
Essex the EPGA operates a tournament circuit of over 24 events a
year. This includes EPGA Professional Championships, Match-play
events and Pro-Am’s. Whilst the PGA tournaments are restricted to
members, there are many opportunities for amateur golfers to participate
in Pro-Am competitions. With
over 70 Golf Clubs in Essex the
EPGA is an integral and active part of Essex golf. We are committed
to ‘provide professional golfers and their assistants employed at
Golf Clubs in Essex with the opportunity of playing competitive
golf and to provide amateurs from Essex Golf Clubs the opportunity
to play
competitive golf with professionals and assistants of the EPGA.

professionals are entrusted to helping golfers gain more enjoyment
from the sport by passing on expertise through information and

PGA Professional is trained to give golf lessons to all standards
of golfer, personal to you, from beginner
