Men’s Golf Association
The Highlands MGA (Men’s Golf Association) was founded by a handful of members over 20 years ago with the expressed intent of forming a lasting organization dedicated to promoting the game of golf here at The Highlands as well as the RVA region. The organization has evolved over the last decade and has grown to over 100 members, with handicaps that range from the single digit to over 30. The Highlands MGA is open to golfers of all abilities. Our events and functions are designed to make all Golf Club at The Highlands’ members feel welcome. When you sign up in the Golf Shop for MGA play, you never know who you will be playing with. As a new member, it is the ideal way to get to know the entire membership.
The MGA organizes a number of golfing events throughout the year. These can range from simple weekend stroke play matches to two & four man team events with a variety of different formats. These weekend events typically involve up to 40 players. We also organize a few marquee events during the year.
To learn more about the MGA, you can visit our website or reach out to any of our officers.
