History
[edit]The Saskatchewan Golf Association came to its current structure on April 12, 1999 when it was officially incorporated for business through the amalgamation of the previous Saskatchewan Golf Association (SGA), an all-male organization, and the Canadian Ladies Golf Association (CLGA) Saskatchewan Branch, an all-female organization. The SGA was formed in 1913.[2] Meanwhile, the CLGA Saskatchewan Branch was officially formed in 1926.[3]
