General Questions

How do you register for membership?

Membership registration is available online. Email reminders are sent to returning members each year notifying them when sign-up has started.

At what age can we start our junior golfer in your program?

Juniors may start in Atlanta Junior Golf at age 7 (Please note that a junior golfer's age as of June 1 during the current year determines the age for the entire calendar year).

My child has played golf for 3 years and he/she knows all the Rules. Does he/she have to attend the Rules Seminar?

First and second year members must attend an Orientation Session and a Rules Seminar, respectively. Juniors who have been members for 3 years or longer must take and pass an online Rules Quiz. Please see the Rules Education Policy for more details.

What does the membership fee cover?

The membership fee includes the extensive Membership Benefits packet (which includes one large gift item, member bag tag, ball-marker, divot repair tool, United States Golf Association junior membership and Rules of Golf book, etc.), eligibility to participate in the summer tournament series and the opportunity to qualify for season ending championships, access to play in spring and fall tournaments, and the chance to experience many special events, including the Georgia Cup, Atlanta-Kauai Team Challenge, and College Day.

When will we be receiving the information about the special events?

All the information along with the entry forms can be found within this website. Entry notification for season-ending championships will not be sent, in most cases, until the week before the respective event. Invitations for the Awards Banquet are mailed separately. Typically, notification for all events arrives via email. Please be sure to review our suggestions for communicating with our office, which can be found on the policies page of this website.

Will we get into an event if we register after the deadline stated on the website?

No. All entries must be entered into the online system before the stated deadline. The system will not allow you to register for a tournament once the deadline has passed.

How do we get to the office?

Please see: Directions to the AJG Office

I missed my Orientation or Rules Seminar, now what happens? Is there a make up?

If there is another Orientation Session or Rules Seminar scheduled, you may attend one of those. If there are no other sessions or seminars scheduled, you will be ineligible to play in the summer tournament series but will be eligible for the fall tournament series. Please note that your membership fee will not be refunded. See the Rules Education Policy for more information.

My grandparents came to town and want to watch me play golf, can they use a golf cart?

Only if they are permanently disabled and have a state-issued handicap permit. Also, they must submit the appropriate paperwork to our office before the event. Please see the Spectator Cart Policy for complete information.

My mom/dad/aunt/sister/brother/cousin has a broken leg, can they get a golf cart?

No. Broken legs or recent surgeries do not warrant a permanent handicap decal. Spectator Cart requests will NOT be accepted for temporary handicap decal holders. Please refer to the Spectator Cart Policy.

I have a permanent handicap sticker, can I get a golf cart?

Please see the Spectator Cart Policy.
