(January 22, 2025) – Do you enjoy golf? Do you enjoy volunteering? Then consider volunteering for the Connecticut State Golf Association!
Since the founding of the organization in 1899, CSGA volunteers, from Executive Committee members to rules officials and other volunteers, have been the backbone of the association.
Volunteer Opportunities:
- Spotters: Volunteers who assist players in locating their golf ball and who call officials when a group is in need of a ruling.
- Starters: Volunteers who are responsible for starting players on the course and providing player information at the beginning of play.
- Rules Officials: Individuals who have demonstrated a working knowledge of the Rules of Golf and who can share that special expertise in officiating at CSGA and USGA events.

A volunteer is any person who is willing to help perform any one of a host of vital functions. There are many opportunities to get involved and to help in almost any capacity.
The rewards are meeting new people, making new friends, seeing new venues, having a great feeling of contributing to the traditions of golf, and knowing that you have made an important contribution to the game we all love!
All volunteers are provided with an official CSGA golf shirt, hat, name tag, Rules of Golf book, and our Tournament handbook, which reviews assignments, procedures, and a ‘how-to’ guide in making rulings and dealing with on-course situations. Additionally, each fall all volunteers are invited to play in the annual Volunteer Golf Outing played at a variety of courses throughout the state.
