Our Mission
Promoting the Game of Golf Since 1923
The objective of the TSPGA is to establish the section as a viable, valuable and visible organization within the golfing community in Western PA, Western Maryland, and the state of West Virginia. We serve the PGA members and associates through our educational programs, tournaments, community events, and numerous playing opportunities.
Since 1921, we have worked hard to maintain and protect the Tri-State Section PGA brand, engage and support our Tri-State members, develop well-rounded golfers, and promote the game of golf.
