Has Your Club Signed Up Yet?

Mass Golf's new Club Partner Program is designed to ensure that each Member Club can take full advantage of Mass Golf services, programs and resources, as well as making Mass Golf aware of challenges that clubs are facing so we can proactively support our Member Clubs.

In 2025, Mass Golf will provide grants totaling $50,000 to our Member Clubs for USGA Green Section programs: a USGA Course Consulting Service Visit or Technology "Start Up" Package with Deacon, GS3 and/ or Moisture Meter.
