Rules of Golf Education
One of the duties of the Nebraska Golf Association, as an Allied Golf Association of the USGA, is to educate golfers on the Rules of Golf. With the Rules of Golf changes that went into effect on January 1, 2023, NebGolf has educational opportunities available to all key segments, including member clubs, high school and college golf teams, allied associations, tournament players, volunteers, as well as the general golfer.
