The CGSA is a society committed to excellence in golf course management and environmental responsibility through the continuing professional development of approximately 1000 members.

Why join? CGSA is the only National association of golf course superintendents and others working in the golf maintenance industry in Canada. CGSA advocates for the profession on regional, national and international levels. We have been busy the past several months actively working with our members and regional groups to assist golf courses and their personnel on the issues relating to the COVID-19 pandemic. We have never been more aware of how small this world really is and how working together towards a common goal is so important. CGSA knows that superintendents, assistants, equipment managers and other turf professionals are among the most resilient and ingenious members of the golf industry. You are no stranger to adversity; from irregular weather patterns, to maintaining the course with less, finding creative solutions and leading diverse teams.  We applaud and thank you for your efforts. 

As a CGSA member you will have:
  • Access to numerous resources including the opportunity to save money through the Golfmax Purchasing Program. The savings through the program can more than pay for the cost of membership;
  • Access to our new website that has additional items for you to use including a Membership Directory and the 2019 CGSA Compensation Summary Survey; 
  • Accreditation Programs and professional designations that allow members to show their dedication to their profession;
  • Quarterly GreenMaster magazine; monthly GreenMatter member newsletter and weekly On the Fringe news; delivered to your mailbox or inbox. These communication items share important and pertinent information to you as a turf professional;
  • Member rates on CGSA events and programs including The Canadian – a savings of up to $300;
  • Awards and Scholarship Programs; and
  • Complimentary* job postings in our SuperSearch service – a savings of $425. 

The cost of membership is a small investment in yourself. To join the CGSA now – please visit www.golfsupers.com and click on the JOIN/RENEW  or complete this form . We look forward to welcoming you as a member soon.
