About The Magazine
NCGA Golf, the official publication of the Northern California Golf Association, is the largest regional golf magazine in the United States. The magazine is mailed out to the more than 180,000 members of the NCGA, along with each of the more than 400 member golf clubs. Its name was changed from NCGA News starting with the January 1998 Bluebook Edition.
NCGA Golf is published four times a year (in January, April, July and October) and regularly features stories on golf courses and tournaments, along with its regular features on instruction, the rules of golf and other golf-related items. The Bluebook, which comes out in January, includes listings for member clubs, public and private courses (including detailed maps) throughout Northern California. Also provided is tournament information and entry applications to major NCGA events.
If you are not an NCGA member and are interested in purchasing a Bluebook, please send a check for $18 (along with a return address) to the address below and one will be mailed to you. NCGA members can purchase a replacement Bluebook for $5.
