The Ladies Professional Golf Association (LPGA) is the longest-running women's sports association in the world, having celebrated its 50th anniversary in the year 2000. The organization has grown from its roots as a playing tour into a non-profit organization involved in every facet of golf. The LPGA Tour and the LPGA Teaching & Club Professional (T&CP) Division comprise the backbone of the LPGA. The LPGA maintains a strong focus on charity through its work on grassroots junior golf, donating money through its charities and a host of other initiatives. The LPGA has also become a leader in the training of instructors to teach golf to individuals with disabilities. Currently, woman working toward getting their T&CP certification learn how to teach individuals of all abilities. The LPGA has helped the Resource Center in building the Instructors Database and in devising teaching manuals that will also be posted on this site. Representatives of the LPGA also serve on the National Alliance for Accessible Golf’s leadership council.
