THE OPPORTUNITY
If you love golf, thrive in a team environment, and want to see what it takes to make the game happen at a championship level, this is the place to do it.

TGA Championship Operations Interns are part of the team from day one — traveling across the state, working alongside experienced staff, and helping conduct some of the most respected amateur competitions in the country. You’ll get an inside look at how events are planned, built, and delivered, and gain valuable hands-on experience that goes far beyond scoring and setup.

This role offers exposure to every aspect of tournament administration: men’s and women’s championships, regional and statewide competitions, USGA qualifiers, and even national-level events hosted in Texas.

Many of our interns have gone on to full-time positions with the TGA or other golf organizations nationwide — while there’s no hiring guarantee, we see this internship as a true stepping stone for future leaders in the game.

Assist full-time championship staff in planning, preparing, and conducting tournaments and qualifiers.

Work hands-on in every area of tournament operations, including:
- Site setup, course marking, and logistics
- Starting, scoring, and live data entry

- Photography and social media coverage
- Writing post-round stories and press releases
- Updating the TGA website and leaderboard systems
- Supporting advance site visits and club coordination

WHAT YOU’LL BRING
- A college degree (completed or in progress)
- A background or strong interest in golf and tournament operations
- Excellent communication, organization, and teamwork skills
- Comfort working outdoors and on the road
- Proficiency with Microsoft Office and online tools
- Creativity and confidence in photography or social media are a plus
- A self-starter attitude and the ability to adapt quickly in fast-paced environments

WHAT YOU’LL GAIN
- $2,350 per month (non-exempt position)
