UGA Tour | About

Who or what is the UGA?

The Start

All of us golfers look on with envy when we watch professionals on tour. Crowds, great caddies and live leader boards – it’s the dream! Unfortunately for most of us, we just aren’t professional golfers. Enter the Unprofessional Golf Association. A company with an eye on giving all of us non-professionals a chance to experience the atmosphere of tour event with our friends and rivals.

The Plan

At the start of 2020, the founders of the UGA, Mike Freer and Kyle Karsten planned a tour with the friends that proved to be the birth of the UGA. Wanting to be able to keep live track of the progress of the players in other groups and opposing teams was the prime concern.

Reality

That gave us an idea. It turns out no-one wants to watch our brand of golf, leader boards turn out to be pretty expensive, the staff bag was too much for grandma’s shoulder and yelling your current score across fairways is frowned upon. So we decided to go with an app instead.

Today

That has since grown into what is now a full fledged scoring, stat recording and league management app that allows everyone in your golfing group to be involved in the “tour” atmosphere. Not all golfers are the same, that’s where net scoring comes in. Regardless of whether you’re going driver-wedge or driver-provisional-3 wood-5 iron-a punch out the trees-7 iron-wedge-wedge, the UGA tour app keeps you in the action and living the dream.

Our Mission

The UGA & The UGA Tour App strives to offer golfers of all skill levels the opportunity to participate in structured leagues & events of their own choosing or design as well to help improve each members game with up-to-date and relevant feedback on their rounds and progress.

As a company, The UGA is committed to growing the game of golf at a social level and we operate by the motto “everyone’s on tour” in order to keep creating a product and environment that allows golfers to feel included in the game of golf by constantly finding new ways to bring that tour feeling to everyone’s fingertips regardless of ability, location or circumstance.

The UGA Tour App provides the platform for all of this to happen and is the central hub of the company. The ultimate goal of the app is to build a global community of social (or rather unprofessional) golfers who use it as a way to connect with each other, compete and share the game of golf.
