1933 – Formation of the National Association

The first meeting of the (National) Association was held at Cuddington Golf Club, Surrey, on 21st July 1933.

Following a round of golf, members agreed to form the Golf Club Secretaries Association.

The name was changed in 1934 to The Association of Golf Club Secretaries, as most clubs were run by Honorary Secretaries at the time.

Mr. W. Bigwood of Little Aston Golf Club (Midland Region) appeared in a 1934 cartoon depiction of the early Committee.

The Association celebrated its Golden Jubilee in 1983 and 75th Anniversary in 2008, both marked by events at Cuddington Golf Club.
