Frequently Asked Questions
Founded in 2012, Gathering on the Greens® was created exclusively for professional women without regard to industry/occupation. Today, the expansion of Gathering on the Greens® offers programming tailored to meet the needs of your organization and the groups of people you want to bring together for an inclusive experience.
Participants must be at least 21 years of age with a desire to learn to play golf. While Gathering on the Greens® is intended for women with little to no golf experience, people of all golfing abilities are welcome to participate.
You will not be playing for the entire 3 hours. For public sessions, the actual golf instruction time is 90 minutes (unless otherwise stated), the remaining time is allotted for other components of the Gathering on the Greens® experience. You should plan to arrive 15 minutes prior to your session start time to allow time to check-in and warm up. The timing is customized for Corporate Sessions (full day or half day experiences).
The instructors for Gathering on the Greens® sessions are certified PGA professionals. Golf coaches and top amateur golfers may participate in select Gathering on the Greens® events to assist with instruction. All instructors are enthusiastic about helping grow the game and are carefully selected to ensure participants have the best experience possible.
No. Golf is an outdoor sport and is played rain or shine. If the weather becomes too severe, the golf course superintendent may suspend play for everyone’s safety. If that happens, we’ll move inside to the clubhouse for the non-golfing part of the experience. In the event extreme weather conditions arise necessitating we cancel the session, all registrants will be notified and every attempt will be made to reschedule at a later date.

First and foremost, wear comfortable clothing. Gathering on the Greens® is an interactive experience. You will be playing golf outdoors. Consider bringing a hat/visor or sunglasses, and sunscreen. As a general rule of thumb, golf course appropriate attire includes: shirts with a collar, slacks/pants, Bermuda length shorts, and golf skirts/dresses/skorts. If you do not have golf shoes, wear shoes with a rubber sole (athletic shoe). You should not wear denim clothing, yoga attire, sweatpants, halter tops, or shoes with heels.
No. Equipment will be provided for your use during the event.
To ensure the appropriate instructor to participant ratio and equipment availability, Gathering on the Greens®participants must register in advance online (for public events) and contract with us for a customized private corporate event.
