Is the proper terminology Green Committee or Greens Committee?     top

In almost all cases of using the word 'green' in golf terminology, the use should be singular; green fee, greenkeeper, Green Section, green committee.

 



I'm a new member of our golf course Green Committee. Where can I get information about my responsibilities in this position?     top

Although the specific function of the Green Committee varies from golf course to golf course, the general scope of responsibilities is covered in the Green Section publication, A Guide for Green Committee Members . It is a good primer for Green Committee members, and will be available for downloading on the USGA Green Section Web site.  Also, look at the articles available on the download page of the USGA Green Section Web site for additional information.  The Golf Course Superintendents Association of America is another source of written materials on this topic ( www.gcsaa.org ).
