As we enter mid-April, we have seen many things have changed over the past 6 weeks right before our eyes! First we hope you and your family are safe during this difficult time. A shout out to your chapter leaders. GCSAA and your chapter have been working in concert to ensure you have resources and information at your fingertips. Chapter leaders are also there to provide the information needed to perform your job, while adhering to CDC and health guidelines.

As golf courses are living habitats, they require some form of maintenance to continue to act as safe and environmentally friendly assets to the communities they serve. Superintendents have enacted plans to keep employees safe while adhering to CDC guidelines and state and local executive orders to help prevent the spread of COVID-19. GCSAA has resources available to assist superintendents as crew safety remains the number one priority.

Whether your facility is open for play, or solely maintaining the property, minimum maintenance is, and will continue to be the focus. The GCSAA and USGA have information available for minimum maintenance practices. As always, be sure to work with your facility management and legal teams, as well as local law enforcement/authorities as you continue to maintain the property. Simply visit www.gcsaa.org for all the information needed. We update information on our Covid-19 links regularly.



As state and federal executive orders are updated and new policy is introduced, GCSAA will monitor the situation and work with allied associations on behalf of the golf industry.

Please be sure to reach out with any questions as you navigate this unprecedented time and all the best!
