Sponsorship
The Executive Women's Golf Association has sponsors at the Association headquarters and Chapter level. The EWGA would not be what it is today if it were not for the strong support provided by these sponsors. Members, be sure to show your appreciation by saying thanks and patronizing the businesses when the opportunity arises.

EWGA Generates Over $85 Million in Golf-Related Spending
The Executive Women's Golf Association (EWGA) is demonstrating that female golfers and its members have an impact on the golf industry. Recently released results from the PGA of America's 2007 golf participation survey reflect that each EWGA chapter generates over $698,800 in annual golf-related spending. Considering there are currently 123 EWGA chapters, the organization represents more than $85 million to the golf industry.
The 2007 survey found that EWGA members spent on average $4,528 on golf fees, lessons, equipment, food and beverage, and golf-related travel in the past 12 months. As one of the largest chapter with 430 members, that represents almost $2M in spending by Milwaukee area members in 2008.
The impact of a chapter is reaffirmed by the survey's findings that 69% of EWGA members are avid golfers, playing 25 or more rounds per year. "We create and retain avid and core golfers as well as bring more women into the game," says Pam Swensen, CEO of the EWGA. "These annual surveys confirm the economic value our chapters contribute to their local golf economy, and why it makes sound business sense for more companies to target female golfers as an important growth market."
