What it says it does

Anchorage Golf Legacy is a non-profit organization dedicated to promoting the game of golf. We believe that golf teaches core values, such as honesty, integrity, sportsmanship, responsibility, perseverance and respect for others. We are dedicated to grow the game, especially with the typically under served women and junior demographics, by hosting the 2022 U.S. Senior Womens Amateur Championship. Hosting the first national golf championship in Alaska will not only spotlight womens golf, but hosting it requires us to improve the golf course and onsite facilities. This requirement will drive the improvements that allow us to give juniors and other novice golfers the opportunity to learn the skills to become golf enthusiasts and to put those learned core values to use in all aspects of their lives.
