This is an ASGA Multi-Chapter Invitational at PGA National Resort
 
As with this event in January, 2025,
 
this event is a 4 night / 5-day event
 
and includes 3 rounds of golf.
(see details on the GOLF link to the left)
 
We WILL play the Champions Course as part of our 3 rounds.

Arrive Friday, January 2, 2026 - Depart Tuesday, January 6, 2026

(Add'l. nights available at reduced rate up to 3 days before and 3 days after our event is over.)

OPEN TO ALL CURRENT ASGA MEMBERS

Yes, you must be a member of ASGA at the time of the event to attend this multi-chapter event. To join or renew your membership in ASGA, go to www.SinglesGolf.com/join.

We were at PGA National Resort these same dates in January, 2025 and many indicated they'd like to return. The Resort has given us favorable rates because 1) they like us and 2) we arrive on January 2nd after every visitor and vacationer heads home after the holidays. PGA National is a bucket list resort; it's been the site of the Honda Classic for 22 years and currently the venue for the The 2026 Cognizant Classic which is scheduled to take place from Wednesday, February 25, to Sunday, March 1, 2026. The tournament will be held at the Champion Course at PGA National Resort in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida

So, explore the various tabs on the left side of this website and sign-up soon. Save additional when you room with a friend, otherwise we cannot guarantee ASGA will provide a roommate for you . . . but we will try!

DEPOSIT OKAY BUT FULL PAYMENT IS NEEDED RIGHT AWAY IF POSSIBLE IN ORDER TO SECURE YOUR ROOM!

If you are planning to go, we need a deposit or full payment for ASGA to contract the correct number of rooms, a/k/a room block.

Your payment will allow us to sign a contract with the Resort securing a specific block of rooms. When we fill-up the block we will have reserved, we will seek to add more rooms if necessary but there is no guarantee rooms will be available as the public will be reserving rooms during this time period as well. So please don't assume you can wait until the last minute to register.

GOT A ROOMMATE? And if you know you'll have a roommate, please get both of your registrations submitted at the same time, otherwise, you might be charged the room-by-yourself rate.

OPTIONAL DAY-OF-ARRIVAL GOLF ON THE STAPLES, A 9-HOLE PAR 3 COURSE - A great warm-up round. Bring just a few clubs as holes are from 60-130 yards away. Looks like a beautiful little par 3 - click here for a snippet. Cost is an optional $44. Tee times beginning at 2:00pm.

To view the Champion Course website, go here.

* forecaddie included on Champion round & requires a minimum $30 cash gratuity paid in cash by each player.

 


Competition and Prizes.  For our primary package rounds, we will offer a $100.00 cash prize to each of the winners (male and female) of a selected par 3 known as the "money hole." There will not be any $25 prize certificates as we have done in the past. 

Golf Club Storage.  The Resort will store your clubs and have them sitting on your cart each day. Upon arrival, you will leave your clubs at the main hotel entrance.

Make sure your name is on your golf bag.  Also, make sure you have your name on each of your clubs. ASGA provides a set of 14 labels as part of your ASGA membership fee. If you don't have your name and contact phone on each of your clubs, go here to order a set. Allow 7-10 days for processing. When you leave the hotel to return home, be sure to remember to pack your clubs!  

ASGA or the staff at any of our courses reserve the right to modify the time of play schedule based on the number of players as we get closer to the event. Simply put, if we don't have enough for a shotgun, we do straight tee times. For our package rounds at this event, we are scheduled to have shotgun starts all days on our package courses.

 

Food

 

If you have a special dietary need, please indicate that on your registration form.*

In our 4-night/5-day packages, the following will be included**:

  • Four (4) dinners. The first three dinners will be at the Resort, the last one will be at Seasons 52, off-property.

Lunches and breakfasts are on your own.

* Food Allergies and/or Special Dietary Needs:  If you have a special dietary need, e.g., gluten free, meat free, fat-free, pork-free or a nothing burger, etc., you must notify at the time you register. Please DO NOT ask right prior to the food function as there will be no time for the kitchen to take care of your needs. There is a place on the registration form for you to indicate your dietary need. Once we are at a particular venue, it is UP TO YOU to notify the Resort staff or ASGA event leader who you are and that you are a person with the special dietary need.

For some ASGA-hosted events, meals may be served buffet-style and could include certain menu items (e.g., pork products such as bacon or sausage) that may not align with specific religious beliefs. Please be aware that these items may be on display

Getting To PGA National Resort

 

If you're driving to this venue, you'll likely have some sort of GPS with you.  So here's their information to put into your system:

PGA NATIONAL RESORT

400 Avenue of the Champions, Palm Beach Gardens, Florida

To visit the resort's website (PGAResort.com), click here

Phone 800-863-2819

CHECK-IN TIME IS 4:00 PM     CHECK-OUT TIME IS 12:00 PM

 

If you're flying, you'll want to fly into PALM BEACH INTERNATIONAL (PBI Airport). No shuttle service to the hotel is available, however, we suggest Uber, Lyft or a taxi to get you to the hotel.  It's about a $25 charge each way.

DO YOU RENT A CAR?  That is up to you, however, think about this: you'll likely fly into Palm Beach International Airport (PBI Airport) which is about 77 miles north of Miami. From there, you could take an Uber, Lyft or even a taxi and get to the Resort. (Share that cost if you are with another ASGA member.) We were told it's about a $25 Uber ride from the PBI airport. So we don't suggest renting a car. The Resort will provide transportation to all your on-property venues. We'll have dinner on property three out of four nights and group transportation is provided for the night we have dinner off property. The golf courses at PGA National are just out the back door of the hotel. Yes, they really are!   

PARKING: If you drive to the Resort, there is free self-parking.
