ABOUT THE USGA P.J. BOATWRIGHT INTERNSHIP PROGRAM:
In 1991, the USGA established the P.J. Boatwright Jr. Internship Program. This program is designed to give experience to individuals who are interested in pursuing a career in golf administration, while assisting state and regional golf associations in the promotion of amateur golf, on a short-term, entry-level basis.
Each internship is different since the needs vary from association to association. An intern may help conduct tournaments, junior golf programs, membership services, and other general activities that promote the best interests of golf. Arrangements for multiple summer employment are possible as well.
The common thread, which runs through the internship, is exposure to tournament preparations, tournament administration, and post-tournament business. The nature of tournament administration will test one's patience, initiative, and decision-making abilities, as well as one's ability to endure long hours and hard work.
