2008 PPA and APA Membership
(Last updated on June 20, 2008 )

Competitive Putt-Putt Golf is divided into two organized membership categories. The professional ranks, called the Professional Putters Association (PPA©), are a select group of professionals that are eligible to compete in the major events on the PPA National Tour and in state and local events. The amateur ranks, called the Amateur Putters Association (APA©), includes those players competing in the game at an amateur level.

There is also an organized group called the Juniors Putters Association (JPA©) which includes players ages 8 to 15. No player competing in the JPA© in 2008 can be 16 years old or older as of July 26, 2008.

This page will be updated frequently as memberships for 2008 are received. This page will also provide state tour officials a means of checking whether a player is currently a member of the PPA and at what level. If you have any information for your biographical page or for any other players (tournament results, photos, awards, etc.) please send them to me. I prefer graphics to be in JPEG format but can normally read almost any format.
