Vidarbha Golf Association (VGA)

 

The Vidarbha Golf Association (VGA), was established on November 25, 1997, by a group of 15 founding members who came together with the shared goal of promoting the sport of golf in and around Nagpur. 

In 2015, the Association was revitalized with the formation of a new 15 member Management Committee, led by President Govindlal Ji Aggrawal. 

Of late, the newly elected General Body in 2024 undertakes the responsibility to carry out activities in furtherance of promotion of Golf in Vidarbha and regions surrounding Vidarbha.
