Corporate, retail and individual donors are invited to become a Sponsor of the Southwestern Amateur Championship held at Desert Mountain Club. The Southwestern Golf Association (SWGA) is a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization that supports the tournament and promotes amateur golf in the Southwest. It has been the funding source for the tournament, other than player entry fees and sponsorships. Historically, the Southwestern Amateur was a men’s tournament but in 2021, the SWGA added a women’s Championship.

The move to Desert Mountain Club has increased the visibility of the Championship, as well as elevating it to one of the nation’s top amateur tournaments. In 2024, the Women’s Southwestern Amateur Championship was named one of five Championships in the Women’s Elite Amateur Golf Series (WEAGS).

However, in order to reach and maintain national stature, the SWGA continues to seek sponsorships. Many players and past Champions from the Southwestern Amateur Championship have gone on to rewarding careers on the professional tours.  This is your opportunity to contribute to the next generation of golf stars.  We offer you or your company an opportunity to sponsor, within your budget, the tournament and these young players.

In return for your commitment, your organization will be recognized in various promotional materials – including on-course signage to the player and spectator programs, as well as through media exposure generated for the tournament and its players. In addition, participation will demonstrate your support of the Southwestern Amateur but could also  create new relationships within the SWGA and the local golf industry.

If you would like to learn more about these opportunities, please contact John Ranslem at 480-695-4071.  Additionally, if you’d like to help better the tournament, donations are graciously accepted.
