All open events ›How the Amateur Players Tour works
The Amateur Players Tour is a competitive amateur golf tour for golfers of every skill level, with 49 local chapters and 715+ events nationwide. You play real tournament golf at great courses, in a division set by your handicap, so you're always competing against players at your level.
Step 1
Find your chapter
Every chapter runs its own season of amateur golf tournaments at courses near you, mostly one-day events. You can play any event in the network, at home or on the road.
Step 2
Play your first event in your division
When you join, you fill out a short handicap questionnaire and our Competition Committee places you in one of five divisions. No USGA handicap? That's fine: we use everything you can tell us about your game to ensure the right division placement.
Step 3
Earn points and chase Player of the Year
Every event earns points toward your chapter's Player of the Year race in your division, plus a national race against players from every chapter.
Step 4
Play the majors and earn your spot at the North American Championship
National Majors at top golf resorts are open to members: just sign up. The season ends at the North American Championship, where players from every chapter compete for a national title in their division.
Five divisions, set by handicap
Division 1
3.4 & below
Division 2
3.5–8.4
Division 3
8.5–13.4
Division 4
13.5–18.4
Division 5
18.5 & above
Plus two optional net games: Mid-Am Net (under 50) and Senior Net (50+).
Questions players ask
Am I good enough to play?
Yes. The Tour is built for every skill level. You compete in a division with golfers at your handicap level, so a 15-handicap competes in Division 4 against other mid-teens, not scratch golfers.
Do I need a handicap to join?
No. New members fill out the APT Handicap Questionnaire, and the Competition Committee places you in a division using your USGA handicap if you have one, other tournament scores, and your answers. After that, your own APT tournament scores build your APT Tournament Index.
How do you keep it fair? What about sandbaggers?
Fair competition is the heart of the Tour. Your APT Tournament Index is built only from your scores in APT tournaments, not casual rounds. New players who shoot well below their division are reviewed and can be disqualified from that event, exceptional rounds can move a player up, and a Competition Committee reviews divisions every week. Players move up when their game does.
I don't know anyone. Can I join on my own?
Most players do. You’re grouped with other members at every event, and that’s how most APT friendships start.
What does it cost?
Player Membership is $135 for 365 days, or $210 as a Folds of Honor Partner (which adds a $75 donation to Folds of Honor).
