North Carolina has a rich golf heritage and growing golf industry. The state offers golfers greater access to golf courses and resorts than any competitive states, with North Carolina's diverse geography and ideal climate making it an outstanding four-season destination.

The North Carolina Golf Marketing Alliance (NCGMA) is a non-profit corporation created to undertake cooperative marketing to both domestic and international markets of North Carolina as a golf destination. The group's primary objective is to increase utilization of the state's golf courses, resorts, convention centers and lodging facilities. Currently, NCGMA members include golf course operators, resorts, visitor bureaus, golf course associations, and others involved in sports and economic development throughout North Carolina.

Operating as a strategic alliance, NCGMA utilizes a combination of private and public funds to target golfers in specific geographic markets and promote travel into and around North Carolina. NCGMA works cooperatively with the North Carolina Division of Tourism, Film & Sports Development to create and implement its programs.
