WHAT IS SAOGA ?
SAOGA is a social golf club dedicated to bringing golfers from all parts of the South Australian Oil Industry together, on a regular basis, to play golf courses all around our South Australia state, as well as some interstate matches in Victoria and Queensland.
Currently we have around sixty active members, with new membership applications coming in frequently and with our committee working hard to ensure our members have the opportunity to play golf regularly, at some of the finest public (and some private) courses South Australia has to offer.
SAOGA members who are not affiliated with another golf club are provided an official Golf Australia / Golflink affiliated handicap maintained by SAOGA, allowing them to enter competition rounds at most golf courses when played, as well as enter all monthly SAOGA competitions which offer generous prizes to the winners who are part of the SAOGA event on that day.
Generally we hold one golf event every month, except for October as this is the month before our 4-day weekend tournament in Clare. Courses played regularly include McCracken, Mount Compass, Victor Harbor, North Adelaide and Vines, amongst others. We also host a huge 4-day SAOGA golfing trip at the Clare Golf and Country Clubs in November each year, with many trophies and prizes up for grabs each day.
2016 saw the inaugural SA-Vic State of Origin Tournament as the SAOGA team welcomed the Victorian Oil Golf Association (VOGA) to South Australia to play a state vs. state Ryder Cup like event, with return matches hosted each year until 2019. Regrettably this tournament seems to have fallen by the wayside, although similar matches were held in Queensland in 2022 & 2024 – which were both won by the SA team !
This web site is designed to keep members informed on upcoming events, monthly results, a gallery of photos of previous events, an application process for new members and also allows our sponsors to be recognised for their generous support.
