Mission

• Promote and advance the true spirit of amateur golf by cultivating fellowship, harmony, friendly competition and cooperation among members of the association.
• Conduct three annual tournaments – the Trans-Mississippi Championship, a summer competition inaugurated in 1901, the Trans-Miss Senior Championship which began in 2000 and a fall Four-Ball tournament, which began in 1981. All three championships rotate annually among the nation’s finest golf courses.
• Cultivate and promote our Turf Scholarship Fund, which provides interns to our member clubs agronomy staff. These internships provide a hands on learning experience for students preparing to enter the golf course agronomy field at some of the countries best facilities with top-flight superintendents. Clubs gain the benefit of additional assistance and teaching potential new staff with funding provided by the Trans-Mississippi Turf Scholarship Fund.
