PGA of Australia Female Trainee Professionals

Any female accepted by the PGA of Australia as a trainee professional whose WGA handicap at the time of turning professional, meets the ALPG criteria in force at the time, may apply for membership.

PGA of Australia female trainee professionals in possession of a letter of recommendation from the PGA Academy may be admitted as probationary members of the ALPG. Those who are so admitted will remain probationary members of the ALPG until such time as they have been granted full membership of the PGA of Australia, or the PGA withdraws its letter of recommendation. On being granted full membership of the PGA of Australia they may apply to be transferred from probationary to full membership of the ALPG.
