In order to create a digital profile, golfers will need to have an email address in their golfer profile. To provide an email address, please contact the UGA at 801-563-0400 or complete the form at the bottom of the page. If you already have a unique email on file and don’t share a email with a relative or spouse, you do not do anything else.
