About APT LAS VEGAS
By the players, for the players.
The Amateur Players Tour (APT) is a flighted, competitive amateur golf tour for golfers of all ages and skill levels. Consisted of over 40 chapters across the United States and one in Canada, players have the opportunity to compete at the local, regional, and national level. Our members love the game of golf, enjoy participating in various competitive golf tournament formats, love to travel and play at new golf courses and golf resorts, and desire building lasting relationships through fellowship on and off the golf course with other golf fanatics who can’t get enough of the game, its history, its architecture and its spirit.
We are “By The Players, For The Players.” But what does that mean? Our founders each have a foundation in competitive golf, each playing in local events, state ams, state opens, USGA events, and even some mini-tour experience? What’s the difference? At premiere events, the player experience is unmatched. Our mission is simple - to bring the most elite golf tournament experience to the everyday golfer. But how do we do that? Whether it be a professional registration process, simple and effective communication, a tour-like first tee experience, professional pace of play monitoring, or professional scoring, our goal is to make sure you have the best experience possible.
We ourselves are addicted to the game that in many ways shaped our lives. We’re students of its history, competition, and the life experiences that only the game of golf can provide. We want to provide some of those experiences through golf that have shaped and molded us - whether it be competition, travel, or building relationships with lifelong friends along this great game. Whether you’re a plus handicap or a 25 handicap, there’s a place for you on the APT where you can compete and become part of the fastest growing golf community on the continent.
The Local Chapters are the heart and soul of our tour. Each chapter runs a schedule of between 10-25 events and players compete on the local level in a Player of the Year race in every division. Local chapters run events frequently, most being one-day events on the weekends, where members will compete on some of the top public and private country clubs available in their area. Winners earn trophies in each division, and top finishers receive prize payouts at every tournament in VISA Gift Cards. All of our prizes are paid out in accordance with the USGA Rules of Amateur Status. Our focus is always on the player experience with a heavy emphasis on fun and friendly competition.
