Making the Game Better for Over 80 Years
The mission of the Gateway PGA, which is comprised of over 335 professionals at over 200 facilities in eastern and central Missouri and southern Illinois, is to abide by the above PGA Golf Professional’s Code of Ethics and to provide its members with meaningful playing, educational and financial opportunities while promoting golf at all levels in the geographical confines of the organization.
In 1916, the ‘Central Section’ was created as one of seven PGA Section offices. The Central Section included Arkansas, Utah, Colorado, Missouri, Oklahoma, Nebraska and Kansas. From the Central Section, the closest form of the current Section was born in 1931 and known as the ‘Eastern Missouri Section.’ In 1976, the Eastern Missouri Section became the ‘Gateway PGA Section’ with its current boundaries of Eastern and Central Missouri, and Southern Illinois.

The Gateway Section announces the passing of Bob Shogren. Mr. Shogren passed away this weekend. He was a renowned rules official and a staple of the St. Louis golfing community. The Gateway PGA will relay more information as it becomes available.

PGA Jr. League Captain Don Kueper, Carlyle Lake Golf Course in Southern Illinois, was featured in PGA Magazine for his work with local PGA Jr. League teams. “It was watching his son fall in love with PGA Jr. League that set him on a path to becoming a PGA Member. He spent time observing and learning from successful Captains around him, attending PGA Jr. League workshops and completing his ADM certification through PGA.Coach.” - PGA Magazine
