We’re really excited to announce that Basic Golf will partner with the Tournament Golf Association of America (TGAA) Tour. The details of the partnership include product distribution rights for Basic Golf throughout the TGAA Tour as well as Basic Golf sponsorship of TGAA Tour events. For the TGAA Tour, Basic Golf will provide their moisture wicking CoolDry™ shirts and hats for events such as the TGAA Tour’s Ryder Cup style AMD Cup Matches. In addition, Basic Golf will offer discounts to TGAA Tour members for all of their high quality products. Basic Golf’s logo will be prominently displayed on www.tgaatour.com and TGAA Tour members will be able to access their entire catalog. Additionally, members will have an opportunity to win a Basic Golf shirt at the TGAA Tour’s 2008 Saturday one day events and its Majors.
