After long seven years, Indian team will hold for the National Golf Squad in gentlemen, ladies and junior boys and girls categories. The full- fledge Indian Golf National Squad members will have the opportunities to participate across all major international amateur competitions including the prestigious World Team event, British Championships and Queen Sirikit Cup amoung others. 
 

India had its National Squad in 2016 owing to Indian Golf Union’s derecognition by the sports ministry and its failure to hold the Annual General Meeting which was last held in December 2022 is now headed by Mr. Brijinder Singh.
