The University of North Georgia has been selected as the host of the 2022 NCAA Division II Women’s Golf Championships to be held at the Chattahoochee Golf Club May 10-14, 2022, in conjunction with the Greater Gainesville Sports Alliance.
“UNG athletics teams and our student-athletes have experienced amazing success over the past several years, and we are excited to have the opportunity to host this important championship event in our community,” President Bonita Jacobs said.
The 2022 championship will mark the first time that an NCAA Division II women’s golf champion has been crowned in the Georgia.
In 1993 and 2013, the University of Georgia was the host site for the Division I women’s golf championship.
In the past five years, the University of North Georgia has hosted 12 NCAA regional championships across six different sports.
Last year, North Georgia was the only Division II school selected to host four championships (women’s basketball, men’s tennis, women’s tennis, softball) under the NCAA’s pre-determined bidding process.
Hall County and the City of Gainesville will now be home its third NCAA championship event, joining the 2018 NCAA Division II Cross Country Southeast Regional and the 2026 NCAA Rowing National Championship that was announced in October 2020.
