Who Operates the AZRC?
The AZRC is a joint venture of the Arizona Golf Association and Junior Golf Association of Arizona. The AZRC was formed to ensure Arizona tournaments receive the highest quality governance under the Rules of Golf.
The Committee:

- Maintains a list of officials and their skill ratings, availability, preferred areas of work and contact information
- Facilitates assignments of officials to events sponsored by the Associations
- Acts as a conduit to officials when organizations other than the Associations wish assistance with events
- Provides a Tournament Operations Manual and example support documents for use by clubs, event managers and Rules officials
