Midnight Green Club

ABOUT MGC

Our Story

Midnight Green Club was born from a simple idea: Black golfers in Chicago deserve a community built for them. Founded in 2024, MGC has grown from a small group of friends hitting the driving range to a thriving community of thousands spanning Chicago's south and west sides.

Our mission is to make golf accessible, social, and culturally rooted. We believe the game is better when it reflects the diversity of the city we love. Whether you're picking up a club for the first time or chasing your next personal best, MGC is your home on the course.

From Masters Watch Parties and Happy Hours to Winter Leagues and Travel League tournaments, our programming is designed to meet golfers where they are. Our four-level training system — Beginner, Explorer, Player, Competitor — ensures everyone has a path forward.

“Still moving culture, one round at a time.”

We're not just a golf club. We're a movement. Still moving culture, one round at a time.
