The Northern Texas Professional Golfers’ Association announced its new office building at PGA Frisco will be named the Dr. Jerry J. Ransom Northern Texas PGA Golf House, according to a news release. Slated to officially open in October, the 7,000-square-foot facility will provide 19 offices, two conference rooms, an intern workspace, a break room, showers, lockers and storage for Section and Foundation staff. The golf house is named after Greenville Mayor Jerry Ransom, a contributor for the NTPGA Foundation’s Capital Campaign that launched in February 2020.

“The Northern Texas PGA Foundation does so many wonderful things to grow the game for kids in North Texas, and with the Golf house, I look forward to helping them make a bigger impact,” Ransom said in a statement. “Helping to make the NTPGA’s dream of having their own homesite a reality is something special that I knew I wanted to be a part of.”

The golf house is located next to the Randy Smith and Dr. Bill Blair Who’s Next Pavilion, a 2,500-square-foot building designed for the NTPGA Foundation’s community outreach and growth of the game programs, according to the release. The golf house and pavilion are scheduled to open in October.

NTPGA is one of 41 sections of the PGA of America and is headquartered in Dallas. The Northern Texas PGA will join the PGA of America in relocating its offices to Frisco this fall. 214-420-7421. www.ntpga.com
