In November 2004, the La Salle Golf Club (LSGC) was first organized as an alumni club of the De La Salle Alumni Association. It was then known as the DLSAA Golf Club. Its organization was premised on the following reasons: A significant number of Lasallian alumni are interested in golf as a sport and recreation. Student golfers regularly participated in inter-scholastic and inter-collegiate tournaments needed alumni support and financial assistance. There is a strong need to develop and promote golf among the Lasallian community particularly the young. And golf offers a tremendous opportunity to promote fellowship and unity among Lasallians, and a sense of belonging in One La Salle.
Last year, the DLSAA Golf Club formally evolved into the La Salle Golf Club, Inc (LSGC). Now a duly registered non-stock, non-profit under the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), it received the SEC Certificate of Registration on 03 June 2008.
