BOISE, Idaho — The Idaho Golf Association is excited to welcome its first intern of the 2022 season to its team.
Elle McCord, the newest USGA P.J. Boatwright, has accepted a nine-month role with the IGA as its operations intern. During her time with the IGA, McCord will have the opportunity to be involved in various departments—helping to fulfill roles and responsibilities with the Championships, Communications and Membership teams.
Currently attending Champlain College, McCord is working toward graduation this spring with an associate degree in Web Design and Development. McCord also brings understanding of her role by having had prior work experience in the golf industry as a cart and pro shop attendant at River Birch Golf Course.
“I am so honored to be a part of the IGA this year,” McCord said. “Being a USGA P.J. Boatwright intern is a great opportunity that I know will be very beneficial to my future. I feel beyond blessed to be around the game I love and enjoy it with an amazing community and staff.”
Besides being at the links, McCord enjoys spending time outdoors—doing activities like skiing, wake surfing, hunting, fishing and hiking—and with her family.
Caleb Cox, Executive Director of the IGA, stated: “We are thrilled to welcome [McCord] to the IGA family. She brings experience having played in our IGA Championships. It will be great to have her through the entirety of our tournament season. I am looking forward to seeing her personal growth and the different ways she can contribute to our team during her internship this year.”
McCord officially joined the IGA on Jan. 5, 2022.
