Ballston Spa Country Club Names New Head Golf Pro

BALLSTON SPA — The Ballston Spa Country Club board of directors recently announced the hire of Head Golf Professional Michael Decker, PGA.

Decker has served as the head golf professional at McGregor Links Country Club in Wilton since 2021. Decker is a former ‘Merchandiser of the Year’ and is known locally for his founding of the largest PGA Junior League in the Northeastern New York PGA section. 

“Working in concert with the PGA and a dedicated group of members who volunteered their time on our search committee, the board had the privilege of hiring Mr. Decker, who emerged from an impressive field of candidates,” said Club President Dan Loewenstein. “His proven success, strong Capital Region experience, and commitment to excellence will elevate the golfer experience and strengthen Ballston Spa Country Club as one of the area’s most welcoming and rewarding places to play.”

In addition to a new head golf professional, the Ballston Spa Country Club is coming off its 100-year anniversary in 2025. This milestone coincided with the construction of a new clubhouse, which is open to the public for dining and offers views of the golf course.
