The Virginia Gold Cup Association (VGCA) is the organizing body responsible for promoting and sustaining steeplechase racing in Virginia, most notably through its conduct of the annual Virginia Gold Cup and the fall International Gold Cup races. Established in the early 1920s to stimulate interest in steeplechase competition within the state, the VGCA manages event logistics, marketing, and sponsorships while supporting the growth of these historic equestrian sporting traditions.
