Last Call for the Spring Golf League!

Posted on by

The WCGA Spring Golf League teed off this week with four foursomes, and we still have tee times available for more players. So, if you thought you missed your chance to sign up for the League, you still have time to get in on one of our popular WCGA events. But you need to sign up this week!

For the Spring League, we will be playing 6 Monday evenings, excluding Memorial Day, at Hains Point. Because we had a few issues getting the League set up with Hains and since some groups were not able to play this week, we added another Monday at the end, so the League will now run May 14, 21 and June 4, 11, 18 and 25.

You can sign up for the League with a foursome, partial foursome or individually to be grouped with others. The Golf League is a great way to get a regular round in, and as it stays lighter out longer, you can even get all nine holes in.

If you would like to play in the Spring League, please let Astrid know your preferred tee times and preferred course (red, white or blue at Hains Point) ASAP. The final deadline to sign up is Friday, May 11. Astrid’s email is handicap@wcga.org

Looking forward to seeing everyone at the course on Monday nights!

Saturday Golf Outing: May 19

Posted on by

On Saturday, May 19, we’re going to head down to Breton Bay in Leonardtown in Southern MD — a little bit of a road trip, but a great chance to try a new course and enjoy a day out of town. http://www.bretonbaygolf.com/golf.html

Our tee times start at 12:34, so you won’t have to get up too early to make the drive, which Google maps says is about 53 miles. The cost is a very reasonable $52 for 18 holes with cart.

Please RSVP to Kathy at president@wcga.org by COB on Friday. Saturday’s weather says sunny and 77, with 0% chance of rain — sounds like great day for a little drive and some golf!

Also, we can try to coordinate some carpooling if there is interest. A few of us are staying in Solomons Island for the weekend (which explains why we’re inviting WCGA to a course a little off the beaten path), but if others want to join us out in Maryland to golf for the day, there should be some opportunities to share rides to and from the DC area.

Intermediate Golf Clinics: May 21 and 23

Posted on by

WCGA has two clinics aimed at intermediate level golfers later this month focusing on swing review and short game. The May 21 and 23 clinics will be held at the Armed Forces Retirement Home golf course in NW DC and led by Matt Kayson who runs the course there.

These clinics are priced right, at $35 for both or $20 if you sign up for one; clinics are limited to 7 people each.

All of the details and a link to sign up and pay for the clinics can be found here or on the Events page: http://wcga.org/event/intermediate-clinics-with-matt-kayson-pga-pro/
