President Welcome Letter....

 

Hi there Ladies!  With the snow on the ground outside, it’s hard to believe that golf season is just around the corner, but before you know it we’ll be out there enjoying our favorite sport!  I can hardly wait! Mark your calendars now, because our opening social/ice breaker fun scramble will be on Wednesday, April 6th and regular league play will begin the next week.  Remember that you are responsible for making your own tee times each week..   

 

This year’s league registration form is attached to this email.  Please fill it out and get it to me no later than March 31st.  If you have any golfing friends or know of anyone who would like to join our awesome league, please forward the info to them as well!  A copy of our Plays of the Days for this season is also attached. 

Good news – The Ringer Book is back!!  It cost an additional $5.00 for anyone who wants to join that competition. You can either pay your $5 the first day you play league, or new this year, you can add it to your registration dues and send it in with them.  For those of you who have no idea what I’m talking about, here’s a quick rundown on what the ringer competition is all about:  

 The Ringers competition is a fun little challenge that lasts all season.  It allows players to better their own score on each hole over the season.  At the end of the season, all of your best scores for each hole are calculated to give one 18-hole score.  The more rounds you play, the better chance you have to improve your hole by hole score and your final Ringer’s score.  Each player will be responsible for keeping track of their own ringer scores in the ringer book that will be available on the Ladies Association table.   

 Special Notes: 

 

*Just a reminder .... All members of the Sun Hills Ladies Golf Association must have an active 18-hole UGA handicap.  -NO EXCEPTIONS-   Handicaps must be established no later than May 31, 2022.  

 

*We will again be having our closest to the hole contests each week.  Please make sure that you each have a measuring tape in your bag, so you can use it to measure your distance to the hole.   

  

*A new POD (Play of the Day) schedule will be posted to the blog and put up at the course.  (I've also attached a copy to this email)  There will also be a sign put up at the check in desk, reminding you of the specific play of the day for that day.   

 

*At the closing social we voted that we would no longer have to fill out the little POD sheets each week.  Please just put your signed scorecard in the container on the Ladies table after your round and I’ll take care of the rest.   

 

* The play of the day fee is $4 per week again this year. 

 

* Just a reminder, the following rule was approved by the league last year:  Tuesday is designated as an optional day to play for the league.  We would still prefer you to play on Wednesday, if at all possible, but the new option means that if you cannot play on Wednesday of a specific week, for any reason, you can play the Tuesday before and it will still count as league play.  (You still need to pay the $4 POD fee).  However, those who play on Tuesday will not get a chance to play for closest to the hole that week.  You will need to make your own tee time and you must play with another member of the league. 

 

*Mike wanted me to let you know that Sun Hills has raised their rates across the board by $1 per nine holes. The punch passes are still by far the best deal.
