Rochester women's golf leagues now scheduled!

Whoo hoo, we’ve got our 2010 women’s golf leagues scheduled!

It’s another great line-up this year, everything from a 6-week beginner’s league at to our weekend travel league!

See below for the list — and here’s what else you need to know if you’re interested in signing up for one of our leagues:

  • After the kick-off: League registration forms will be posted for download from this website no later than Monday, March 22. (Click on the Subscribe button in our left hand sidebar to join our mailing list, and you’ll receive a notice when the forms are posted.)
  • League spots are granted on a first-come, first-served basis. Sign up ASAP to help ensure you’ll have a chance at your league of choice. (And did we mention, come to our Kick-Off?)
  • EWGA members get preference for league spots! We do allow non-members to play in our leagues, however, until March 30, EWGA members will be moved “to the front of the line” for open league spots. EWGA members also receive discounts on league fees.

It was a squeaker!

Best thing about Sunday’s First Annual EWGA Thruway Challenge?

We all had a great time!

Next best thing?

We didn’t get wet :-)

The only thing that makes golf any better than that: a match-up that goes down to the wire. And yesterday’s First Annual EWGA Thuway Challenge did just that.

Rochester took 3 of the four points on the front nine, but Syracuse grabbed five on the back, sending the first annual EWGA Thruway Challenge into a tiebreaker.

Rochester took 3 of the 4 points on the front nine, but Syracuse grabbed 5 on the back -- sending the first annual EWGA Thruway Challenge into a tiebreaker.

A total of 12 points was up for grabs: four for the Front Nine “Team Best Ball” and eight for the Back Nine “Modified Match.” And when event organizer Debbie Harper finished tallying up the points, the result was a dead even 6-6.

We had to go to a tie breaker using net Back Nine totals, which put Rochester ahead by a mere eight strokes — a slim margin, but enough to merit the invisible 4-foot trophy plus the promised Bragging Rights.

Many thanks our chapter sponsor Ravenwood for their help with the event (and for noticing how well we kept pace of play!) — and a big thanks to the Syracuse ladies who came out to play. We enjoyed your company immensely and look forward to next year — to the start of a grand new tradition — and to playing with you again this fall before the snow flies!
