Glenway
EWGA League 2008
Welcome to the first Summer
League of EWGA golf at Glenway. Our
league will play on Wednesday nights for 12 weeks (May 21 through August 6).
Tee times begin at 4:30 p.m. and end at 4:45 p.m.. Attached to this flyer is the tee time schedule for season. The schedule is also available on the EWGA
Madison website.
Stroke Rule
In order to keep pace of
play, please limit yourself to 10 strokes per hole. After 10 strokes, you should pick up your ball and allow the rest
of your foursome to complete the hole.
Record a 10 on your scorecard and strive to minimize the number of holes
in which you are forced to pick up.
Scorecards and Handicap
Glenway doesn't have a computer that you can use to enter your handicap. You are responsible for entering your own scores at another course you are playing at or the Wisconsin State Golf Association website www.wsga.org
You will need to know and enter the following information:
1. Your name
2. The date
3. The golf course you played (when playing at Glenway, choose away course. Glenway isn't registared on the WSGA website as a home course.)
4. The set of tees you played from
5. If you played nine holes, did you play the front or back?
6. The USGA Course Rating and USGA Slope rating of the course played (this will be on the scorecard and based on the set of tees you played).
7. Your adjusted gross score (see adjusting scores below)
At the end of the evening
please give me your scorecards. If I am
not playing a particular evening, there will be a designated person to collect
the cards.
Rain/Bad Weather
Always assume that you are
playing. If the weather is bad all day,
I will try to get a decision on play from Glenway as soon as possible. In general, unless there is a lot of
standing water or lightening, we will play.
If the course closes, we will be offered a rain check or
reschedule. However, if it is raining,
and you decide not to play, you are not offered a rain check.
Play Your Designated Tee Time
The tee time schedule has
been structured to evenly split the early and late tee times and to give
everyone the opportunity to play with each other. If you arrive late for your tee time, do not assume that you can
golf with a later group. It is likely
that you will have to skip a few holes and golf with your designated group.
Substitutes
It is your responsibility to
obtain a substitute if you are unable to play.
To find a sub, log on to the EWGA Madison website a click on “request a
substitute”. You are given the option
to select the Wednesday Glenway Sub List.
You type in the message on the tee time and date and the system sends
the e-mail directly to the names on the Glenway sub list. If you have a sub, please let me know so
that I can have the card ready for the appropriate person. Many times the sub forgets the name of the
person they are subbing for. It makes
it easier if we know to expect them. If
you are splitting a league, but interested in a few extra nights of golf, you
may want to add you name to the sub list.
Check-in
When you arrive at Glenway,
please check in with me or the assigned teammate. We will be located near the clubhouse. You will pick up your score card and the weekly flyer which will
contain an etiquette/rule tip of the week and instructions on any special games
that will be played that week. Some
weeks there are special games that allow you to win a free gift ~ longest
drive, Bingo, etc. Always arrive early and be ready to play 10-15 minutes before your
scheduled tee time. This
courtesy ensures that everyone will play their full 9 holes before the sun
sets!
Glenway Roster
A roster of league members is
attached. If you would like to update
any of the information, please do so on the EWGA national website.
Stick Around After Golf
If possible, join your fellow
league members for a sandwich and dinner across the street at the Village
Bar, following golf. This is a great way to relax and meet some
new friends!
This is YOUR league – have
fun and please share your feedback on what you like, dislike, etc. so that we
can make improvements each year.
Feel free to contact me at
any time!
