We ask that you please arrive at least 30 mins before your designated tee off time for each event to keep us all on track! You will have to pay for your round inside the club house and then register with your ID at the first tee. This is where you will receive your custom scorecard and view your pairings.
$25 entry fee must be paid no later than 7 days in advance. This helps secure your spot and helps our admin team prepare for the event with an exact number of golfers.
