EWGA Boston News: Get in the Swing this Spring!

Competitive Golf- you asked for it, and we delivered. Look for the inaugural New England Cup in June, a new season highlight, where we get to compete against other New England chapters. We're also planning match play, a Champions Cup, and of course, one of our marquee events, the Chapter Championship. This year, we've moved the venue to Highfields Golf Club in Grafton for two reasons (1) to change it up a bit and (2) to reduce the cost of play for our members. Remember, you don't have to have a low handicap to participate in most of these events. Some are flighted and designed for women golfers at all levels.

We're Giving Back to You- thanks to our fantastic membership growth, we are able to subsidize some events this year. Look for a Blackstone event in May with significantly discounted greens fees. Once again, we'll play our end of season event at Pinehills, with lunch for far below the cost you would pay to play 18 holes. And, those events are just the beginning! Look for details coming soon on the web.

New Events - this year look for some great new venues. With over 30 events scheduled, we'll be playing Ipswich Country Club in July, the International in September, and the newly opened Shining Rock in August. In fact, we have events scheduled at seven out of the top ten courses in Massachusetts as rated in the March 12th Golf Week Magazine!

New Leagues - your favorites will return, but we've added a Tuesday night league at Pembroke Country Club, and don't forget our growing Sunday league at Putterham.

Gear up for Golf Day - join us on May 16th as we hit the links at Pine Oaks. We have a special day of activities planned for us by our marquee sponsor, Joe and Leigh's. Pine Oaks was named by the Boston Globe as one of the top five public 9-hole courses, and Joe and Leigh's has been tagged as a top 100 golf shop in the nation. That combination makes for an exciting event where you can get your game, technique and equipment all geared up for a great season.
