Regular Play Days
PWGA Play Days consist of organized play with assigned tee times. A point system is used to determine year-end award amounts. The Hole-in-One money and the Chip-In money will be awarded at the end of the year. PWGA Play Days are on TUESDAYS starting in March and running through November. During the off-season, there will be no organized games. The pro shop will usually assign tee times on Tuesdays during the off-season. You may go on line and register your name for a tee time. Directions are below in internet sign up.
Primarily, we use four types of play formats: 1) Peer Play: Play is with members of similar handicaps. Points are awarded within flights for Low Gross and Low Net or for an assigned game for the day. 2) ABCD: The field is divided into 4 handicap levels and a team consists of one player from each level. Points are awarded based on team performance in the game of the day. 3) AB and CD where two A and two B play together in a foursome and two C and two D play together in a foursome. Points are awarded in both groups. 4) Pick a Partner.
Players choose any other PWGA member to be a partner for a Better Ball or Twosome event.
The results of Tuesday play will be sent to all members via email on the following
Wednesday.
The maximum handicap used for play days and tournaments is forty (40) regardless of a players established handicap. To be eligible to play in PWGA, new members must bring an established accredited course handicap which can
be transferred to the Pinewild GHIN handicap system.
