Join Us

We are always looking for and accepting new players! We aim to create a competitive league that is also open to members newer to golf. Members are not beginners to the game, but may be beginners to league play. We promote a fun atmosphere to learn and improve.

If you are interested in joining, please fill out the Contact form here.

About You

  • You have a firm handle on the game. You either have a current handicap (GHIN) or are planning to start one. You do not need a handicap to join your first year of the league, but you will need to establish one to stay active in subsequent years.

  • You know and follow the rules.

  • You understand and practice pace of play.

  • You know and follow proper game etiquette.

  • You are looking to work on your game and enjoy connecting with other golfers.

  • You bring a fun and positive energy to the group.

  • You are willing to volunteer to help plan and organize different events and activities throughout the season. A league is only as successful as its members make it.

Which day is best for you to play?

We work with the pro shop to reserve preferred tee times for BWGA league members four times throughout the week. Each group has different expectations around play. Your handicap should dictate with which group you decide to play.

We play Tuesday mornings, Wednesday evenings, and weekend mornings.

  • Advanced beginners - Wednesday evenings

    • We are not a beginners’ league, but we believe that golf should be accessible and welcoming.

    • You do not need a handicap to play on Wednesdays, but you should be working toward one.

    • Wednesday evening is a 9-hole format. You need to be able to keep pace of play, play by the rules, and understand basic golf etiquette. Newer golfers should be comfortable asking for feedback on rules and pace, and open to receiving hints on league play.

  • Established golfers - Wednesday evenings, Tuesday mornings, and weekend mornings

    • Wednesdays are open to the entire league and all levels are strongly encouraged to play. It is our most social group. If this is your first year, Wednesdays are a great way to meet other members and learn more about the league.

    • Tuesdays and weekend play are offered to everyone, but you should have an active handicap under 36 before signing up.

    • Tuesday mornings offer 9- and 18-hole formats.

    • Wednesday evenings offer a 9-hole format.

    • Weekends offer an 18-hole format only.

Membership Dues

Membership dues help to cover league expenses like events, tournaments registrations, clinics, and prizes.

  • Preferred tee times / driving range - dues are your entry to preferred tee times throughout the season and reserved driving range bays on alternating Friday evenings.

  • Cost per round - the cost of each round is pay-as-you-go and consistent with current course rates.  BWGA members are eligible to play at the league rate which is lower than the non-resident rate.

  • Events - League dues help to subsidize costs for all league events, gifts, and prizes. Select events throughout the season may have an additional cost.

  • Clinics - Clinics are pay-as-you-go, typically ~$40 per clinic (subject to change).

  • Ringers - Members with a handicap are eligible to participate and earn season-long prizes.

Membership dues for new league members are $75 and require a screening call with a board member before paying. Membership dues for returning members are $50. League dues are non-refundable and due before you participate in your first BWGA event or preferred tee time of the season. Additional costs for events, clinics, and other select activities are non-refundable as your spot is accounted for and must be paid out whether or not you attend. Tee times are booked through the pro shop directly and subject to course refund policies.

Tee Times

Once you’ve paid your dues and once the BWGA’s preferred tee times are available, you’ll be granted access to book BWGA’s reserved tee times through the pro shop’s platform, Fore Up.  Tee times are subject to course cancellation policies. More information is available on the “For Members” page.
