Month: August 2022

No clue where the post went. I’ll write up more but details

For the final two weeks of the regular season, the following schedule will be followed:

1. August 31 – All tee times have been moved up 10 minutes. New schedule 3:20 to 5:50 p.m.
2. September 7 – All tee times will be moved up 10 minutes. New schedule 3:20 to 5:50 p.m.

All players need to adjust their tee time up by 10 minutes. If you were scheduled to play at 4:00 p.m., you are now expected to tee off at 3:50 p.m.  Additional measures may be needed to make sure teams in playoff contention are able to complete all matches. Team Captains will be sent additional information via email.

Team Matches

This week’s Division battles resulted in the following:

1. Putt 4 Dough (13) wins their sixth in a row blasting Par then Bar (14) = 51 to 29
2. Who’s Your Caddy (6) over 9th Green at 9PM (9) = 44.5 to 35.5
3. Range Balls (12) over the Zed Heads (8) = 44 to 36

The Weekly Rant  

• August 31 and September 7 – All tee times will be moved up by 10 minutes for the final two weeks of the regular season. For example, if you were scheduled for 4:30 p.m. you will now tee off at 4:20 p.m.
  
  Per the BMGA Wednesday Night League Guide, a Player is considered late if he is not on the tee box at his scheduled tee time.  A “Late Player” is considered an “Absent Player” once any player in the following tee time has hit their tee shot.  For more information see page 4.

Future Events

1. Make-up of Week #4 – As of Aug 25, “Week #4” will be made up on Sept 7. Check with your Team Captain if you have questions.
2. WNL Playoffs – The first round of the playoffs is set for Sept 14. Conference Championships will follow on Sept 21 with the WNL Championship set for Sept 28.  Oct 5 is being held as a potential makeup date.

Reminders

1. Pace of Play is becoming even more critical now that the sun is setting earlier each week. Here are some examples of how everyone can play a little faster:
   • Be early to your tee time.
   • Do not exceed time limit to search for a lost ball. The time limit is three (3) minutes!
   • Putting out after missing a putt vs. remarking a one footer.
   • Giving your opponent that six inch putt.
   • Playing ready golf vs. strictly following the “honors” system.
2. If an issue arises on the course during WNL play that may impact the result of a match, please bring the matter to the WNL Director’s (or other BMGA Board Member) attention so we can try to resolve it right away.

Handicaps

• If you are not entering your scores (or accurate scores) you are hurting yourself, your team and the people you are playing against. This includes WNL scores and “Away” scores.  To ensure an accurate handicap, you should be entering “hole by hole” scores.  
• All players are responsible for entering a correct course handicap per USGA Rule 3.2c (1). Post your scores for WNL as they are not entered by the BMGA or Brookview. 
• The WNL Director is not responsible for checking the accuracy of the player’s handicap on the scorecards. Check the GHIN App before teeing off to get your current handicap and adjust it to the Side (Front or Back) and Tees (Member or Gold).

Scorecards  

• Scorecards should be signed by at least one player from each team.
• If someone concedes a hole, please mark an “X.”  This is especially important when both players score a 9 but the hole is conceded by the player who picks up their ball first.

Schedule for August 24, August 31 and September 7

In consultation with all Team Captains, and the BMGA Board, the following schedule will be followed:

1. August 24 – Regular 3:30 to 6:00 p.m. schedule will remain in place.
2. August 31 – All tee times will be moved up 10 minutes. New schedule 3:20 to 5:50 p.m.
3. September 7 – All tee times will be moved up 10 minutes. New schedule 3:20 to 5:50 p.m.

All players need to adjust their tee by 10 minutes. If you were scheduled to play at 4:00 p.m., you are now expected to tee off at 3:50 p.m.  Per the BMGA Wednesday Night League Guide, a Player is considered late if he is not on the tee box at his scheduled tee time.  A “Late Player” is considered an “Absent Player” once any player in the following tee time has hit their tee shot.  For more information see page 4.

Additional measures may be needed to make sure teams in playoff contention are able to complete all matches. Team Captains will be sent additional information via email.

Before going to the results, this is a friendly reminder that we need to pick up the pace during league play as we continue to lose daylight each week. Most if not all players were in by 8:20 on August 17. Thank you!

The Weekly Rant

The Weekly Rant  

Future Events

1. Make-up of Week #4 – As of August 4, “Week #4” will be made up on September 7. If you were scheduled to play on May 18, you are likely on the schedule. Check with your Team Captain if you have any questions or conflicts.
2. WNL Playoffs – The first round of the playoffs is scheduled for September 14. Conference Championships will follow on September 21 with the WNL Championship scheduled for September 28.

Reminders

1. Pace of Play is becoming even more critical now that the sun is setting earlier each week. Here are some examples of how everyone can pace of play a little faster:
   • Be early to your tee time.
   • Do not exceed time limit to search for a lost ball. The time limit is three (3) minutes!
   • Putting out after missing a putt vs. remarking a one footer.
   • Giving your opponent that six inch putt.
   • Playing ready golf vs. strictly following the “honors” system.
2. If an issue arises on the course during WNL play that may impact the result of a match, please bring the matter to the WNL Director’s (or other BMGA Board Member) attention so we can try to resolve it right away.

Handicaps

• If you are not entering your scores (or accurate scores) you are hurting yourself, your team and the people you are playing against. This includes WNL scores and “Away” scores.
• All players are responsible for entering a correct course handicap per USGA Rule 3.2c (1). Post your scores for WNL as they are not entered by the BMGA or Brookview. 
• The WNL Director is not responsible for checking the accuracy of the player’s handicap on the scorecards. Check the GHIN App before teeing off to get your current handicap and adjust it to the Side (Front or Back) and Tees (Member or Gold).

Scorecards  

• Scorecards should be signed by at least one player from each team.
• If someone concedes a hole, please mark an “X.”  This is especially important when both players score a 9 but the hole is conceded by the player who picks up their ball first.
