There are three weeks left in the regular season – the last two are division play so no team has anything locked up yet. There were no changes in standings this week. Team Hack Attack had a good week with a 49 point win increasing their league leading total to 605.5 points. However, they only hold a 27.5 point lead in their division.
Nick Ward moved into the MVP lead with 71.5 total points. {corrected} The twelve players with the best ten-score WNL total qualify for the season-ending Shootout on October 7, as do the dozen highest cup point players from the weekend events.
Remember:
- If you are not scheduled to golf on any particular night, we can use you as a spotteror ranger. It can help with pace of play. To spot, just report to the pro shop and let them know and you’ll get a cart and flags for marking the ball. Common holes for spotting are #2, #3, #14, and #16. Or you can range around helping the groups that are slow catch up.

Weekly WNL Director Stats
- Legibility was very good this week with only a few problems. We may have to issue calculators and pencils with erasers. Here is a listing of the the problems that slow down score entry:
- Number cards without finish time: Front: 3, Back: 0
- Cards with folds across scores: Front: 4, Back: 1
- Cards with missing or addition errors: Front: 3, Back: 4
- Cards missing or wrong team numbers or full names: Front: 0, Back: 0
- Starting Tee times were on 32 of 32 matches. (Please enter the scheduled tee time, not your actual time to tee off.)
- Pace of play – The front had about a 10-15 minute delay due to earlier weather delays for the public. You guys did a great job pushing ahead and finished in our typical 2:30. The back fell behind pretty early but sustained 2:30 to the end.
Weekly Reminders
- 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.
- If you are in the last group (6 PM tee time) please collect the on course flags when you leave the hole and put them in the bucket on the deck at the end of your round.
- Post your score! (The league does not post for you). We highly recommend hole-by-hole posting as it does a better job of calculating your proper ESC score.
Scorecards
- Please enter both the match start time and end time in the space provided. Make sure every bank on the card is filled in.
- Scorecards should be signed by at least one player from each team.
- Please don’t fold the card where scores are entered – this really impacts legibility.
- 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.
