The BMGA is proud to support four different traveling teams, including the 12-Man Team and two teams in the fully handicapped Metro Seniors League.
Always contact your team captain for the complete schedule.
12-Man Team
The 12-man team plays five matches with divisional teams either at Brookview or at opponents’ courses before the playoffs. The format of play is similar to the Ryder Cup: two players from each team play a non-handicapped 4-ball match for 3 total points: 1 point for the front nine, 1 point for the back nine, and 1 point for overall. The team with the most points wins the match.
12-man team this year is competing under Captain Richard Brynteson.

Metro Seniors League
Additionally, Brookview has two teams entered into the fully handicapped Metro Seniors League and competes with other courses in the metro. Any BMGA member with a current handicap and who is over 50 during the year of competition can participate. The rounds are on Friday mornings at area courses. For each team, Brookview sends 4 players per round (A,B,C,D).
