Junior Golf Leagues:
Click here to visit the Junior Golf Leagues home page.  Please download and read the League guidelines.  Scores, handicaps, standings, weekly event winners, and points will be available on the web site throughout the summer.  Tee times requests for the first week of play are currently being taken by email only.  If you have a group you would like to play with or a request for what time you'd like to play, please email jga@kalamazoogolf.org.  Please include your league, name and age with all requests.  All email requests must be received by Sunday, June 15th.  All email requested tee times will be assigned and posted online by Wednesday, June 18th.  Players who do not request a tee time by email will not automatically be assigned a tee time.  Phone calls for players who need tee times will be taken starting Wednesday, June 18th.  Every effort will be made to group participants into foursomes.  Expected times for JL1 are between 8:30 and 10:45.  Expected times for JL2 are between 11:00 and 1:00.  JL3 and JL4 tee times will start at 11:00. 
** There have been many requests for 8:30 tee times (JL1) and 11:00 tee times (JL2).  Please be aware that the size of the leagues will not allow everyone to start at these times.  We will sort through the requests and assign tee times on a first-requested, first-assigned basis.  Our main goal is to get the groups who want to play together into a tee time.  Remember, you will sign up for future tee times on the day you play league. **

 

The weather forecast for this week looks great!!!  Get out and play your favorite golf course!!!
