Wednesday Night 9-Hole League 2024 Greeting
April 17, 2024
Greetings to returning members as well as the new members. If you are a new member and are lucky to be on a team for match play on Wednesday Night starting May 1st you are fortunate. We lost one team of four. Members Cory Gasper and Victor Erato were able to take that slot and come off the internal waitlist. We have another 5 new participants on various teams.
The schedule is out with all of the teams listed at the bottom. Please see the Wednesday Night 9 Hole League page for schedule and standings information. All teams have a new team# and maybe a different division. Make sure you check for your team# and communicate with your other team participants. Alex Heller (414) 828-6696 and Scott Boeselager sbasel336@gmail.com are club members looking for a team to join. Please consider them if you are looking for an additional member to your team.
The first tee time this season starts at 4:32 for both sides which makes it so we will be done at least one tee time earlier than previous years and be able to finish in the light at the end of the season. Every team WILL tee off at their designated time whether or not all the members are present. Those that may be late will have to hitch a ride out to the course to join their match and will start at the tee in which everyone is present to play onward. That means, if you are late and go out to the course and your group has walked off the tee prior to you catching them you will have to wait and start at the next tee. Holes not played will be won by opponent. Those of you teeing off early the first few weeks should make sure you are at the course and ready to go when it is time.
If you are interested in participating in the SKINS event each week, the fee is $5. Make sure you signup on the correct sheet and place your money in the plastic bag corresponding to your handicap range and division#. Each 9 will have their own skins and holes will not cancel out holes from the other 9. The range of handicaps for the skins will be less than 0 to 6 handicap and 7 and over for the other group. We will revert to pars if no birdies in the 7+ group and will carryover it needed.
The scorecard should be filled out as indicated in the league book. If you playing gold tees (seniors only) then you need to make sure it indicated on the scorecard and you use the correct handicap from the listing provided for your side of play. The first group off each side should take the event flags with them. The last foursome playing should pick them up as they finish. There will be three flags for each 9 holes. All handicaps will listed on a separate sheet by division showing white and gold tees. If someone is subbing and you need to find a handicap for them they are in a separate blue binder at the table that Bob Hart will be at near the bar area prior to play. All scorecards are audited by myself and any changes will be emailed to the member of the teams affected.
You must POST your score as soon as possible after your round. Your score must also be adjusted if necessary prior to posting to WSGA. The maximum you can take for any hole is double bogey plus any handicap strokes you would receive for that hole. Those of you that are new and do not have a handicap will just record your scores as they happen and a handicap will be assigned after play and your match outcome will be determined then. The maximum handicap used during a nine hole match in league play is 16. The handicap book may have you as a 17, 20 or even higher but you will have to use 16 for the match.
These are pretty much the basics for playing in the league. In addition, play by the rules, play the ball as it lies and accept your penalty strokes as they happen. Any questions as what to do in a situation, ask your partner, ask your opponent or tell your opponent what you are doing. Ask our resident rules expert, Joe Vachuska after the round for any clarification.
Any problems, give me a call (262) 521-1141 or send an email. Good Luck and see you on May 1st. – Bob Hart
Wednesday Night 9 Hole League Final Results
October 30, 2023
Well it has finally arrived. The last night of league for 2023. All I can say is that it was a cooker. It has been a real pleasure handling the Wednesday night league and I appreciate the comments from those that are interested in what is going on. I want to thank my partner, Steve Taylor, for helping me with the skins each night. Also, to Dave Strackbein for putting up with my lack of computer knowledge in getting the stuff posted to the website. Hopefully we will all see each other at the DIEHARD. Remember the top 8 teams from each division will be playing the following 2 weeks division against division so your opponents and tee times will also be sent to you as well as on the website. Remember those playing will have to pay the greens fee etc. I have asked this in a prior letter about the division playoffs, if any of you want to play in the playoffs and you are not one of the top 8 you can be a sub for those I am sure will be gone during the Labor Day week. The dark will be a problem and we may have to cut the matches short because of it but it will be determined which division is slightly better than the other. I also want you to give Jim your thoughts about the great service we have gotten this past year, especially this past week in the oven as bottled water was brought out and offered to us. No other course would have done that. I thank Rachel and anyone else that was involved in that decision. So, for the last time this season.
The winners of the flag events this past week are as follows: Accounts will be adjusted by Jim.
Hole 2 Tom Halla Hole 8 Steve Green Hole 9 Matt Meunier
Hole 12 Mark Lemke Hole 15 Dave Miller Hole 18 Peter Smith
