Saturday Play
If you can’t play on Tuesday, Saturday Play is a great way to still get in a course credit.
If you are interested in being on (or off) the distribution list for playing on Saturday, email Kakie Palmer at kakiepalmer@gmail.com.
In order to play "legal" so that your score counts towards Year End awards and to receive course credit, you did not participate in the previous Tuesday playday (which includes starting but then withdrawing). There will need to be two "legal" players in a division (18 or 9) to count as a KWGA official Saturday Playday. Otherwise, you can play just for fun.
Reply to Kakie’s email by midnight Thursday (this will allow Chris time to print the Golf Genius scorecards and record nonlegal players on the tee time sheet.
Please arrive at least 10 minutes prior to play or you will need to invoke the 2 stroke penalty rule for late arrivals.
