News from the SaddleBrooke Ranch Men’s Golf Association

Tom Graham

The SaddleBrooke Ranch Men’s Golf Association (SBRMGA) is off to a fast start to the new year. We are here to serve the SaddleBrooke Ranch golfing community. Not only do we work to stimulate the interest in golf, we also strive to provide social and recreational opportunities throughout. Our membership enjoys weekly events held each Thursday. Golfers of all levels participate. These may be individual or team events, and at minimum, monthly team events are computer pick’em events with members of all abilities golfing together as a team. Afterward you will find a little rehashing at the Ranch House.

Weekly events are great, but that is not all. We have special events throughout the year. Our first is the Ryder Cup. A three-day match play team event comprising golfers of all abilities split into two teams, Red and Blue. A day of two-man best ball, another of alternate shot, and an individual match play day. The second special event of 2022 is our Club Championship, complete with a champion’s belt and trophy. There are more awards to go around. After the special events, we often have socials—either lunch or just a gathering over a beverage. Aside from these two events, we have at least three additional special events scheduled, along with participating with the Women’s Golf Association for two events. Additionally, our annual holiday social brings the membership and their guests together for some fun.

Remaining compliant with the United States Golf Association (USGA) and Arizona Golf Association (AGA) regulations means that our Rules and Handicap chairman must monitor postings for all SaddleBrooke Ranch male golfers with handicaps. So, if you receive a brief note recognizing that a score was not posted for a round you completed, it’s just the Handicap chairman for the course doing his job. We appreciate your understanding.

We’ll be at the Club Expo on Saturday, March 5. Stop by and see us. Check out our website at sbrmga.com. Scroll down to the black button marked “The Scorecard Issue 1 2022.” Click on it to see our newsletter.
