Important Notes For 2024

- All players must purchase their GHIN online due to changes with Kansas Golf Association (Central Links). This is due to the fact that your GHIN Handicap will be valid 1 year from the day you sign up. So everyone could have a different expiration date. This will also allow you to setup a renewal reminder along with an auto renew so you will never be without your handicap. com/handicap-sign-up/ (under Golf Course tab ~ Handicap sign-up)

In order to win the bid on the tee time auction, the bidder must be an active paid Men’s League member for the current season.

If next bidder out-bids you by placing a bid of $20 ($15 +$5), the software will automatically place the next bid on your behalf for $25 ($20+$5).

Premium Season Long Tee Time Rules
- The tee time is valid for up to 5 golfers.
- The group who wins the tee time will be responsible for calling and canceling the tee time when the tee time is not being used. If 2 or more no-shows occur during the season without a 24-hour cancellation notice, the group may lose the remaining reserved Men’s League tee times for the season.
- The group who wins the tee time will be responsible for calling and adjusting the tee time size if the group is smaller than the reserved tee time. If tee time constantly shows up with fewer golfers than reserved, the group may lose the remaining reserved Men’s Leauge tee times for the season or the golf course may adjust the reserved tee time size for the remainder of the season.
- The golf course reserves the right to add golfers to your tee time when space is available.
- The money raised from the online auction will be added to the Men’s Leauge Championship.
For groups that missed the Men’s League tee time auction and/or didn’t win the tee time they bid on, will still have the option to purchase a premium reserved tee time if available for the remainder of the Men’s League season. The fee to reserve a premium season long tee time for the remaining open tee times on Wednesday’s Men’s League will be $20 per tee time.
For Men’s Leaague members that didn’t get a premium reserved tee time, the remaining open tee times will be available to book 7-days in advance online at 6:00am, over the phone or in person each week.
Any remaining open tee times on Wednesday’s not booked by Men’s League members will be open to the public 4-days in advance.
Golfers new to the Men’s League who need help finding a group or meeting new people should see Patrick Shaw, PGA Head Professional or pro shop staff.
