We Might Just Get Going Soon

Here's an update on league play for 2021.

I've been in touch with Steve and Tom this past week and now that golf is back on the menu for this second summer with the pandemic, it looks like we could be playing soon.

It's my understanding that we're looking at Wednesday June 2nd for the first night of league play. At this point I don't have an updated schedule to share.

Steve Powell was contacting team captains to confirm the returnees and will let me know the schedule once it is available and as always I'll try to post it here as soon as I can.

If I get any more information I'll pass it on.

For quicker updates, I try to post to the league Twitter account which can be located under the name @mhwnml if you're on Twitter.

League In Limbo

We hoped for the best but once again the virus has thrown us a curve and the league didn't start tonight as we'd planned.

Hopefully Premier Ford will make an announcement in the very near future that will allow us to get back on the golf course.

How the league will proceed and when will be determined and I'll be sure to let you know once I get news to share.

In the meantime, get vaccinated if you can and stay safe.

2021 Schedule Released

As I mentioned in the previous post, the league is scheduled to begin on April 28th if all goes as planned.

The situation with Covid19 continues to be a fluid one and the vaccine's are rolling out which we hope will mean restrictions will begin to loosen once we get through the current "lockdown".

So with that said, here is the 2021 Men's League Schedule for the first 11 weeks.

If at anytime during the season you wish to look at the schedule you will find a link in the panel on the right.

Stay safe and see you soon.

League Starts April 28th

We have an official start date for our 2021 season.

The first night for golf will be on April 28th with tee times just like last season. I have the schedule and will try to post it this weekend when I have time.

In the meantime, there will be some other changes to how things will run this season and it is described below. 

See you on the 28th!

• League dues are $30 this year with 95% being paid out in prize money.

• Last year’ s COVID19 rules still in effect. Only 4 players and tee times.

• The first 11 weeks play every team once.

• After that the top 6 points and bottom 6 points will split into 2 groups.

• The next five weeks play each of those teams once with points cumulating from first round. Schedule to be determined.

• For the playoffs we will split into 3 Flights. Schedule to be determined.

• “A” Flight teams 1-4 by points from first two rounds.

• “B” Flight teams 5-8 by points from first two rounds.

• “C” Flight teams 9-12 by points from first two rounds.

• Each Flight will play each other once with total gross to determine Flight winners as in previous years.

• 1st tie breaker will be points head on.

• 2nd tie breaker will be the lowest individual gross from each team.
  

Golf Course Open

Spring has sprung and unfortunately the Covid19 Pandemic is also still in bloom but even with the current lock down I'm pleased to report that Murray Hills Golf Course opened today for the season.

I'm still awaiting official word on a possible start date for our league to begin play but I've heard the that it will likely be at the beginning of May.

Once I have the "official" info from the powers that be, I'll be sure to share them here but I'm also sure the team captains will hear from Steve Powell once the schedule is set.

In the meantime, I'm sure many of our members will be getting out to shake the rust off. Just remember that you are still required to book tee times or at the very least call ahead.

See you soon and stay safe.

Have A Safe & Happy Holiday

The golf course has officially closed for the season and we now have to settle in for what will likely be one of the longest winters of our lives.

Despite the cold weather, snow and ice we have some hope that 2021 will bring some cheer in the form of a Covid19 vaccine. Perhaps a return to some type or normality by this time next year isn't just a Christmas wish.

In the meantime, to all of our members, your families and loved ones, stay safe and have a wonderful holiday season and a Happy New Year. If all goes well, we'll meet once again in the Spring.

Photos of Past Seasons

We didn't get to have a normal 2020 golf season or playoff party due to the Covid19 pandemic so just to wrap things up for this crazy year, here are some photos taken of many of our league members over the years. Some have passed away while others look a few years younger. You can click on the photos to see them larger and to click through them easily.

Continue to stay safe, have a good winter and we hope to see you again in the Spring of 2021.
