Men's Golf

The $85 MGA fee will primarily be used for hosting a Men's Kickoff event and a season ending Golf Event & Awards Banquet. Also, $10 of the $80 fee is allocated to the Hole-in-One club. The money collected for the MGA will be used by the discretion of the Men's Golf Committee and is not a club fee. The MGA not only begins and ends the year with a bang but will instill a sense of commitment and camaraderie by the men who frequently participate in events and those that may only play a few times. We can all share in the excitement of the "club experience" through a season opening and season closing party.

The Men's Program also includes: Thursday golf (12:30 and 5:30), and weekly Saturday morning events.

This format embodies the spirit of sportsmanship, competition, and camaraderie that Ken Adams stood for. The format will be 3 9-hole matches, Brandybrook Head Golf Professional David Bobber captaining one team and Bristlecone Head Golf Professional Paul LoCicero captaining the other. The Adams Cup is best described as a one day NET Legend Cup. Legend Members can qualify for The Memorial Cup with their Blue Tee scores in our Thursday and Saturday games as well as rounds in the Stroke Play Club Championship.
