Ladies' Westside Golf League
Women golfers of all skill levels are invited to share the camaraderie of a round of golf with the Westside Golf League (WGL). WGL tees off at Cinco Ranch Golf Club every Tuesday morning. To join or for more information, please email your interest to wgl.cincoranch@gmail.com
WGL Mission
The mission of the Westside Ladies' Golf League is to provide a supportive, recreational environment for women to play golf on a regular basis with the objective of improving skills and enhancing knowledge of game etiquette and regulations.
Membership
Membership is open to any female golfer. Prospective members are invited to play one round as a guest. Dues are $55 per year , due in January, and cover administrative costs, prizes, and various expenses approved by the WGL Borad. Effective June 1, dues are pro-rated to $30 for the remainder of that calendar year. For more information, please contact the Westside Golf League at wgl.cincoranch@gmail.com.
League Play
Members wishing to play 18 holes are strongly encouraged to establish a CRGC handicap which is required to participate in the League Championship and monthly Game Days. A GHIN handicap is acceptable to begin play with WGL; submitting 4 scores from CRGC (WGL or independent play) will establish the CRGC handicap.
WGL plays every Tuesday with a shotgun start (June – September at 8:30 am; October – May at 9:00 am). Players must make a reservation by 3:00 pm the Sunday prior and are expected to arrive at the course 30 minutes before tee time. Failure to make a reservation may result in not being able to play. Cancellations must be made in advance of the tee time by contacting the Play Day Coordinator (wgl.cincoranch@gmail.com) and the Pro Shop (281-395-4653). Weekly pairings are random with the express intent to provide all players the opportunity to golf with everyone in the League. We strive to mix and match weekly foursomes to encourage current members to get to know new members, to intermingle high handicappers with low handicappers, and to ensure an efficient pace of play. Periodically, pairings are flighted to provide the opportunity for play with those of similar handicaps. Special requests will be honored only for those bringing a guest player.
The first Tuesday of the month is a “Game Day” event, with a designated format chosen by a Board Member. Game Day winners are recognized after play that day. Tuesday play is recorded each week in individual folders. In addition to participation, players note scores, pars, birdies, chip-ins, and closest-to-the-pin (CTP) wins for recognition at the annual awards luncheon. Weekly scores are entered in the CRGC handicap system for use in WGL play and will be used as official handicaps for WGL events. For new players, scores are to be recorded every week with the intent of establishing a CRGC handicap as quickly as possible. Currently, there is no 9-Hole League; however, golfers who wish to play only 9 holes are welcome to join WGL. Notify the Play Day Coordinator when you make a reservation.
League Championship
The Westside Golf League annual championship tournament is held in October. To participate, competitors must play a minimum of 15 WGL Tuesdays during the year, from the week following the prior year’s Club Championship, up to and including the week before the current year’s Club Championship. Winners are recognized at the annual awards luncheon in December.
