LA NINERS By Pamela June The LA Niners kicked off the new season with a Par 3 Scramble and Lunch with Friends. There was a wonderful turnout for lunch, where everyone enjoyed 45 pizza, a VERY loaded salad bar and those delicious, hot-out-of-the-oven chocolate chip cookies! The cookies alone are worth showing up for…but, of course, the Niners’ spirit, laughter and fun are always the best part. Everyone received a raffle ticket, and four lucky ladies went home with some great prizes. If you’ve been thinking about joining the LA Niners, now is a great time! We’re an amazing group of ladies who play nine holes every Tuesday morning, and our league is open to everyone, regardless of skill level. Whether you’ve been golfing for years or are still figuring out where to put that little white ball, there’s a place for you with the Niners! Simply complete a membership form and pay the $35 annual league fee. Forms are available at the Pro Shop, HFC and Clubhouse, and you can start playing right away. To participate in competitions, you’ll need a GHIN handicap. To establish one, record your scores for three 18-hole rounds or six 9-hole rounds. GHIN tracks your scores and calculates your handicap so golfers of different skill levels can compete fairly. Current Niners, be sure to keep your GHIN current and updated each year! We’re looking forward to seeing our Snowbirds return and having everyone join us for the LA Niners Opening Festivities on November 3rd! You definitely don’t want to miss the laughter, fun, camaraderie, and prizes! We’ll be raffling off $20 gift cards! Tee It Up with the Niners and attend Opening Festivities! November Game Lineup: November 3 – Tee It Up Tuesday Scramble November 10 – 2 Best Nets November 17 – Step Aside Scramble November 24 – 4 Person Scramble So dust off those clubs, update your GHIN and come join us! Nine holes. Lots of laughs. Great friendships. That’s how the LA Niners roll!
