LA NINERS By Pamela June The LA Niners continued to weather the summer heat with wonderful rounds of nine-hole golf, plenty of smiles, and a whole lot of fun! Throughout the summer, the Niners enjoyed a variety of individual games designed to challenge themselves, along with a variety of interesting team games to mix things up. Of course, there are occasional mishaps. Sometimes they lose a golf ball. Sometimes they may lose their marbles. And sometimes they lose both at the same time! But whatever happens in this often unpredictable game, the Niners always manage to have some fun and share laughter on the course. A side game the Niners play is a little wager on yourself. Before the 46 round, players who want to participate put a quarter in the kitty. Then they can potentially cash in by making a chip-in, birdie, eagle, or even a hole-in-one! Those quarters can really add up! Just ask Patricia Fairall, who won an impressive $57.50 after making three chip-ins over a three-month period. The Niners will take a tally each month to see who takes home the pot. A big shout-out to Dot Bothwell for keeping all the stats and making sure everyone gets the credit, and when deserved, the cash, as pictured here! The LA Niners regular season begins October 1, 2026. If you plan to play this season or if you have been thinking about joining this fun, friendly, and forgiving group of lady golfers, sign up now! To join the Niners, complete the Membership Registration Form and pay your $35 membership dues before October 1. Registration forms are available at the Pro Shop. Mark your calendar for the Opening Day Luncheon on November 3, immediately following our round. It’s the perfect opportunity to kick off another season of 9-hole golf, enduring friendships, good food, and plenty of laughter. The LA Niners look forward to seeing everyone on the course and to another terrific season together. Bring your clubs, bring your sense of humor—and maybe a few extra balls.
