April Update!

 It's officially April!  Pollen is in the air, and so is warmer weather; GOLFING weather!  We have a few updates for you here:


April 1st – Handicap Posting Season begins!

 

Beginning April 1st, you must post your score after every round.  Maintaining a Handicap Index enables you a wide range of competitive golf opportunities.  Whether it's to verify your entry into a local, state, or national championship, a club member guest, Monday outings or used in casual matches with friends maintaining a handicap is crucial to being able to participate in competitive events.  At Laurel Creek you must post your score on the day you play after every round.  Need a handicap?  See a member of our team to get you set up!

 

Some key changes for 2024 were announced.  Please click here for a full update:  https://www.usga.org/content/usga/home-page/handicapping/world-handicap-system/2024-revision/WHS-2024-3-Key-Changes.html


Changes to tee time reservations

For all full golf membership categories, the Board of Directors approved an advanced booking window of 21 days up from 14 days.  We hope this allows you to more easily reserve in advance your tee times.  If you have any questions about this change, please email Bob Hennefer at bhennefer@laurelcreek.org.
