NEWBURY – With the shorts and flip flop weather last week, winter may seem a long way off, but hearty New England golfers know better. It is time to sign up for winter competitive leagues at the Newbury Golf Center.
Last year, 160 players competed in its winter leagues, using the center’s 20 covered and heated bays using “Ball Flight” all winter to keep their game sharp.
“This season we have partnered with Golf Genius software to offer real-time scoring and live leaderboards for the entire 12 weeks of our leagues,” said professional instructor Eric Sorensen.
The leagues start Nov. 27 and run for 12 weeks. It offers an individual handicap league and a two-person non-handicap league for the casual golfer looking to get more comfortable on the golf course. All our leagues are “floating leagues,” which means players have a seven-day window to play their round for the week. If players miss a week, they can make it up.
Playing 18 holes takes an hour.
TopTracer, the leader in range technology, offers more than 25 different golf courses to play. Its technology tracks the flight of the ball.
Beginner/intermediate leagues are designed for players with no handicap or a handicap higher than 30. The handicap leagues are designed for players with a USGA handicap under 36.
The season costs $100 per person, plus the cost of the balls each week. Winners will receive prizes for each league.
