League Policies
League Handbook: In order to help you find a league where you will be most comfortable, and make your league experience a good one, please review our league handbook. Click here to download.
Handicap Maintenance: All EWGA members receive a handicap option included with their membership dues and are encouraged to maintain a handicap.
Inclement Weather Policy: Call the golf course after 3:30 p.m. (for 9 hole leagues) to inquire whether league play will occur on that day. Generally, all league cancellations are rescheduled after the regular league season ends. There will be no raindates in the Sprain, Saxon Woods and Maple Moor leagues. The leagues has been extended to 12 weeks to account for rain cancellations.
Guest Policy: If a substitute player is needed in a league and there are none available, a regular league player may bring a non-member ONCE as a guest substitute for that night. The substitute player pays the greens fee like any other substitute player. If a guest plans on substituting more than once, they are required to join EWGA Westchester and pay the substitute fee. This can happen during the season.
Pre-Season League Meeting: Will be held Sunday, May 16th at 8 Sunset Lane, Harrison, NY 10528 at 1 PM, followed by an afternoon of fun with an extensive wine tasting by 'The Grape Exchange' and a roadshow by 'The Putting Doctor' with free putting lessons. All league plays and subs are asked to attend. Cost $20. To register, click here.
Schedule: Leagues do not play on Memorial Day, July 4th and Labor Day. Leagues make up that date on what would be the week after the scheduled end date.
Code of Conduct: All league players are expected to conduct themselves appropriately on the golf course. Players are expected to follow all local rules and rules of behavior, including Dress Code. EWGA reserves the right to terminate a players participation in the league if found not to be in compliance with the rules. If a player is terminated, her league fee is not refundable.
Pace of Play: EWGA supports Ready Golf and Maintain Your Position.
EWGA-Westchester endorses the Double Par Policy. If you have a handicap, your score will be your handicap maximum amount of strokes. If you are establishing a handicap, your score is a maximum of 10.
You are considered out of position when you reach the tee of a Par 3 and the group in front of you has already gone on to the next tee.
- Par 4 and the group in front of you is already on the green.
- Par 5 and the group in front of you is getting ready to hit into the green.
Your coordinator determines the format to be played each week. Your participation in the various games/competitions is part of the structure designed to help you enjoy the sport and social aspects of the league. Remember that your coordinator works hard to bring enjoyment and skill improvement to your league.
EWGA chapters operate with the goal to provide an opportunity for women to play golf in a supportive environment. If you have any concerns or questions, speak with your league coordinator or to Corrine Grandolfo. You may send her an email at golfleague@ewgawestchester.com.
