Centennial Men's Senior Association
CENTENNIAL SENIOR MEN'S GOLF ASSOCIATION (CSMGA)
ATTENTION ALL CSMGA MEMBERS AND GOLFERS AGE 55 AND OVER. WE WANT TO EMPHASIZE THAT ALL THE SENIORS IN OUR AREA ARE WELCOME AND WILL CONSIDER THE ADVANTAGES OF JOINING CSMGA. OUR BENEFITS INCLUDE THE FOLLOWING:
We play in four flights so that we can accommodate any handicap. We also allow eligible players to use the Red tee boxes. You do not need a GHIN handicap or membership; we keep our own handicaps based on your recent play history with us (4/7) very little sand in our handicaps. You can access weekly pairings and starting holes via e-mail thru Google Groups.com. We play each week from March through October weather/conditions permitting as to allow plenty of opportunities to compete and meet new people. We have a 2 day Senior Men's Championship event in August (WHITE and RED TEEs compete separately). We play a mix of team Scrambles, Best Ball, Chicago, Chapman and Individual Medal play events. Free range balls will be provided for players on most Wednesday tournaments who paid the $5 entry fee. Nearly 100% of the entry fees are paid back to the players in prize money. Prize money is awarded as credit for purchases in the Pro Shop which also provides CSMGA members with a 10% discount. We have a Hole in One pot that automatically comes from club dues and residual entry fees. We have weekly Closest to the Pin (KPs) on all the par 3s for both Red and White players included in the $5 entry fee. (8 in all). In June we have a hot dog/hamburger social after play at no cost to players. Usually, the first of the event of the month, we also have donuts for our members.
Usually there is a separate $3 skins game that is flighted as A-B-C-D. Late sign-ups/entries are not permitted to participate because of the effect it has on the cutoff line. ONLY Gross skins are paid. A Skin is the lowest unduplicated score on a hole in each flight. Sometimes a par wins a skin.
THE $5 WEEKLY ENTRY FEES (AND $50 ANNUAL DUES BY CHECK OR CASH ) CAN ALSO BE SUBMITTED IN THE RED STRIPED ENVELOPES THAT MUST BE PLACED INTO THE SLOTTED LOCK BOX MARKED "SENIOR BOX" NEAR THE WEST ENTRANCE BY COMPUTER STATION. WEEKLY $5 FEES ARE DUE BEFORE 5:00 PM SUNDAYS TO BE ASSURED A SPOT IN THE TOURNAMENT. LATE SIGN UPS and cancellations must be handled through the course PRO-SHOP ON MONDAY, TUESDAY, AND WEDNESDAY AM In order to assign a starting hole if one is available. ALSO, the next week's entry can be assured if the entry fee is paid shortly after play each Wednesday to the Sign-up Roster volunteer. Late Entries are not guaranteed a spot on the roster; and, most late cancellations and no-shows will forfeit their $5 entry fee.
