Sign-ups close tomorrow for our next weekend MGA 1-Day tournament, the 2-Man Team Shamble, which is set to be played this Saturday, July 30th with a 9:30 AM shotgun start. Please sign up as a team of 2 and, if you are in need of a partner, let us know at [email protected] and we will help to pair you up.
To confirm your Shamble sign-up, please double check for your team on the online leaderboard.
For our 2-Man Shamble format, both players tee off, pick the best tee-shot, and each man then plays their own ball into the hole from the chosen tee shot location. Individual best ball scoring determines your team score for the hole for both gross and net.

For Men’s Night this week, the 3rd edition of the 2022 Shootout series is here! For our Shootout format on the Back 9, all players meet on the 10th tee at 4:45 PM — please be a few minutes early so we can organize everyone’s Back 9 course handicaps. As a full group (think 25-some), all competitors play #10 together (please mark your ball 😂). The low 9 net scores on #10 progress to the 11th tee. A chip-off will be used to break any ties for who proceeds to #11 (top 9 low net from #10).
On holes 11-18, we eliminate 1 player with the highest net score on each hole: i.e. 9 competitors play #11, 8 competitors play #12…all the the way down to 2 players on the 18th hole. Chip-offs decide tied-for-high-score holes.
The last man standing after #18 has been played is the Shootout winner.
For this week’s Shootout festivities, once again, our special guest Shootout referee is back—current Springfield Golf & Country Club member, 2019 Stearns Cup Champion, former MGA Competition Chair, fantastic match play opponent, and all-around great guy—Mr. Mike Lyons. Mike will handle all handicap calculations, rulings, and chip-off decisions for elimination.

Two Sundays ago, the NGC A-Team matched up vs. Piedmont Club and collected 7 points in a 7-11 loss and, over the weekend, the team completed its final two matches of the WMGA summer competition. On Saturday, the team took on Trump National DC and battled to a 7.5-10.5 final tally. On Sunday, Washington Golf & CC was our final opponent of the year and, in some hard fought matches, NGC came away with 5 points. NGC’s 19.5 points collected total over the 3 matches this season was a big step up from the total of 7 points from 2021.
Thank you to all the NGC staff who helped to make the matches we hosted at home a success!

For Men’s Night this week, we’ll be playing our Chicago format on the Back 9. Please record gross scores for all holes on scorecards with names clearly marked and turn in all completed cards to the Pro Shop.
Chicago Format:
Players start with a negative number of points (based on 18-hole course handicaps) then add positive points during their round. The idea is to get from the negative to the positive, clearing your “hurdle” by as many points as possible.
Scratch and 1-handicappers start with -20
20 & 21 start with -10
2 & 3 handicappers start with -19
22 & 23 start with -9
4 & 5 start with -18
24 & 25 start with -8
6 & 7 start with -17
26 & 27 start with -7
8 & 9 start with -16
28 & 29 start with -6
10 & 11 start with -15
30 & 31 start with -5
12 & 13 start with -14
32 & 33 start with -4
14 & 15 start with -13
34 & 35 start with -3
16 & 17 start with -12
36+ start with -2 points
18 & 19 start with -11
During the round, positive points are added on the following basis using gross hole scores:
Double Bogey or worse = 0 points
Bogey = 1 point
Par = 2 points
Birdie = 4 points
Eagle = 8 points
