Team League Play - quick link with Team Registration button.

NOTE:  Major change in Team League Play from previous years.  Each club can register unlimited teams, however, the team must be the same four players for all events this year. (We will no longer be identifying players for teams.)  Teams can be comprised of any four players as long as all members registered with NCGA through our club – LPGA Amateurs Sacramento Chapter.  You can form your own team, but please notify Pam Katros when a team is formed.  They will be named sequentially, i.e. LPGA Amateurs Sacramento 1, LPGA Amateurs Sacramento 2, etc.   Team League Play will be scored on the Women’s One Day Series play dates.  Check with your friends and coordinate your events if you’d like to be on a team.  Don’t forget – the first phase registration opens Monday Jan 12. 

Happy New Year!

I’m honored to serve as your NCGA Club Representative and thrilled to share some exciting changes for women golfers in 2026. As someone who has enjoyed NCGA’s Monday play days and major tournaments for years, I’m delighted by the expanded opportunities now available to all of us.

NEW IN 2026 FOR WOMEN 

No Participation Restrictions: If you’re an NCGA member, you can now play in any event—including the Women’s One Day Series, all Legacy tournaments (even those previously limited to WGANC/private club members), and the brand-new Women’s Match Play Challenge.

Points Program: A new year-long points program will recognize and reward top earners at the end of the year.

More Events: The schedule is growing, with new events being added daily.

Pam Katros has stepped up to the challenge of serving as our NCGA Club Representative.  Every NCGA club is required to have a representative who will help members become aware of opportunities to play and learn.  NCGA has rolled out an entire new program aimed specifically at WOMEN'S golf events.  Details are still being worked out.  Pam is in communication with NCGA to learn all that this means for you - the golfer! 

The first registration window for NCGA events opens January 12. 

Look for updated info from Pam prior to that date!  Thanks for volunteering!

The Tuesday Casual Play group and other members set out to use our Haggin Oaks golf certificate on December 30.  A final opportunity for free golf in 2025!  Maybe we can set a goal of using those certificates a bit earlier in 2026.  It was cold but we proved to be a hardy group of golfers.  Hoping everyone is setting some golf goals for 2026 which includes more opportunities for fun rounds with friends.

Chao Chen, Lori Lucius, and Sonya Bradley line up to turn in those FREE golf certificates.  (Sonya was disappointed about using it early this year....not her usual 12/31 outing.)

Our best pun writer and leader of the Tuesday Casual Play group -- Betty Galvez!

Marcia Whiting, Marian Kubiak, and Andra Saxe bundle up for the final round!
