June News
- May 11, 2024
Welcome to June! The Philly Chapter’s three weeknight leagues and the traveling match play league all got well underway during May. The turnout and participation in all 4 leagues has been wonderful. There are still plenty of weekly league nights to play if you are still interested in joining a league. The chapter held a weekday event at Penn Oaks during May. The beautiful course and nice meal afterwards made for a wonderful day.
June is full of golf events. The month started with a group of Philadelphia golfers traveling to Bethlehem Golf Club for the Lehigh Invitational. Our next event is June 15th at Honeybrook, a chapter favorite. The Chapter will end the month on June 30th with an event at Neshanic Valley Golf Club. See more information below and register here.
Be sure to mark your calendars for this year’s Mystery Bus Golf event on August 11th. We will meet at a designated spot and a bus will take us to a surprise course for the day. This event is one of my and many other chapter members favorites.

Detailed instructions on how to register for leagues and registration links are provided below. Please read and follow the instructions to successfully register for 1 or more of our Chapter's leagues, keeping a few things in mind:
- Everyone needs to register for the leagues even if they've participated in the same league before. Each year, a new league portal with updated dates, weekly round sign-ups, games, information, etc. is created so registering for the new league each year ensures the most seamless way to receive communications from the league coordinators and to enter scores in Golf Genius for the different weekly games.
- Registering for the leagues requires login validation via your active LPGA Amateurs Philadelphia Chapter membership. Weekly league play is a chapter specific benefit and validating with your active membership automatically lets our league coordinators know you are a member of the Philadelphia Chapter.
- Everyone must register on their own; you cannot register a fellow active member.
- Registering for the leagues is required in order to sign up for weekly tee times.
- We welcome guests to try out our leagues twice before we ask that they become a member of the LPGA Amateurs Philadelphia Chapter! Guests, which include those who have not renewed their membership yet, will need to contact the league coordinators directly to sign up for tee times since they will not have access to do this on their own.
For White Manor, Pinecrest, and/or Spring Hollow league registration, please follow these directions for a successful registration:
- The league registration links will take you to the league portal, which is set up through Golf Genius. Do not sign in. If you are already signed in, log out of Golf Genius and click the league registration link again. Registration via the Golf Genius app on your phone will not work because you will already be signed in to Golf Genius.
- Click the grey "Register" button (this is located either on the left side or the bottom of the page, depending on your browser)
- Validate with your LPGA Amateurs credentials (not Golf Genius credentials)
- Complete required fields on registration page (i.e. Name, cell phone, LPGA Am ID, etc.)
- Select box to acknowledge Golf Genius software policy
- Click the grey “Register” button in the lower right corner of page
- Await confirmation email that you have successfully registered for the league
For those who already have a Golf Genius account login and password, that's all you need to do!
For those who do not have a Golf Genius account login and password yet (this is usually for new LPGA Amateurs members or those who have never created a Golf Genius account), please follow these additional directions to complete your registration:- After receiving confirmation email that you have successfully registered for the league, please contact Becca Proetto rebeccacummings251@gmail.com and let her know for which league you successfully registered, but don't have a Golf Genius account
- Becca will have an email sent to you from Golf Genius, which will have a unique link allowing you to create your Golf Genius account with a temporary password. Keep an eye out for this email and make sure to also check your spam folder
- After accessing the unique link, you will be asked to set a new password for your new Golf Genius account
- Having a Golf Genius account will allow you to use the Golf Genius app to receive notifications from the league coordinators, enter scores live during events and weekly league play, and also follow the live Leaderboard to see who is winning!
The Traveling Match Play League
League Coordinator: Susan Hunsicker 215-576-5473 (landline) 215-206-6139 (cell; texting is better than calling this number) golfwithsusan@aol.com
The Traveling Match Play League is a great opportunity to hone your match play skills, meet new people, and play new courses. In match play, you compete head-to-head with another golfer, one hole at a time. Your total score doesn’t matter. It’s a wonderful format for the inconsistent among us – and who can say their golf game IS consistent? Everyone who joins the league will be assigned up to four matches to play. The exact format will depend on how many sign up.
For each match, you and your opponent will decide where to play and when, within a set time window, usually including three weekends. To encourage players to complete their matches, points will be awarded for playing within the designated time frame. There will also be points based on the outcome of the match. The league usually begins in early May and runs through July. The only requirement is that you have an official, verifiable handicap, such as through LPGA Amateurs or GHIN. So sign up now. Golf season is here!LPGA Amateurs Philadelphia Website -
