The Monday and Friday Golf Leagues play at four local courses, all within 15-20 minutes of Leisure World. The courses are always quite full, so advance league reservations are required with a signup sheet available at each round.
There is a prize pool for each round that players are not obligated to enter. Rewards are given for low net in each flight, birdies, closest to the pin on two par threes, and for the lowest number of putts in each flight. Holes-in-one and eagles (two under par), although infrequent, are generously rewarded. If interested, contact Gary Stivers at 714-313-3697 or Dave LaCascia at 801-674-5975.
