Distance Measuring Devices Approved for 2009

For 2009, the CSGA has adopted the local rule allowing use of distance measuring devices in their tournaments (click here for details). To be consistent with CSGA, the SNEWGA Board voted to permit the use of distance measuring devices (including GPS devices) in all SNEWGA events, as well. That means that USGA-approved distance measuring devices, like the SkyCaddie GPS, can be used in all SNEWGA events.

Please note, if, during a stipulated round, a player uses a distance-measuring device that is designed to gauge or measure other conditions that might affect her play (e.g., gradient, wind speed, temperature, etc.), the player will be in breach of Rule 14-3, for which the penalty is disqualification, regardless of whether any such additional function is actually used.

eClubhouse is Here!

eClubhouse was created by the folks at GHIN and is provided by CSGA. It gives SNEWGA members many benefits, not the least of which is the ability to contact other members at the click of a button. Looking for a partner for an Invitational? Go to the "Players Wanted" forum and post a "want ad". Or look up a friend's contact information, and send her a note directly.

For those of you who are stats mavens, you’ll have an easy way of tracking your game progress (fairways, greens, sandies, etc.) throughout the year.

To access eClubhouse, go to http://snewga.ghinclub.com, or click the eClubhouse link on the left navigation bar under Club/Member Info. All current SNEWGA members are already setup for access to eClubhouse. If you have trouble logging in or for more information, contact Karen DeBartolo or Debbie Johnson.
