Championship: 0.0 - 13.0
1st Flight:     13.1 - 20.0
2nd Flight:    20.1 - 27.0
3rd Flight:     27.1 - 33.0
4th Flight:     33.1 and higher
 
The stroke play winners and 1st place Scramble Team will advance to the Semi-Final Championship at Hiddenbrooke on July 28th!

Joyce Glatt ties for 3rd place - NCGA
Poppy Hills, June 4th & 5th

 Our very own EWGANEB chapter member, Joyce Glatt, tied for 3rd place in the 46th Annual NCGA Senior Net Championship at Poppy Hills last week. 
 
Joyce writes: "It was a lot of fun and pretty surprising that I placed, considering my 10 on the first day.  Poppy Hills GC was beautiful and all the players and NCGA officials and volunteers were super. 
   I want to thank EWGA-NEB members Jill Honeyman and Diane Yasuda for helping me qualify by playing a practice round with me at the Poppy Ridge qualifying site."
