CWDGA Member Services

Each year the CWDGA conducts:

Four-Ball Match Play (in each of the five sections)

Tournaments:

-- Annual Championship

-- Better-Ball of Pairs

-- Senior Better-Ball of Pairs

Eligibility: Any woman golfer from a member club in good standing who meets the CWDGA eligibility and handicap requirements is eligible to play in all events. To remain in good standing, unless exceptional circumstances exist, a member club must allow the use of its facility when requested, which is usually once every two to three years for Four-Ball Match Play and once every ten to fifteen years for a Tournament. The Golf Chair and Team Captain at each member club are responsible for assisting the CWDGA in securing play dates at their home course.

Services to Member Clubs:

-- a comprehensive website, www.cwdga.org, with access to Four-Ball Match Play and Tournament information and continuing development of online resources;

-- links to other Chicago and Illinois golf associations;

-- uniform course and slope ratings;

-- the CWDGA Handbook for Members publication;

-- meetings to assist member clubs in setting up their local golf programs;

-- Rules Seminars;

-- instructions in handicapping and rules interpretation;

-- presentation of CWDGA hole-in-one pins.

Membership dues are assessed annually by the CWDGA for each club. Assistance to member clubs is available from the CWDGA throughout the season.
