Begins May 4th
Play 3 holes, play 9 holes, or just ride in the cart!  This for-fun-only series of events is a great way to meet other women while enjoying the scenery of LCC.  There aren’t any competition or formats, just come out and meet other ladies of your ability level and have fun!  On Thursday, September 7th there will be a 9-hole Member-Guest where guest fees will be waived.
 
Scotch Old Pal
Begins May 17th
Scotch Old Pal is a year-long team match play event with both Men’s and Women’s divisions.  Teams compete in a Scotch format based on their combined handicaps.  The Scotch format is when each player hits their tee shot, then you will switch & play each other’s balls for the 2nd shot.  Next, you will decide which ball you think is better and play Alternate Shot until the ball is in the hole (whosever ball you chose, the other player will hit).  You will repeat this for all 18 holes.  Team handicaps are determined by taking 60% of the A player and 40% of the B player.  We then round to the nearest whole number and add up the two handicaps.  This will be your team handicap for the match.  Matches are scheduled by the players and must be completed within the deadlines given by the Golf Professional Staff. 
 
The Losantiville Cup
September 18-19th
The Losantiville Cup is LCC’s version of the Ryder Cup where team Chad takes on team Brett.  Members earn Losantiville Cup Points based on how they finish in tournaments throughout the year.  Players are invited to play by the Golf Professional Staff based on their accumulated points over the year.  The event starts with a pairings party where captains draft their teams and assign pairings for the first day of play.
