The Senior Men's Golf Association
is a group of about ninety guys that play golf almost every Wednesday
morning (@ 8:30 AM Summer or 9:00 AM Winter) at the Hills (also known as the
Ranch) golf course in McKinney, Tx. To join, you must be fifty-five or
older (or become 55 in the current calendar year), have golfing privileges
on the Hills Golf Course, and pay our $30 annual dues.
During our normal Wednesday play
days we have a "closest to the pin" ($2 entry fee)
contest and a different, fun, everybody has a chance to win, tournament
format every week ($5 entry fee). The entry fee pool is paid out as prizes
in pro shop credit. You can see the formats by clicking the "Schedule"
button at the top of this page.
We play inter-club tournaments
with other nearby Clubs, you can see who and when on
our
"Schedule". The inter-club tournaments each
have a separate entry fee, usually about $40, that pays for prizes, golf and
cart, and the meal. We also have a year-long player-of-the-year contest
where points are accumulated by playing (and winning) in SMGA events
throughout the year. We sponsor an annual match play tournament, and end the year with a two day SMGA Championship
Tournament followed by a really good banquet (free, the banquet alone is
worth the cost of the annual dues!)
If you would
like to join our group, please send an email to our Secretary-Treasurer
(see below for contact information), expressing your interest in joining. He will get the
needed information from you and collect your dues. Then sign up in the
SMGA binder in the Hills Pro Shop for the Wednesday tournament.
