RGA kicks off year with best ball

The Refaluwasch Golf Association will herald 2005 with a Two-Man Best Ball Tournament this Saturday, Jan. 15, at the Coral Ocean Point Resort golf course.

Showtime is set at 11am with tee-off scheduled an hour later at 12pm. Entry fee is $30 and slots are open for 12 pairs or 24 players.

Club president Jess Wabol said pairings would be determined through a raffle and the handicaps of teams would then be averaged to keep track of the best ball scores.

Wabol said the club decided to start the year with the best ball event to make players more relaxed and develop camaraderie among members.

The RGA president also said that the club is entertaining new members at the start of the year. Membership fee is $50, which is the same cost for renewals. Wabol is reminding current RGA members to take care of their membership dues as early as possible.
