NHMC Club Championship Reminder
Thursday August 13, 2009 @ 9:48 amBy Josh Worisek
The Club Championship is coming up in just over a week now. This is a two day event (Sat. Aug 22 and Sun. Aug 23). The Saturday event you need to make a tee time (you can call ahead now to set up tee times if you haven't already). You can choose who you play with but you are asked to get a tee time before 10 or 11 am. The Sunday event will then be a normal 8:30am shotgun start and you will be placed in your flight. Scores will be combined from both days. Also, there will be a steak dinner to follow the Sunday event.
You must play Saturday to be flighted for Sunday!
19 Man Shootout-
Qualification for the 19 man shootout has begun. To try to qualify you need to let the clubhouse know and pay $3 per attempt. The lowest NET scores will get you in. Keep an eye on the board in the clubhouse to be sure that your score hasn't been bumped off.
The Calcutta scores and Matchplay results are way behind on being updated and thats my fault... I should have those up to date this weekend.
Also, as of August 11, the All-City Tournament still has some openings. If you are interested in playing in it (looks like there are already 25 or so NHMC members signed up) check out this website and get a registration in ASAP.

The matchplay brackets are currently working on the website (although they are not finished) from the matchplay link at the top of the page (it opens a new window). The clubhouse has the official brackets, so if there is a discrepency go with the one they have and let me know. Also, some of the consolation brackets currently have "Byes" that could change depending on how the players who had a first round bye do in their first match (second round) (All players are guaranteed two matches, not including byes
Special thanks to Brian Clarey for donating the Towne Place Suite stays for several individual awards for the 2 man combo.
