Fall Golf Tournament @ Big Creek

The Fall 2006 Golf Tournament will be held on Saturday, September 23rd at the Big Creek Golf Club.

Players should arrive at noon to check in and warm up. Tee time will be at 1pm.

The Big Creek Golf Course is the sister course of the Club at North Creek where we held the event last Spring. Big Creek is a great course and the staff and owners of the two clubs have been extremely gracious over the past few years in hosting the event. The entry fee for the tournament will be $60/player. This fee includes greens fees, a cart, and free range balls. Also, each participant will receive a goodie bag of great SBA and golf merchandise, lunch, and drinks (both alcoholic and non). At check in, players will be allowed to purchase mulligans for $10 and shots from the ladies' tees for $15.

The event will begin with a shotgun start and various holes on the course will be designated as "specialty holes." Specialty holes will include such designations as "closest to the hole" and "longest drive." The winner of each will be awarded a prize following the tournament.

Sign-up sheets will be posted on the SBA BUlletin Board in the lunchroom. Please feel free to sign up even if you don't have a full team of four.

For those golf enthusiasts, here are some more details about the course:

The Club at Big Creek is one of the best-kept secrets in Memphis-area golf. This secluded 18-hole course underwent a major renovation in 1999 and still maintains its quiet, wooded surroundings.
