Men's League Play

Watermark CC has a terrific league for the men members of the Club. On Thursday's from late April through the end of August men's league golf takes place. The men form their own two-man teams and play 9-hole matches. The format is a two man best ball with full handicap and teams will choose a tee time "bracket" that best fits their schedule (Early: 3:15 - 4:00, Middle: 4:10 - 5:00, Late: 5:10 - 6:00). The League is divided into two groups classified as "lower handicap" and "higher handicap". The best ball format is great in that your team only needs one net score on each hole to match against the other team's one net score. Let's face it, we all may love golf, but it sure is nice to know your partner's got you covered when you're having "one of those holes".....

Points are awarded for winning or tying a hole with each match worth 18 total points. Teams accumulate those points over two halves of the season with the 2nd half starting over at zero for all teams. The teams who accumulate the most points in each half are given Pro Shop credit dollars that they can use toward spending on merchandise in the Pro Shop.

The League is tremendously popular and each year has approximately 150 men who participate. It doesn't really matter if you are golfer in for the competition or just a "really busy guy" looking for a scheduled game of golf to be present in your hectic life, the League is a great place to relax and have fun. Each week the Chef brings out the grill on the outdoor patio for some great post golf specials, as about 80-100 of the players will sit down and relax for a while after their round.

As a new member, you may not know anyone right away in the spring and there are two potential options for you. You can sign up as a "single" and the Pro Shop Staff will do their best to find a partner of similar handicap and tee time availability or you can post your name on the Sub-List and guys will call or email you when they need subs. With 150 men in the League, there is a need for sub-players just about every week.
