2010 Fullerton Golf City Championship

Sunday, May 30th, 2010

This years City Championship will be held on August 7th & 8th 2010. The first day will be held at Fullerton Golf Course, and the second day will be at Coyote Hills. The fee for this 2 day event is only $190. Your fee will cover green fee and cart fees for both days, a $10 lunch coupon for both days, warm up range balls, and a tee prize. To play Fullerton and Coyote Hills with range balls on a weekend  would normally cost $200, and that doesn’t include lunch, tee prize, or the prize money to be handed out to the top players of each flight.

There will be two flights in this event, a gross flight, and a net flight. To qualify for the gross flight you must be a 4.9 or less. To qualify for the net flight you must be a 5.0 or above and also have a current SCGA or USGA handicap. You do not need to have a handicap for the gross flight.

Saturday will start at 10am with the net flight teeing off first. Tee times will be posted and available Friday August 6th. The second day times will be determined by the scores posted on Saturday. For all the rules and procedures for this event, go to the rules and procedure page on Fullertongolfevents.com

This event started in the 1990’s and now after having a new staff take it over in 2005, The Fullerton City Championship has been getting better. This is a two day event with one day at Fullerton Muni, and then one day at Coyote Hills. The two golf courses are both quite tight and narrow. Gives the golfer a great challenge. Fullerton has that local club feel, while Coyote Hills has more of a country club feel. Two great venues for this event.

SCGA Golf Course Sale

Friday, May 7th, 2010

SCGA Golf Course Sale

The SCGA has a commitment to provide its members with the highest quality and most comprehensive services and programs possible. The SCGA Golf Course, purchased in 1994 to provide an additional member benefit, did not live up to our original objectives to serve as a multi-faceted member benefit, including use for member tournaments and member play. Therefore, effective April 30, the course has been sold.

While the SCGA’s course did find many successes, a combination of factors, principally its location, prevented the property from serving as a benefit for all 155,000 Southern California members. Moving forward, we will better serve the SCGA community by focusing on new and expanding services that will benefit the membership as a whole, such as Member Outings, Summer Series, a comprehensive Web site and broader-based partnerships.
