Points Cup Information
The Points Cup is a year long event, like the Fed EX cup on the PGA tour. In each of our events, the top 10 players in each flight get points according to the place they finish in. Your points get added up through out the year regardless of the flight you may have played in for an event or based on your index. The more tournaments you play in the more chances you have to get into the Points Cup Tournament.
Become a Tournament Sponsor and "Get Your Message Out"
1. Provide us with a 1/3 page copy of what your service offers and we will get it in the newsletter the month before the tournament. You also will be given a special reminder thanks in the following months newsletter.
2. The 2008 season offers 2 tee box signs (24X18) donated by Tom Jackse of Sign World of California. Please contact him at 760.828.7081 and get him your logo and what you want on the sign and they will be placed at the tournament.
Membership Information
The transition to online membership application and payment of member fees has been overwhelmingly successful. In the long run, it makes your renewals faster and more efficient. However, we have no control over the timeline of the SCGA in their processing of new applications. They update in the third week of every month. This means that it could be several weeks after you submit your application to the club before the SCGA will process it. This can create some confusion and frustration.
