Dear Members-
We at Wildwood Green want to thank you for your participation during the 2014 season. The
staff and I enjoyed all of the fun times we had during this past year’s events and look forward to
making more wonderful memories during 2015. The new season is upon us and we have an exciting
tournament schedule planned for you! This year’s schedule includes your favorites such as Couples
Golf, The Package Event Series and of course, the four major events. Please review the following
event information and plan your 2015 schedule accordingly. You will surely not want to miss out on
all the fun we will share this year!
Just as in 2014 we will be requiring all participants to have an established handicap recognized
by the USGA in the 2014 season. Handicapped events will be governed by USGA bylaws and
recommendations including adjusting course handicaps based on different slope and course ratings.
For more information on handicapping services and events or to sign up for your own GHIN handicap
please see a Golf Shop attendant today.
The Four Wildwood Green Major Events will kick off with the Spring Member-Member in
May followed by the Club Championships in June, the Fall Member-Member in September and the
Annual Battle at Ballybunion (Member-Guest) in October. We will pull out all the stops for these
events and look forward to another year of record breaking participation!
The 2015 season will look to build upon the events we introduced in 2014. We will be hosting
our Annual Match Play Championship throughout the 2015 season. The Match Play Championship
will be limited to 32 participants and will be flighted according to handicap. This event will give
participants a certain amount of time to complete their match and move on in their flight. The last two
standing will face off in two nine hole matches that will be played in succession. The winner will be
crowned 2015 Wildwood Green Match Play Champion. More information will be available through
the Golf Shop and through cyber communication in the coming weeks and months.
Be sure to check your email frequently as results and pictures will be posted through the Weekly
Update, Monthly Newsletters and our Facebook page. Thank you and we all look forward to another
great year!
Sincerely,
Jeff Engelhaupt
General Manager
