Look for other events to be added to the calendar – which will soon be available on the club’s website Along with the above event we will be adding back the Friday night couples, holiday scrambles/tournaments, and the Summer Sunset Series.

Management has recently approved an upgrade to our current Golf Genius Tournament Management system which will allow us to take event registrations online, manage event scoring to include live scoring with their tournament app, and track player participation throughout the year so that we can recognize a Player of the Year.

I look forward to being able to provide you with an update in next month’s newsletter as we begin to add event registration to our website where you’ll be able to sign up for events as soon as they are live on the club’s event calendar, as well as find results from the events as they are being played!

On a separate note, some of you may have noticed cones at 25 yards and 50 yards off the greens on the front nine on Saturday afternoons Those are tee markers for junior golfers that are participating in the weekly junior golf classes (Tuesdays, Thursdays, Saturdays) every other Saturday I host between 12 and 24 junior golfers for a 9-hole tournament I’ve created 28 new golfers (defined as a golfer who can shoot 36 from 25 yards off of the green), and several have progressed all the way back to 150 yards which means they have shot 36 or better from 100 yards.

I’d like to take a moment to thank everyone for their support (compliments, equipment donations, etc.) as I work to build a junior golf program here at Rockledge Country Club In addition to the golf instruction and Saturday afternoon 9-hole junior tournaments, the Club will be hosting the Florida State Golf Association’s ‘Florida Junior Tour’ two-day (36-Hole) junior golf tournament here in May and I am looking to add a “Platinum Coast Junior Invitational” later this summer!
