Wednesday Night Member’s 9 Hole League
The Wednesday Night Member League has a long history at Metcalfe. We are a social league (not competitive) that gives you opportunity to meet, play and form friendships with other members that you might not otherwise have the opportunity to do so. Each week we have different games that we play as a team, in pairs, or solo. We have prizes (small monetary) and a draw for either a jug of beer or half liter of wine if you land on the green on the designated par 3 that week (Rotates between hole 6 and 8). The cost to play is $8.00. $5.00 subsidizes prizes and monthly special events and $3.00 is used for a weekly 50/50 draw.
After the round groups typically head to Hickories for food & Drink. Prize winnings (other than the certificates for the beer or wine) will be credited to accounts by the golf shop staff and an email will be sent out to those who participated with a listing of the winners. Certificates for the jug of beer or half liter of wine will be given out the evening of play.
Our Loyalty program will resume this year which acknowledges those members who participate in at least 10 nights through each season with a gift at 5, 10 and 15 years of participation.
