Golf
2017 Northern Virginia Retired Men’s Golf Association (NVRMGA) Don’t miss out on a great experience of playing local country club courses. If you are 55 or older, you can become a member of the NVRMGA and do just that! ANCC will field two separate teams, one at Arlington and one at Fairfax. Both teams are always looking for new players. The ANCC Arlington team was the league champion in 2015 and 2010, and co-champions with the ANCC Fairfax team in 2011. In 2016, the ARL team finished in second place and the FFX team finished in seventh place. Both teams are looking forward to successful seasons in 2017. The 2017 ANCC teams will be put together within the next few months, so there is still plenty of time for you to sign up. HOW? Sign up the ANCC website before 31 January 2017 for the ARL Team, and by 1 March 2017 for the FFX Team by visiting the NVRMGA page under Golf Organizations (there are separate links for the ARL team and FFX team). Even if you were a NVRMGA player last year, it is required you sign-up again this year. A contact list will be posted on the golf bulletin board in each ANCC pro shop whereby eligible ANCC golfers not currently part of a team, but wishing to join us in 2017, can express interest. How does NVRMGA work? We play each of 12 opposing teams twice, once at home and once away between early April and mid-October. Play is on Thursdays, teeing off at 8:45 a.m. at home and either 8:45 or 9:00 away. As a team member, you will be assigned to play in at least six matches and have the opportunity to volunteer as a substitute for matches to which you are not assigned. A schedule will be produced in early February for ARL and early March for FFX indicating which matches you have been assigned. These are full handicap matches, so no need to worry about your current handicap index.
