Spring Senior A-team competition is rapidly approaching! With the dissolution of the Washington Metropolitan Golf Association, the Northern Virginia Golf Association is revamping the Spring Senior A-team competition.

conflict alternate date) April Round of 8: Saturday, 19 April Easter Sunday, 20 April --- no play. Semi-finals (round of 4) – Saturday, 26 April Finals -- Sunday, 27 April

Format: 2 best-ball scratch matches at each club (8 players total from each club; 4 play at home, 4 play on the road). Each match is worth 3 points: 1 for the front, 1 for the back, and 1 for the 18 holes. If a 9 or the 18 is tied, each team receives ½ point. There is a total of 12 points. In the event of a tie, there is a sudden death playoff at the home club (the home club is identified before the match). We want to field the best players for each match. We also want to offer opportunities for interested players to showcase their talent. We will reserve 3 tee times, about 12:30-1:00 PM, at Fairfax on 22, 23, 29, and 30 March. The intent is to have fun, build camaraderie, and give everyone the chance to display their game. You can play all four times, or fewer, but we do expect everyone interested to play at least once (unless there are circumstances preventing you from playing). We also want to acknowledge the leadership and dedication of Lynn Wessman. Lynn has been the spirit of ANCC Senior Golf for many years. He will continue to support the competition as he co-leads the NOVA Golf Association. Thanks for a job well done!
