Our chapter is a diverse group of women, all with one common thread - golf. And within that thread, we include all types of golfers from beginners to single digit handicappers. That's a big task to meet all those needs, but I think we are doing exactly that. Check out the rest of this website and you will find programs and events for beginning golfers, events for competitive golfers, and then some purely social gatherings. You will find something that suits your game and where you want it to go. Guess what? Once you start participating, you will find an extra benefit with the Fort Worth chapter - friendship. Sometimes friendships are made when you least expect it. That happens all the time in this chapter. So don't delay anymore. Come on down and join in the fun of being a member of the Fort Worth EWGA. Mary Ann Lutz, President We need to remember the generosity of our sponsors whose sponsorship helps keep our Ft. Worth EWGA Chapter going. Our biggest sponsor this year is USMD Hospitals (Fort Worth and Arlington).
NEWS Fort Worth EWGA has a new Club Champion! Susan Van Riper shot an 86 in Chapter Championship to claim the overall championship for our chapter. The weather wasn't as hot as it could have been, but the wind was just about as problematic when our Chapter Championship was held Saturday, June 12, at Champion's Circle. Terri Baze did a wonderful job (as usual) in having everything set up and running smoothly. The results are: Championship Flight: Paweena Bennet - low gross; Julie Piland - low net First Flight: Susan Van Riper - low gross; Janet Case - low net Second Flight: Debra Machos - low gross; Marilyn Weiss - low net Third Flight: Bren Clevenger-Ori - low gross: Mary Ann Beldeszek - low net Fourth Flight: Cheryl McCally - low gross Scramble Team Winners: Tara Dubose, Cindy Campbell, Ann Wright, Marjorie Stanfield Congratulations to all the winners, who will advance to the EWGA semi-finals July 24 at Bridlewood. Pictures will be posted soon, so check back! Our next chapter event is our "Family Golf Month" member/guest event at Iron Horse on July 10. Bring a family member, partner, or friend.

SLOW PLAY! Unacceptable! We do not want to be categorized as "those slow women". No one likes to feel rushed, but as we play at private clubs and move on into Chapter Championship, we have to be mindful of our pace. If we have an opportunity to play at a private club, and their members are slowed down by us, you can bet we won't be invited back. In many competitions, penalty strokes are actually assessed after slow play warnings. Form good habits, and this won't be a factor. Click on the Education tab above for some tips on keeping a good pace.
