About Us....

The Shreveport Womens Golf Association was formed in 1933 for the purpose of promoting good fellowship and friendly competition among local amateur women golfers. Ladies in this association (SWGA) must have a handicap index of 30.0 or less.

Our sister group, the Shreveport Senior Womens Golf Association, was created for the same purpose, but includes only ladies who have reached at least their fiftieth birthday.
Ladies can be members of either or both organizations as long as they meet the eligibility requirements and pay the appropriate membership dues to each group. This membership entitles ladies to play at least once (in each association) at each of the six golf/country clubs that are participants in the SWGA and SSWGA groups: Bomber Bayou Golf Club, East Ridge Country Club, Huntington Park/Querbes Golf Clubs, Northwood Hills Golf Club, Golf Club at Stonebride, and Southern Trace Country Club.

SWGA Playday at Stonebridge

The Golf Club at Stonebridge hosted this month's SWGA playday on August 13th, with forty ladies participating.  The course was in great shape and the weather cooperated with a really nice breeze all day.  Thanks to Club Rep Becky Hollier for coordinating the event and for the nice breakfast that was provided.

I think that probably the most heard word on the greens today was "STOP"!  Yep, they were fast and that was evidenced by the putting scores.  The overall low for the day was 31 by Phyllis Ryan (ERCC).  The AVERAGE putting score was 36, with a high of 40.  Did I say they were FAST??

The overall low gross for the entire field was 83 by Donna Cobb (BWGA) and overall low net was a 66 by Martha Lawhorne (BWGA).
