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 Querbes

Forty ladies got the opportunity to see our new clubhouse under construction at Querbes on Thursday, August 22.  Was it hot?  You bet!  But everyone finished and there were some great scores posted.  The course was in great shape for us and we are thankful to Pro Pete Lockwood and his staff for making it a pleasing experience in spite of the lack of a clubhouse.

The overall low gross for the day was a whopping 79 shot by Events Chairperson Suzanne Tinsley (WGAS).  And her overall low putts of 28 helped her achieve that low score!  Following closely behind Suzanne was Teri McGuire (WGAS) and Shirley Pettitt (BWGA), both with a really nice 83.  Other than those already mentioned for low gross, the overall low net score was 69, shared by Hui Bordelon (FRLGA) and Linda Colvin (PCC).

Also, for those of you in the SSWGA, in just two weeks on September 5, Querbes will be hosting the playday for that group also, so notify your club rep if you plan to play.
