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 Northwood Hills

Northwood Hills hosted a great group of thirty-five ladies at the SWGA playday event today, August 18.  The weather cooperated with a nice breeze all day.  The hospitality and wonderful food treats were as wonderful as usual.  Good job, ladies.

In addition to great weather, there was some great scoring today.  The low gross of the day was a 76 by Mary Lynn Stuart (ERCC), followed by a really nice score of 79 for Vicki Cella (NHGC) who also landed the low net of the day with a 63 AND overall low putts with only 25.  Second low net of the day went to Donna Cobb (FRLGA) with a nice 66.  And I must mention here that Grace Ireland (NHGC) made an Eagle, on a par four sinking the ball from about 100 yards out!  Go get ‘em Grace!
