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.

SSWGA Playday at Southern Trace

We looked at a bleak weather forecast for the day, but lucked out and had only about 3 or 4 raindrops on Tuesday, June 19th while hosted by the ladies of Southern Trace.  Twenty-six ladies gambled on the rain holding off, and they won!!  The course was beautiful, as usual, and the staff made us feel more than welcome.
The overall low gross score of the day was a really nice 82 by Moise Allen (STCC) who also had the overall low putts of the day with only 27!  Good playing Moise.  The overall low net for the day was Super Senior Pat Rice (NHGC) was a low of 67 AND only 30 putts!
Because there were 13 players in the regular division, we had two flights, while we had only one flight of super seniors.  Results are as follows:
FIRST FLIGHT - Regular Division
Low Gross:  Moise Allen (STCC) 82
Low Net: Cathy Buckley (BWGA) 69
Low Putts: Joyce Delauder (BWGA) 34

SECOND FLIGHT - Regular Division
Low Gross (tie): Linda Colvin (NHGC) & Myra Corby (ERCC) 97
Low Net: Jan Lea (NHGC) 73
Low Putts (tie): Daneita Adams (BWGA) & Kathy Davis (NHGC) 36

SUPER SENIORS
Low Gross: Pat Rice (NHGC) 96
Low Net: Alyce Wyche (NHGC) 69
Low Putts: Marge Snyder (NHGC) 33

Chip-ins:  Daneita Adams & Pat Rice

SWGA Playday at Huntington Park (BWGA)

Wow!  Hot was the word of the day for the twenty-eight ladies who came out to play the SSWGA Playday at Huntington Park.  I'm sure that for those of you who haven't played the course since it was re-done, it was a big surprise.  It's waaaay shorter than it used to be.  And the greens are very very receptive.

Mary Lynn Stuart (ERCC) must have really liked it, as she shot a super 75!!!  The next closest gross score was 83 by Cathy Buckley (BWGA).  The low net for the day was 65 by Hui Bordelon (FRLGA) followed by a 66 by Jane Smith (WGAS).  Putts ranged from 30 to 39.  There was a tie for low putts of 30 between Suzanne Patton (NHGC) and Jane Smith (WGAS).  Congratulations ladies!!!
