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.

NEXT PLAYDAY EVENTS

SWGA Championship


Who would have thought that we would have such perfect weather for a Championship in the middle of July?!?  It was beautiful and the course was its usual beautiful venue for the SWGA Championship at Southern Trace CC.  Twenty-seven ladies participated in this event….enjoying SOMETHING about it…..the golf, the food, the course, the prizes, the friendships.
But to the nitty-gritty…..Lillian Granger (STCC) led the field after the first day, shooting 84, and thus, winning the Medalist award.  But Mary Lynn Stuart (ERLGA) came on strong on Day 2 causing a tie between the two, resulting in a sudden death playoff.  Mary Lynn shot 86/77 and Lillian shot 84/79.  It took only one sudden death hole to determine the Champion.  This is the TENTH time Mary Lynn has won, starting back in 1976!!!  Congratulations!
 


Brenda Graves (BLGA) shot lights out too, winning Net Medalist honors as well as Net Champion with two day net scores of 70/70.  Overall Low Putts went to Gina O’Neal (for the second year in a row) with a nice 61 putts.  Congratulations ladies!
