Inclement Weather Policy:
Call the golf course after 3:30 p.m. (for 9-hole leagues) to inquire whether league play will occur on that day. Course phone numbers are listed on the League Policies page. For 18-hole leagues, speak with your coordinator to see how they want to handle it. Generally, all league cancellations are rescheduled after the regular league season ends. All players must read and abide by the League Policies.
We are pleased to offer current NNJ chapter members the opportunity to register for 2010 EWGA-NNJ league play. You must be a member in good standing for 2010 to participate in our leagues so please renew before your current membership expiration date. All of our courses and times are confirmed.
Registration requires full payment for each 9 hole league requested and a deposit for 18 hole leagues. Final payment for the 18 hole leagues will be required prior to start of play.
Requests are processed on a first come, first reserved basis. Please identify a 1st and 2nd choice, if you have one, for each request. We will do our best to honor your request. Simply completing the form with payment does not guarantee your spot in that league due to golfer limits. You will receive confirmation within 2 weeks of our receipt. If registering online, you will know the status immediately. You will receive a confirmation to your email address after completing the process. NOTE: EWGA-NNJ reserves the right to determine if a player’s ability matches the level of the league selected. Please complete a separate registration form for each league you wish to play in. This allows us to more accurately process all of the information.
Each league has at least one coordinator. The coordinator volunteers her time and receives no compensation at all. Please treat her with respect as it is her job to ensure everyone has a quality golf experience. CHANGES

COSTS
Our league prices for 2010 continue to include a one time $30 administration fee to support league administration expenses.
All fees are for walking only, except as specially noted. Electric carts and pull carts may be rented. Our 9-hole league price is calculated by multiplying the greens fee per night by the number of weeks played plus the $30 fee. For 18-hole leagues, the price is the greens fees for the course plus a cart, if required, and the $30 fee.
2010 SUBSTITUTE PROGRAM
We maintain an online listing of league members and league substitutes. A substitute is expected to reimburse you when they take your place.
Members who can’t play full time in a league are encouraged to sign up as a substitute player for the $30 League Fee. As a full time league player, you are able to list yourself as a substitute player in any league that matches your level of golf.
Please review the descriptions of levels below and register for the appropriate league for your level of play. Subs must be intermediate golfers to play at Sunset Valley and Paramus Monday nights.
