Hello Summer Teams Golfers,

With only three weeks left of the regular competition, the ladder is looking very interesting, especially in the middle of the field. A few good scores could rocket teams a number of positions up the ladder placing them well for when the competition splits into two divisions for the finals. Encourage all your team members to get out there in the latter part of the competition – a few scores of 40 for your team could be very costly.
