About The Fort Worth Metroplex Chapter

EWGA Fort Worth/Metroplex Chapter has approximately 70 members who live and work in Fort Worth, Arlington, Mid-Cities, and surrounding communities. Our all-volunteer board works hard to ensure we are providing our members with a great golfing experience through the leagues, events, and education opportunities offered. Whether you're a new golfer looking for a welcoming environment to properly learn the game, or an experienced golfer seeking the challenge of competition, we offer events and activities to meet your needs.

Our Chapter organizes a variety of events, clinics, and socials each year, where the focus is always on fun. Activities include new golfer clinics, league play, monthly golf events, chapter championship, networking functions, member-guest events, charity tournaments and, of course, the infamous Lone Star Cup!

With almost half of our members in key management positions, you'll also find an ideal environment for networking with other businesswomen in a friendly atmosphere.

Whether you're looking for an occasional round of informal golf, or a chance to play regularly with other avid golfers, the Executive Women's Golf Association provides those opportunities. We invite you to join us to have fun, network and help support us as we bring a new level of dignity and respect to women's golf.

The April 26th social at Tierra Verde was lots of fun. Everyone enjoyed the Putting contest and each others company at dinner.

VOLUNTEERS / LEADERSHIP

Volunteers are important to the success of the Fort Worth/Metroplex EWGA.

"Volunteering can be an exciting, growing, enjoyable experience. It is truly gratifying to serve a cause, practice one's ideals, work with people, solve problems, see benefits, and know one had a hand in them"...Harriet Naylor

Feeling inspired? Want to get involved, but don't know where to start? Joining a committee or volunteering for an event is a great way to meet members. We're all busy women, but it is very satisfying, and just plain fun, to work with and get to know other women who enjoy this challenging game as much as we do.

Email Paweena Bennett to learn more about how you can get involved and make things happen.                                                                 

Social Events

It's not all about the golf! We also have a handful of social events sprinkled throughout the season. Jeanne Green is busy setting up some fun things to do off the golf course.

HANDICAPS

The purpose of the USGA Handicap System is to make the game of golf more enjoyable by enabling players of differing abilities to compete on an equitable basis.

Having a handicap index allows golfers to participate in more events (those that require a handicap index), have a measurable means of tracking improvement, and allows score adjustments to even the playing field when playing with golfers of different skill levels.

Education

Practice the way you want to play, if you're serious about playing well.

Use your time well and you will enjoy the game much more. Determine what kind of pre-shot routine fits you best and do it while practicing. Work on your mechanics and technique on the range so you don't have to think about it on the course.
