 Happy New Year all!

The schedule for Winter season is now posted. Play starts this coming Tuesday (17th January).

Let us know if you are interested in playing on a team - we have some teams looking to bolster their rosters. This season we do not have a makeup week built into the schedule but we will be extending the 3-player splash scenario in this coming season to help prevent forfeits and postponements. Drive safe, stay safe, have fun and throw some straight arrows out there!

All the best. Game On!!!
