Standing Rules
Wyoming Senior Women's Golf Association
Revised and Approved By The Board on July 13, 2015 unless otherwise noted.
These WSWGA standing rules are general policies that are not specifically included in the WSWGA By-Laws. They can not be in
conflict with any provision or section of the By-Laws. These standing rules can be changed or amended at any time by a majority
vote of the current WSWGA Board.
- The Deadline for payment of annual Membership Dues will be March 15th of each year.
- Membership Dues, Fees and Late Payment Charges will be as follows:
a. $20.00 - Annual Current Membership Dues
b. $10.00 - Current Member Late Payment Fee (if paid after deadline)
c. $30.00 - Reinstatement Member Dues (for former members whose
dues have lapsed one or more years)
d. $30.00 - New Member Dues (first year only)
Note: The Late Payment Fee does not apply to new Members or former Members who are reinstating their membership.
- Membership dues, fees and applicable late payment charges must be paid and received by the Registrar prior to accepting the Annual Tournament entry form.
- The Annual Tournament will be held on the Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday closest to the 15th of July each year.
- The Annual Tournament Entry Forms shall be made available to Members in May of each year
- The Association shall pay the tournament committee three thousand dollars ($3,000) prior to the tournament for early expenses.
- The tournament entry fee shall be $115.00 excluding bag storage fee and the practice round unless the board approves an adjustment.
- The local tournament director and her committee shall be in charge of all social activities during the tournament, as well as awarding prizes to winners
in the form of shop credit.
- Green fees and cart rentals shall be included in the registration entry fee for the two (2) tournament days of play. Green fees and cart rentals for the
practice round shall be the responsibility of the players.
- Each Tournament Director and her Committee shall select a local charity and will conduct a money raising event and/or raffle. At the conclusion of the
tournament, any and all tournament profit shall be donated to the chosen charity.
- The Member's age on the first day of the Annual Tournament will determine their flight.
- For tournament purposes only, and commencing with our 2010 annual tournament, the age groups for the flights shall be:
50-54 Freshman (Note: May include ladies who are 49 but will turn
50 in the calendar year they join.)
55-59 Sophomore
60-64 Junior
65-69 Senior
70-74 Swinging Senior
75+ Super Senior
-
Tournament Site Coordinators: One or two Board members appointed by the full Board will research possible sites for the WSWGA Annual Tournaments.
A letter or phone call should be made to the PGA Professional in cities across Wyoming who might be interested in hosting our group; who ideally would
have a member of their Club who has played in at least one WSWGA tournament and would be willing to be the Tournament Director; and whose Club has a
group of women golfers who could form a tournament committee. Additional requirements would be a Wyoming city that has adequate hotel accommodations,
facilities for meals and carts available for 80-100 participants. If there is an interest, the Club Pro would submit an invitation to the WSWGA,
including the green fees and cart fees for the three day tournament dates. That invitation would then be presented to the full Board of Directors at
their annual meeting.
- The Board shall review these standing rules each year and make appropriate changes pursuant to Section 4.08 of the Association's By-Laws.
