INTRODUCTION

This page is to introduce you to the various officers and chairmen and their functions for the year 2007.  We welcome any input you might have to improve our services to the members and the golfing community.  Contact any of the board members listed above.

 

Tournament Chairman—George Robbins

George develops the Association’s tournament schedule and rules for the calendar year.  He may cancel or reschedule tournaments during the year because of weather or other unusual circumstances.  If you have any questions concerning the tournaments, please contact George.

 

Handicap Chairman--L. E. Clarke

Handicaps are calculated every two months from scores recorded in ASGA tournament play only.  Scores must be totaled and attested by your signature.  When four scores are on the same score card, your initials are required below your score.  If your score is incomplete, not totaled, or not attested, you may be given a par score for use in computing your handicap.  If you have any questions concerning your handicap, please contact L. E.

 

PARD Advisory Board Representative--Travis Eckert

Travis is our representative to the Austin Parks and Recreation Golf Advisory Board.  He works toward the promotion of the ASGA interests as it relates to the City of Austin, City Council, and other public bodies.  He is our publicity person.

 

Bar-B-Que Chairman--Jim Shipwash

In 2007, our annual Bar-B-Que will be held on October 17 at the Jimmy Clay Pavilion.  It has been suggested that we have dessert for this event.  If a member or member’s spouse would like to furnish a dessert, please contact a board member.

 

Special Events Chairman—Dave Ward

One of the objectives of the Association is to assist in furtherance of the interest of golf in the Austin area.  Each year we are asked to assist in the UT men’s and women’s intercollegiate tournaments and the boys’ and girls’ state high school tournament by being ball spotters and doing other activities as assigned.  If you would like to be of assistance in any of these tournaments, please contact Dave.
