Golf Education

Typically the EWGA Seattle Chapter offers various clinics and lessons for the new and experienced golfer each year. Examples of past activities include a handicap overview, short game clinics, and golf fitness classes.

Rules of Golf Seminar

Golf is more fun when you play by the rules. I think we all will agree that understanding the Rules of Golf is not an easy task. But, you do know that golfers are expected to know and abide by them. And, if you plan to record your score for an official handicap you need to know them. Please join us on Tuesday, June 29, from 6-8 pm at Heron Links Golf Course in Redmond for a “Rules of Golf” seminar hosted by Mark Bass. Mark is the Director of Instruction and Founder of the Mark Bass Golf School associated with Willows Run Golf Club, and a member of the PGA. The first hour of this fun filled event will be learning the rules of golf followed by an hour of socializing.

Cost is $20.00 and the registration deadline is Monday, June 21. Register online today.
