Welcome 2023 Muirfield Club member:

Welcome to a new Muirfield Club season!!!  

 

 

  1. GHIN Handicap:   Your GHIN handicap fee will be included in the Muirfield Club application fee this year.  $160 for members $190 for non-Newcastle dues paying members.  ***NOTE:  we will be adopting the World Handicap System for all events for 2020 forward.  More information can be found here:  https://wagolf.org/keep-score/handicap-information/whs/

 

  1. Muirfield Club After-Golf Space:   We will have a reserved space for Muirfield Club on Thursday nights this season again.  (exact room and space is subject to change based on occupancy needs).  We will also be featuring a buffet style meal.  We will rotate through a specially prepared selection of meals each Thursday. This ensures everyone will have a place to sit and guarantee your meal will be hot and ready when you come off the golf course!  
     
  2. Special Events:  We will again feature a couples night.  Find your partner for these fun 2 person Shamble formats, we will again have mixed couple and all male divisions but encourage you all to bring out your golfing significant other and show them how much fun Thursday nights are at Newcastle!  You will also see 2 Par 3 tournaments to start and finish the season as well as Wine and Whiskey tasting nights!
     
  3. Muirfield Cup Matches:  The Muirfield Cup points and matches will be back for 2023.  The top 20 Muirfield Cup point earners will be invited to play in the Muirfield Cup Matches in late September.  Remember, you accumulate points simply by participating (bonus points are also awarded for cashing or winning in events).

 

Changes in 2022 that we will continue for the 2023 season:

 

  1. Thursday Night Competitions will now be 18 holes
  2. Muirfield Cup Points will be won based on NET SCORES ONLY (check your welcome packet for point breakdown)
  3. We are excited to add a season long Eclectic Competition paying gross and net winners on both courses.
  4. "Adopt a Hole":  Members will "own" a hole based on last name and help repair extra ball marks and fill divots on their hole!

 

 

We look forward to seeing you on a regular basis, the Thursday Night Kickoff is fast approaching (April 6th), please fill out the application and send it back ASAP, we look forward to seeing you all soon!!
