Short answer to your question – No!
Metro Plus and Special Events are benefits of being a regular, active member of Metro Seniors. Participation these extra tournaments are reserved for active Metro Seniors members. We require all Metro Plus participants to play regularly in Metro Seniors every season.
We play ten times more golf in Metro Seniors than in either of Special Events or Metro Plus. Metro Seniors is our foundation for Fun and Fellowship through Golf.
Special Events and Metro Plus would not exist without the membership and structure of our Metro Seniors organization, numbers of active golfers, and strong volunteer leadership.
Please join a Metro Seniors division. Enjoy friendly golf competition, make new friends. Expand that fun by participating in Special Events. Join Metro Plus to extend your fun to more challenging courses.
I am interested in your organization but it seems that I am a bit late to sign up except for 9 hole league or other division – Friday play. I don’t know what those are but would like to know more to get registered for this season. Please give me a little more information – I am not a competitive golfer but want a little more competition that a couple buddies that play once in a while.
Howard,
We do have an opening in our Thursday Division 4.
