Important Notes for 2024

Men’s League registration will be completed online ONLY.

All players must purchase their GHIN online due to changes with Kansas Golf Association (Central Links). This is due to the fact that your GHIN Handicap will be valid 1 year from the day you sign up. So everyone could have a different expiration date. This will also allow you to setup a renewal reminder along with an auto renew so you will never be without your handicap. lakeshawneegolf.com/handicap-sign-up/ (under Golf Course tab ~ Handicap sign-up)

Premium Season Long Tee Time Rules

The tee time is valid for up to 5 golfers.
The group who wins the tee time will be responsible for calling and canceling the tee time when the tee time is not being used. If 2 or more no-shows occur during the season without a 24-hour cancellation notice, the group may lose the remaining reserved Men's League tee times for the season.
The group who wins the tee time will be responsible for calling and adjusting the tee time size if the group is smaller than the reserved tee time. If tee time constantly shows up with fewer golfers than reserved, the group may lose the remaining reserved Men's League tee times for the season or the golf course may adjust the reserved tee time size for the remainder of the season.
The golf course reserves the right to add golfers to your tee time when space is available.
The money raised from the online auction will be added to the Men's League Championship payouts.

For groups that missed the Men's League tee time auction and/or didn't win the tee time they bid on, will still have the option to purchase a premium reserved tee time if available for the remainder of the Men's League season.
