Similar to last year, I am running a fun, members only, Club Championship stroke match play event at the Mattawa Golf and Ski Resort starting 7 July. In addition to the members only event, I am running an Open Match Play Tournament for non-members. I have tried to organize the event to start one month earlier and I am looking forward to seeing how the play unfolds. I have a few lessons learned from last year and I hope this year’s events will run as smooth as last year. The following details will clarify exactly what is happening.

Running A Match Play Event At The Mattawa Golf and Ski Resort
As in years past, I am running a fun, members only, stroke match play event at the Mattawa Golf and Ski Resort starting 9 August. This year’s event is free and the prize is bragging rights.

It is that time again for the Osprey Links Stroke and Net Match Play Championships to start. This is the second time I volunteered to run these events on behalf of Osprey Links. I volunteered to be the chairperson of the 2021 Osprey Links Match Play Championships. Like two years past (last year we did not run this event due to COVID), I offered to help lighten the administrative load of the awesome Osprey Links staff by spearheading the member’s only Stroke and Net Match Play events. The winner of each event receives a parking spot adjacent to the clubhouse. In addition to the parking spots, each winner of a match wins a sleeve of balls from the golf course.
