The Perron C. Jarboe Championship is an annual competition of the New England Senior Golfers’ Association. It is one of the oldest senior championships that has been played continuously since 1932.

The tournament is contested over two 18-hole rounds, one at Winchester Country Club and one at Woodland Golf Club. We are very excited about the new format of alternating courses around the Boston area, while keeping Woodland GC and Brae Burn CC as a host of one of the days. The winner is the low gross score for 36 holes. In the case of a tie, a playoff will be held at Woodland Golf Club.

The Paul J. Carey Championship represents the low net 36 hole score. In the case of a tie, the winner will be determined by a matching of cards subject to USGA rules.

The President’s Trophy is unique to the New England Senior Golfers’ Association. It is awarded to the player over age 70 whose best round is best in relation to his age.

Other prizes will be awarded for low gross and net foursome on each course both days.

Donald Ross described the ideal golf courses as, “one that presents a test of golf for the everyday golfer and the first class player. A properly designed course can take care of every class of golfer. My aim is to bring out of the player the best golf that is in him. It will be difficult to negotiate some holes, but that is what golf is for. It is a mental test and an eye test. The hazards and bunkers are placed so as to force a man to use judgment and to exercise mental control in making the correct shot.” We feel the golf course at Wannamoisett CC fits this template perfectly.

The Clifton C. Larson Memorial Tournament is an individual quota tournament. Scoring will be 6 points for eagle, 4 points for birdie, 2 points for par, 1 point for bogey, 0 points for double bogey and above. A player’s quota is determined by subtracting their handicap from 36. Example: a 15 handicap has a quota of 21. The winner will be the participant with the highest quota point total. A minimum of 4 quota points is necessary to be eligible for prizes.

Ekwanok Country Club- Founded in 1899, and consistently ranked in the 21st century by Golfweek Magazine as having one of the top classic golf courses in America, Ekwanok Country Club enjoys a charmed existence as a challenging golf course set amid the spectacular views of the Green Mountains of Vermont.

Dorset Field Club (Optional Day)- The Dorset Field Club is the oldest continuously operating golf club in America. It all began in 1886 when a group of golfers who sum­mered in Dorset laid out a nine-hole golf course on the site of the present Club. A clubhouse was built in 1896 and named “Woodruff Hall” in honor of one of the founders. Over the next century play increased and the course was lengthened and improved. The course has undergone five substantial alterations and re-routings—it became an 18-hole course in 1999.

Ekwanok Country Club and Dorset Field Club are consistently rated as two of the top golf courses in the state of Vermont.

The NESGA will be offering a discounted block of rooms at The Luxury Equinox Hotel in Manchester for the nights of September 15th and 16th.

The W. Royce Taylor Tournament is a better ball of two net format.

The winning team will be awarded the W. Royce Taylor Bowl. In the event of a tie, the winners will be determined by matching scorecards according to USGA rules. Prizes will also be awarded to the runners-up and the next five places. A low gross and low gross runner-up prize will also be awarded.

Maybe the most popular event on the NESGA schedule year after year! Oyster Harbors Club(1926) and the Wianno Club (1916), both Donald Ross original designs, are both fun and challenging in very different aspects. The Parkland design of Oyster Harbors offer wide open fairways but difficult approach shots to greens that Ross made famous. Tipping out at 6,086 yards "Wianno is the hardest 6,100 yards you will ever play" -stated a NESGA member. It may be difficult but we can guarantee you will enjoy every second of the harbor views and undulating fairways. If you are interested in making the trip down to the Cape for this event you register early! This great event tends to fill up very quick!

The Coakley-Stimets will be a best two balls of the foursome event with net and gross champions. Each team will play one round at each course. Daily prizes will be awarded for low net and low gross team scores. Handicaps will be set at 80% of the player’s index as of the latest handicap revision prior to play.

All USGA rules apply in addition to any local rules of which players will be made aware before the start of play.
