Hilton Head Island Amateur Golf Association
Connecting amateur golfers in the Hilton Head Island Area.
The HHIAGA was founded in 1983 to give amateur male golfers in the Hilton Head area the opportunity to meet fellow golfers, compete in tournaments and play some of the area's best courses. Our membership now numbers about 350 and is open to Beaufort County full-time residents and property owners, ages 18 and older. We offer senior divisions and all tournaments are flighted and handicapped so that all can compete within their skill level.
The association has added a pro-am this year in conjunction with the HHIPGA to be held at Oldfield Golf Club, October 29 and entry fee will include filet, all the trimmings and free beer following play. Should be a great event and tremendous opportunity for all to meet fellow golfers. I plan to have a couple of one day events at some of our finer private courses this year and will get that information posted asap so you can make your arrangements - they will probably be held on a Monday. As usual we will be assisting the HHIPGA with the annual Hilton Head Open.
Steve Henry will no longer be assisting with the associations events as there is a family matter that will take an enormus amount of his time. However, he still will be the contact for those of you utilizing our handicap program (he is certified through Golfnet). I want to thank Steve for the hundreds of hours of hard work and dedication to our association - we would not be where we are today if Steve hadn't come on board!
I would like to introduce the HHIAGA staff: Bob Collar - Director, Steve Henry - Handicap services, Richard Kerr - Legal Counsel, Happ Lathrop and Biff Lathrop (SCGA) - Policy, Regulations and Amateur Status, Scott Stilwell - USGA Rules and Officiating, John Farrell (Harbour Town Golf Links) - Local representative for Policy, Regulations and Amateur Status and Tony Calhoun - Administrative and Web page.
Looking forward to 2012 with a lot of fun and good golf. Good luck to all!
Fellow Golfer,
Bob
