  Registration is $40 per person per event, plus a $35 cart fee for each event. Entrants are accepted on a first-come, first-serve basis. Field size for each event is determined by the host facility.

  â€śWe will be visiting some familiar sites this fall. When you combine that with the relaxed atmosphere of the competition, I think everyone who participates will have a wonderful experience,” Chris Roselle, the Association’s Tournament Director, said.

  The Winter Series also features a Players of the Year competition determined by a points system. Categories include Amateur Gross, Amateur Net, Senior Gross and Senior Net. Venues for the spring portion will be announced in early 2018.

  The Winter Series, started in 2008, offers players of any skill level an opportunity to compete in tournament golf during the normally quiet, off-season months. Events are open to all GAP Members, 18 years of age and older, Philadelphia Section of PGA Members and golf professionals at Member Clubs.
