Mission
Desert Hills Women’s Golf Association (DHWGA) is dedicated to promote, organize and conduct competitive golfing events for our members at Desert Hills Golf Course. Ladies Day is every Tuesday morning. New members are welcome to join us for a fun day of golf and meet new friends.
Organization
We are chartered by the Arizona Women’s Golf Association and currently have 40 members. We are a non-profit club governed by By-Laws exercised through a Board of Directors elected annually by the membership.
Activities
DHWGA has weekly scheduled play days, which includes Ace of the Year, Club Championship and President’s Cup. Our active season is from November through March, but we are chartered as a 12 month a year Association.
Golf Handicap System
Our Club supports all golfers at Desert Hills by providing the means to access and maintain each golfer’s handicap through our KIOSK, located in the golf shop, which is linked to both the AWGA and the Golf Handicap Information System (GHIN). This system now enables members of other clubs throughout most of the United States to access and update their handicap records provided their home club maintains their handicap through GHIN. Should you have difficulty signing up our Handicap Chairman, Connie Chapman, 928-210-8987, e-mail: dcchap@roadrunner.com
or Tournament Chair, Wendy Cyrenne, 928-305-1456, e-mail: wcyrenne@shaw.ca will be happy to assist you.
