Eligibility
We welcome all prospective members to our club. For your enjoyment and that of your playing partners, we highly suggest that you have a basic knowledge of the Rules of Golf and that you have played at least a few rounds on the Balboa Park 18 hole course before joining the 18-hole Balboa Park Women's Golf Club. While we do not have a handicap limit for members, we recommend that you have demonstrated an ability to score no higher than 135 on the course. This is necessary to maintain the pace of play that the City requires (maximum 4 hour 30 minute round). If you cannot yet score in this range, please consider joining the 9-hole group that plays on Fridays, or the Mission Bay Women's Golf Club, which plays on the 18 hole par 3 course on Wednesdays.
Members must have an established Handicap Index to be eligible for Sweeps prizes. If you do not already have a GHIN handicap, we will help you to establish one. Once you have posted have posted a total of 54 holes, you'll have a Handicap Index, per the World Handicap System, and be eligible to compete in club Sweeps. The annual President's Cup and Club Championships also have a required number of rounds played in the same calendar year with the club.
