MEMBERS – In this, the first email of 2025 the 2025 Major Tournament Schedule, the Match Play Club Championship, the first major tournament entry form, and the status of the Free Farmer’s Open tickets will be displayed. 

But FIRST  –  CONGRATULATIONS to Mark Beveridge for his Hole In One on Tuesday, 07 Jan, on #16 South during the Weekly Blitz.  Mark wins $200 and a HIO Trophy.  Great Shot, Mark.

Second – The 2025 Board of Governors has elected the Officers and Committee Chairman.   

Third – This year the eligibility to play in the 2025 Club Championship is modified to require that ALL entrants MUST have played in AT LEAST FIVE Admiral Baker Men’s Club ( ABMC) Events prior to the Club Championship, which is June 10 and 11,  The ABMC events are:  The Weekly Tuesday Blitz; any Major Tournament; playing in a Military Golf League Match as a member of the Admiral Baker Golf team; or entering the Match Play Club Championship Bracket.  Members who have not played in at least 5 of those events will not be eligible to compete in the Club Championship.

Between now and June 10th there will be THIRTY ONE opportunities to play in an Admiral Baker Men’s Club golf event, so requiring playing in just 5 of them is definitely not too much to ask.

Fourth – The First major tournament  of the year is the  Tuesday 25 February Member and Associate Member Scramble.  This is the one tournament a year where we invite the Associate Members to play along with us.  Often, many of the Associate Members who play upgrade to Regular Membership after they see the quality ( and cash prizes) of our major tournaments.  An ABMC Match Play Form is attached.  Please note the deadline.  This tournament fills up fast, especially since we have opened it up to the 500 Associate Members.

Fifth – The Match Play Club Championship will start up in April.  An entry form and the Rules are attached, and will be posted on the Men’s Club Bulletin Board in the Locker Room.

Sixth – The Farmer’s Open is coming up and those of you who have applied for the FREE tickets will receive them in your email soon.   

Finally – This will be another great year for golf at Admiral Baker Golf Course and the Men’s Club is committed to keep the events “Fun, Fair, and Fast.”   

See you on the course
