What is C.H.A.M.P.S.? (City Hospitality and Match Play Section)
C.H.A.M.P.S. is an inter-club team match play event which is a round-robin
schedule of games between participating clubs for women only. When you
sign up, you have the opportunity to play different courses across the city
and surrounding area as well as host members from other clubs.
C.H.A.M.P.S. is an opportunity to get to know fellow members, play a FUN
round (18 holes) and then share some laughs over lunch.
How Does It Work?
If you can golf one home and one away game between May 16th and August
22nd, you can sign up for C.H.A.M.P.S. You will be paired with another
member from River Spirit and two ladies from the visiting team or host
team, all with similar handicaps. Almost all games are played on Monday
mornings. (Groupings are based on handicaps with two levels of players: A
Players - index of 0 – 22.1 and B Players -index of 22.2 – 35.2. Remember:
The overall goal is to have FUN.
We welcome players of all levels and abilities and look forward to
welcoming new players. If you didn’t play in C.H.A.M.P.S. last year, please
send me an email and I’ll get you signed up. Alternatively, if you played
last year and are unable to play this year, please let me know and I’ll take
you off the list.

What’s the Cost?
There is absolutely no cost to ‘join’ C.H.A.M.P.S. and no cost to play a
round at another club (there may be a cost for pull/power carts at the host
course). If you are a female member of River Spirit with a handicap, you
are eligible. If you’re signing up for the first time, I’ll need your full name,
home/cell numbers and email address. Once I get that, you’re a member of
C.H.A.M.P.S. 2016! The only thing left to do is to review the schedule and
let me know which dates you are able to play. I’ll send the full summer
schedule out once I know who’s playing so you can get the dates in your
calendar.
$15.00 will be collected by the assigned Team Captain each time you play a
C.H.A.M.P.S. round to cover the cost of the lunch. The lunch fee includes
the cost of your meal, beverage, GST and tip.
