Atlantic City To Host WGRA Tour Championship Series

There will be a two day, three round tournament scheduled for October 12th and 13th in Atlantic City.
On Saturday we will play two mini-events. The first round will be a team handicap event and the second round will be a stableford event (points for birdie/par/bogie etc.) There will be trophies awarded for both of these rounds.
In addition to the mini-events, total strokes for both rounds will be kept for each player as qualifying for the Championship Flight on Sunday.

Top 4 will play in the final pairing for a WGRA Tour Championship Trophy and the second 4 will play in the Consolation Round for another trophy.
