Join the Sharp Park Business Women's Golf Club!
We are a diverse organization of recreational players in the San Francisco Bay Area (handicaps generally ranging from 10 to 36) who gather for golf on Sunday mornings at Sharp Park in Pacifica, California. Our regular tee-time is on Sunday at
9 a.m. PST, and members and their guests are required to sign in by 8:30 a.m. at the table inside the Sharp Park clubhouse. Some weeks, we start late due to other course events. Start times for each week can be found in the Schedule tab.
Green fees are $38 to walk. The weekly game is another $2 + 25 cents to enter the chip-in pool.
Every month, we have at least one Special or Fun tournament (usually with a theme or fun game) and one Low-Net tournament. Our two majors are the Match Play Championship in June and the Club Championship in October. If you'd like to try us out one Sunday, contact us and we'll fit you in.
We were also listed as one of the country's happiest golf courses in 2015!

Reminder: Post Your Scores!
Our by-laws currently require members to post three play-day scores within the 12 months leading up to any tournament. (Match Play and Club Championships do not count toward the three.) So stay current for the money events by playing regularly, and keep track of your eligibility in case anyone asks. IT IS UP TO THE MEMBER TO SELF-MONITOR THIS. |
Guests are (almost) always welcomeGuests are allowed to join us on our Sunday play days except for Special tournaments. On days highlighted in peach on the schedule, guests with GHIN handicaps may join us in our regular game and be paired wherever desk hostesses choose (maximum per guest: 3 times a year). Otherwise, guests are always allowed to play at the back of the pack, space allowing.
About that schedule...
Please check the schedule for hostessing gaps and sign up with Jippy.
Co-hostessing is a great way to meet members and learn about the games. How's your pace of play?
Here are three tips to put in play on regular Sunday play days.
1. Exchange scorecards at the first tee so that each player is officially keeping only ONE score plus her own. If you have a foursome, just swap with one other player, who will keep your score while you keep hers. (Of course you should also write down your own scores.) 2. Be ready to putt when it is your turn. Study your line when you arrive to the green and mark your ball, or while others are putting. When it's your turn, you should not have to walk all about the green. 3. If you are in a foursome, encourage two players to putt and go to the next tee while the remaining two players putt and replace the flagstick. The early arrivals can tee off while the other two are finishing. If each of these strategies saves your foursome one minute per hole, you have just shaved 54 MINUTES off your pace of play. All the more time to enjoy the 19th hole! Always remember, keep pace with the group in front of you. |

Rule 5.6 will encourage prompt pace of play by recommending that:
In addition, new Rule 6.4 will expressly allow playing out of turn in match play by agreement, and for stroke play, will affirmatively allow and encourage players to play out of turn in a safe and responsible way to save time or for convenience (also known as “ready golf”).
