League Levels & Formats

Beginner, Advanced Beginner, General, Intermediate and Advanced leagues are available.

While the majority of our weekly leagues play at one course throughout the season, multi-play leagues provide play at two or three golf courses during the season. Play several weeks at one course, then switch to the other course(s), to add some variety to the league.

For those who like to play 18 holes at a variety of courses without a weekly commitment, consider our Travel Leagues. These leagues play during the week and on weekends - simply choose the days you want to play, register, show up, and have fun!

Learn to Play.

We provide a friendly and fun way to learn how to play golf - from what equipment you will need to get on the course to lessons with LPGA and/or PGA golf professionals to playing 9 holes of golf! Learn more about our Beginner Golf Program.

Learn to Play Better.

For the golfer who has taken lessons and has been on a coursebut feels that they want to learn "more," WGANJ offers the Advanced Beginner Program for you!

Take your game to the next level, playing a more focused round of golf with others who are generally concentrated on the game and reserving social interactions for after the round. Players in these leagues welcome the opportunity to play with different foursomes weekly and enjoy engaging in on-course contests.

The only competitive league offered by WGANJ allows members to use their handicap to level the playing field in a variety of net scoring formats, including Match Play, Stableford, Low Net Better Ball. Players in this league set the pace and move around the course in under 4 1/2 hours.

General leagues have different formats of play. Some leagues are more serious and others focus on the social aspect of golf and having fun on the course, while respecting pace of play. On each general league's information page, we have included a description to help you select the league that is right for you.
