About the BGA

Jump to FAQ

In 2018, we started as a small group of 8 players looking to play some weekend golf with a competitive twist. Little did we know, there were others out there just like us.

 

So we set a mission to create something unique, an experience to look forward to, and a community to feel a part of. 

​

Today, we continue on our journey to create the largest community of amateur golfers in Canada. 

 

We'll see you on the first tee!

Net Stableford Scoring

This is based on a player’s net score (after strokes are applied), per hole. Points are allocated as below:

 

0 points: 2+ strokes over par

1 point: 1 stroke over par

2 points: par

3 points: 1 stroke under

4 points: 2 strokes under

5 points: 3 strokes under

Rain or Shine

Our events will never be cancelled due to weather conditions. We play, rain or shine. In case of a delay or lightning, we will monitor the weather and keep you updated through a group text. If we have to cancel the remaining holes, the course will issue rain cheques for the remaining holes to be played. If you choose to leave, you will be marked DNF.

Individual Stroke Play

All events are “Individual Stroke Play” at 90% of your handicap index.  Season-long and weekly games will be flighted (Champ, A, B, C & D flights)

We have selected 6 rounds as NGL qualifying rounds. Your best 4 out of 6 rounds are used. The BGA will qualify 5+ winners to participate in regional final at a course in Ontario in September. You will also be able to bring guest as a teammate. If you qualify to the national final, you will play before the 2025 RBC Canadian Open, the grandstands will be setup in tour like conditions!
