WELCOME!

​ BWGL HISTORY​ / CURRENT STATUS 

​

Our history is still unchanged but our course has been changed....once again.  With the imminent closing of Clapp Golf Course sometime during 2019, we found a "new home" at MacDonald Golf Course.  We enjoyed our short tenure at LW Clapp and also the staff that was always very supportive of us and our venues.  However the city appears to have their minds made up to close Clapp as we know it .... so Big Thanks to Mac for making room for us.  We are all familiar with Mac and I know we will have another great season!!!

​BWGL was organized in 1982 by several working women who loved to play golf. With much due diligence between our organizers and Bert Henderson, Echo Hills became our home course for the next 25 (wonderful) years. When Echo closed we moved to Braeburn and enjoyed several years at Braeburn until WSU closed the course to use it for other educational pursuits.  Then came Clapp, now comes Mac.

We have enjoyed our time at ALL of our "home courses" and have made many new friendships at each of them. And, as we  move on, BWGL will continue to provide fun recreational golfing events and do hope that others will want to join this 'nomadic' group of ladies. Our sites may have changed but our love of golf and all related activities persist. Each of our "course changes" only strengthens us!

LEAGUE  PLAY

League play is from April through October. We can play 9-holes on Tuesday evenings or 9-holes on Tuesday mornings. We also have an 18-hole "club" tournament at various courses in the area once a month. 

In addition to that, we have two weekend golf trips every season! And we sponsor a Club Championship Tournament every year and sometimes even a  Member-Guest Tournament. 

OTHER  ORGANIZATIONAL  ACTIVITIES

​

 KCGA, KGA and KWGA have merged together to form Central Links Golf. The Home Base is located in Lenexa, Ks. This organization gives us many opportunities to meet and play golf with ladies from all over the state of Kansas and the Kansas City area. This includes  Championship Tournaments,  Special Events as well as many, many invitationals in Kansas and the Kansas City area.  ​
