Welcome
2021 BOSGO Tournament Summary
With almost 60 golfers in attendance on a beautiful 70 degree day,the competition was exciting with the top 3 teams posting a -13, -12 and a -10. Individual golfers were recognized by wining their contests for longest drive, and closest to the pin contests. The winning team from 12 Points led by Francesca Federico (and her ringer…!) was a new addition to our group and we hope they stay engaged with us for years to come.During the lunch and recognition ceremony Francesca reinforced the opportunity for more female golfers to attend and encouraged each team to recruit more female golfers to their teams.That message is strongly supported by the BOSGO host committee.
