Thursday Night Teacher's League
A summer league for educators and school staff — same format, a little more relaxed.
About the league
Our thank-you to the teachers, aides, drivers, and staff who get the summer off and deserve to spend a little of it on the course. Same two-man net match play as Wednesday, a touch more casual, and priced for a teacher’s budget.
Open to anyone who works in education — any school, any district. A school ID or school email at signup is all it takes.
Ten weeks of Thursday-night match play starting in early July. The regular season wraps up before school starts back on September 8 — only the two playoff nights fall after, both in the evening.
League fee is $50 — waived for everyone this season for our late-season start — and each week is $32: nine holes, a cart, and a hot dog, chips, and a drink after the round.
Educator or school-staff verification at signup (school ID or school email).
Format & rules
Educators & school staff
Any school or district. Verify with a school ID or school email when you register.
9-hole net match play
Two-person teams, alternating nines, 5:30 shotgun (5:00 for the playoffs). The same engine as the Wednesday league.
Rolling handicap
Built from your last three to five nines and updated weekly, so every match is a fair fight.
Top-8 playoff
Ten regular weeks, then a two-week cumulative-points playoff for the top eight teams.
Net = gross − rolling handicap · Weekly points = holes won (max 9) + 3 for the match win (1.5 each if halved) · Standings = cumulative points · Playoffs = top 8, cumulative over two weeks
Rolling handicap from your last 3–5 nine-hole nets, updated weekly. No GHIN required.

Thursdays all summer, alternating nines, then a top-eight playoff. Rain makeups shift into the buffer date held at the end of the season.
