Women’s Try – Your Tee time is the time you should be on the first tee, hitting your ball. Given this, we suggest you arrive 20 – 30 minutes prior to your tee time to give yourself enough time to check in, change, use the washroom, get a snack, meet your group, etc.

Learn Days – Your starting station is when your first rotation will promptly start. Given this you should aim to arrive 20 – 30 minutes before the first station start time.

No – the learn day does not include golfing on the course, rather you will learn at three stations about techniques and skills you can apply to your golf game. Stations include Full Swing, Chipping, and Putting!

Refunds are processed within a week of cancelling your registration, due to weather or low participation numbers. Once processed, your refund can take up to 10 business days to show on your end. Please ensure you are checking the correct account. We appreciate your patience and cooperativeness during this process.
