GHIN

Five Island Golf uses the Golf Handicap and Information Network® (GHIN). The GHIN Handicap Program software provides for scores to be electronically routed from any club within the GHIN network. The system manages your scores and handicaps.

All new league members must have five rounds of golf scores entered into the GHIN system before league begins.

 

Smith Scholarship Golf Program

The Smith Foundation provides a program that allows all youth from the Emmetsburg School District to golf for free during the month of June. (Always check to make sure the course isn’t closed for a tournament or other event.) In addition, there is a Mentoring Program held from 8-10 a.m. on Monday mornings in June. Volunteers from all over the county come in and teach kids how to play golf, golf rules, and golf etiquette, plus give other tips and pointers.
