Team Play

Papago WGA now competes in two Team Play Leagues: Valley and East Valley. For more information, contact Valley Team Captain Pier Flemming or

East Valley Team Captain Sally Chambliss. Sign-ups for each team event will be via email from Captains.

 

Valley Team holds 9 matches during the season, where 8 teams of 10 players each compete in four-ball matches.

Valley Team Repeats as 2022-23 Combined Gross & Net Champions! See Final Results below.
