Berkeley Senior Men's Golf Association
BSMGA Senior Weekday Tournaments for 2022:
The BSMGA, and the Club Professional Staff have agreed upon a number of Senior Tournaments (listed below)
usually played during the week to which all seniors are invited. Senior Tournaments include white and gold tees players. This list does not include all regular scheduled Berkeley tournaments which have a “Masters Division” for those seniors who prefer to play from the regular (white) tees.
The vast majority of Country Club members are over the age of 50 and Berkeley is no exception. A good chunk
of them are still working, but a significant proportion of them are retired. Stepping forward to the white tees or even further to the gold tees gives seniors an opportunity to challenge the course when the length of the course is
reduced to manageable levels. Competing on a course more manageable has brought more fun back into these competitions. Berkeley has further made a decision to conform to USGA rules allowing competitors to play from the tees established for their handicap in the same tournament. This means players whose handicaps are established from the white or gold tees may compete with players from the blue or player tees.
