Application information for New Piperettes Members
The annual general membership meeting is held on or before the first Tuesday in March. For the year 2024, it will be held on March 5th in Pipers Restaurant at 9:30 am. Election of Vice President and Secretary will take place this year after the General Meeting. Golf will follow the meeting at TBA tee times.
The league plays on Tuesdays and officially starts up the first week in March and runs until the Christmas Scramble in December. Each week we play a game and you pay $3 to be in the game. This money is collected typically by someone in your foursome. The games, schedules, times, etc., are posted on the Club’s website which is:
Sandpiper Bay Golf | Sunset Beach, NC or www.sandpiperbaygolf.com – you will require a password to access the Member Portal in the upper right hand side.
Most of our information is on the site, local rules, phone book, tournaments, etc.
If you want to sign up to play on Tuesday, you sign up through the website (click on Sign up sheet) and put your name, date, tees and then click Submit. Members should sign up prior to noon on Sundays. The schedule and pairings are sent out to members prior to play on Tuesday.
During winter months, there is no formal schedule or game, you can sign up with a foursome, twosome or single or you will be paired on a first to sign up basis. During a typical league month, you will be paired randomly using scorekeeper software except for Low Gross/Low Net day when you are paired with women that have similar handicaps. To be eligible to play in the games you need a handicap in the GHIN system or initially show 5 score cards with scores. Our games our scored by gross and net so a handicap is required.
On Piperette Tuesday every stroke and putt is counted. There are no given putts. Your score will be entered each Tuesday by the Pro Shop. USGA rules apply except for some local rules which you will find on the website. Each foursome is responsible for tallying scores and putting them on the game sheet after golf. Game coordinators will collect the money after golf and award money to the winners. Winners are determined by results put on game sheet so please be sure to be accurate.
Welcome to the Piperettes! We look forward to playing with you and a great 2024 season.
