Fees, Eligibility, and Prize Money

Fees:             The annual dues of $125 pays all MGA tournament entry fees with the exception of the two Ryder Cup events. The member pays applicable cart fees.

Benefits

Include:       The $125 membership dues are paid back to you! Typically, 50% of the field will be paid per event, so there is no reason to think you can’t get your money’s worth during the year!

                        In addition, MGA events are given “preferential” tee times for all events.

                        This is a great way to meet new golfing partners in a relaxed, and good-natured competitive environment.

Eligibility:  All primary dues paying adult male Bayou Club members with full golfing privileges are eligible for membership and shall be automatically billed in January by the Club for the annual dues.  Those Club members wishing not to participate in the MGA must inform the Club by no later than February 20^th to avoid this charge.
