The Tellico Village Men's Golf Association

Charles Roffers to Lead MGA

A new year always seems to bring changes and 2022 is no exception. Our golf professional staff has shuffled the deck a bit for the coming year. Adam Jacob will be moving on from MGA leadership to handle a bigger administrative role. So, we are happy to welcome Charles Roffers as the new, lead golf professional in charge of MGA for 2022. Charles has been assisting Adam for a number of years, so the transition should be seamless. Charles recently attended his first MGA Board of Directors meeting and has some great ideas about how to make MGA signups and recordkeeping more efficient & user-friendly. He is even looking forward to streamlining the scoring & reporting of MGA events as well as tracking Player of the Year points in “real time”.

Assisting Charles this year will be Kahite’s Assistant Golf Professional, Lucas Forstrom. We are excited to welcome both of these gentlemen to their new roles and look forward to working with them in 2022!

Posting scores for GHIN inactive for two months

AAs 2021 comes to a end, our inactive score posting season will begin. For January and February of 2022, all Tellico Village golf scores will not be posted. If you play off site or out of state, you can still post any of those scores on your GHIN app. In March of 2022, we will start posting all Tellico Village scores.

The 2021 golf season in Tellico Village was a continuation of what has been a strong upward trend. More rounds played, great weather and continued population growth made for record numbers. MGA is a great way to get involved & stay involved in golf in the village. Meet new friends & prospective playing partners, learn new individual & team games, sharpen your skills, compete for merchandise prizes, enjoy fellowship and so much more! We have a men's event every Thursday. No weekly commitment. Simply sign up by noon on Wednesday in Chelsea and play when you want! Just visit any of our Pro Shops to renew/sign up. In the meantime, check out these MGA benefits for 2022:

PLAY YOUR OWN TEE . . . .You can sign up to play from the green or blue tees as well as our normal orange and white tees. This should be the tee you would normally play on most days, not simply a “move up” for a specific event. Green/Orange and White/Blue will share skins and POY pools.

SPRING FLING . . . . We will be keeping the popular, new You-Choose 27-Hole event on Saturday, May 14th. Play will include Better Ball, Scramble and Alternate Shot “nines”.

TWO-DAY MEMBER/MEMBER . . . . . Remains in the fall (October 1st/2nd). Choose your partner. Flighted based on handicap.

I'd like to add:

MONTHLY MGA NEWSLETTER . . . . . We began circulating a new, monthly digital MGA Newsletter in 2021. Look for it on/near the 1st of every month.

FOUR-MAN "YOU CHOOSE" . . . . . We will continue to offer periodic 4-man "You Choose" events in 2022. A great way to compete with partners of your choosing or to invite a new MGA prospect to compete.

LAKE TELLICO CHALLENGE . . . . Represent "Team Tellico" in our annual Ryder Cup style, 2-day match with neighboring Rarity Bay's MGA. Climb the Player of the Year points list and earn an invite to compete for the 3-time defending champs! The more you play . . the better your chances!
