PRGC Texas Scramble for Couples – A Call to Action for All Members
Dear Members,
We are excited to launch our new Sunday Afternoon Texas Scramble for Couples — a fun, relaxed, beginner‑friendly way to bring more women into the game and strengthen the social heartbeat of PRGC.
This initiative has already received strong support from Rosemary de Lacy, Chair of the BCLGA, who described it as “a brilliant, friendly pathway that helps women take their first steps into golf alongside someone they trust.” Her enthusiasm confirms we’re doing something genuinely valuable for the future of women’s golf.
What the idea is
A simple, enjoyable 9‑hole Texas Scramble where:
- You play as a team
- The format removes pressure
- Ladies play FREE on a Sunday afternoon
- Coaching support is available
- The atmosphere is social, welcoming, and confidence‑building
It’s designed specifically for women who are new to golf, returning after time away, or curious to try the game in a safe, friendly environment.
Why BCLGA loved it
Rosemary de Lacy praised the initiative because it:
- Makes golf accessible and unintimidating
- Encourages couples to enjoy the game together
- Helps women take their first step with someone they trust
- Builds confidence and removes barriers
- Strengthens club community and grows participation
This is exactly the kind of grassroots development the county wants to support.
How our gentlemen members can help
Gents, this initiative depends on you.
Your invitation is the spark that gets your partner or friends onto the course. You can:
- Bring your wife or partner for a relaxed, fun Sunday - maybe make up a four ball
- Help her experience golf without pressure
- Share the game you already love
Your encouragement will make the difference between someone thinking about trying golf… and actually doing it.
How our lady members can help
Ladies, you are already confident golfers — and your influence could be the difference that makes the difference.
This initiative gives you a chance to:
- Encourage your friends, neighbours, colleagues, or family to give golf a try
- Help women who feel unsure or intimidated to take their first step
- Showcase how welcoming and supportive PRGC really is
- Grow the future of the ladies’ section
A friendly nudge from you could be the moment that someone discovers or rediscovers a lifelong love of golf.
A real call to action
We want this to become a highlight of our club’s Sundays — but it will only succeed if you get involved.
Gents — bring your partners. Ladies — encourage your friends.
Let’s grow the game together. Let’s help more women fall in love with golf.
Thank you in advance for any support that you can offer 😊
