Indoor Golf League in a Pandemic

General Discussion
#1

Anyone else feeling skittish about this?
My local LPGAA chapter just sent out invites for the indoor league, and I’m on the fence.

Last year I signed up, played 1 night and broke my ankle at work the next day. They wouldn’t refund my league fees; my only recourse was to find a sub every week ( except no one signed up to sub for the league so bye-bye $200).

I’m more concerned about the safety of playing indoors during a pandemic, particularly as we’re currently experiencing an uptick in COVID cases ( but I also don’t want to donate league fees again :roll_eyes:).

Would you or wouldn’t you?

Honestly, the not refunding your league fees would be disqualifying for me… do you have access to simulators somewhere else?

I’m planning on using simulators this winter, but not in a league.

I miss my years playing simulator golf competitively in Korea, but I absolutely would not be doing it these days with everything COVID going on.

I already declined the official indoor league. There’s another facility closer to home ( it’s pretty cool, was designed just like Butler Cabin at Augusta). Has Trackman and the bays are ginormous ; myself and a couple of other girls from my summer league are going to play when we feel like it.
That way if things get worse, we don’t play, but if not, I can enter my log-in and my swing coach can keep an eye on what’s going on with my swing.
Win-win.

Not unless I’d taken the vaccine already! (that’s assuming it were available)

Our club is doing one. We have three bays and they’ve walked us (virtually) through how it’s going to work. They’re not really in it to turn a profit, so it’s set up very safely by staggering bay times, spacing, limiting group size, etc.

I’m doing it because I hate the off-season and I trust what they have in place for our safety. If it were at all sketchy I’d just be staying home and using the SC300 in the garage - which I will also be doing.
