The North Scottsdale Men's Golf Association is dedicated to fun, fellowship and great golf! Our professional staff has worked closely with the great team at our home course, Vista Verde, to establish the organization. Our goal is to provide local players the opportunity to play in a "Country Club" atmosphere where service and attention to detail are important aspects of the golfing experience as well as provide a competitive environment for our members.
Along with the great atmosphere you will be experiencing golf on one of the best maintained courses in the valley. From the lush fairways to smooth and true greens, your ability will be put to the test week in and week out!
The membership consists of gentlemen golfers of varying skill levels, all of whom were looking for an organized group to play with on a weekly or bi-monthly basis. Our volunteer committee makes sure there is a "game" set up every week, an optional skins game, hole-in-one pool, post-tournament scoring and awards.
If you have been looking for a great place to play, with a group of fun loving dedicated golfers... The North Scottsdale Men's Golf Association is the right place for you! What are you waiting for? Email us today for all the details on how you and your friends can join our organization.
