You play your handicap
Every event is scored on net — net score = your gross score minus your course handicap. A 22 and a 5 tee it up on the same terms.

Welcome to the 2027 season
Every golfer has a game here.
Any handicap can win.
Madera Municipal Golf Club (MMGC) is a non-profit NCGA golf club — separate from the golf course. We play monthly net tournaments at Madera Municipal Golf Course, keep an official USGA Handicap Index, and enjoy a season of friendly competition, good company, and one Club Champion at the end of it.

A new season begins
Welcome to the 2027 season.
We open on Saturday, November 21 with a Wild Turkey Ball Scramble. Returning members, welcome back — and if you're new, there has never been a better season to start. Here's what's new.
New to MMGC? There's time to join.
Season points start with our first points event on Saturday, January 30, and memberships activate on January 1 — join now
and you're set for the start of the points race.
- A closer points raceEvery finishing position earns its own points, so every round moves you up or down the standings.
- One bad round won't sink youYour best 8 of 9 events count, so a tough day or a missed month won't knock you out of the race.
- More places paidEach event now pays 5 to 8 prizes depending on turnout, up from 4.
- A real shot at the titleThe top 16 in the standings play net match play for Club Champion — your handicap travels with you, so anyone in the bracket can win it.
- Sign up by Sunday nightRegistration and payment close at 11:59 pm the Sunday before each event.
How it works
A Club for every golfer, not just the low handicaps.
Three ideas run through the whole season.
Every event counts
Nine points events from January to September, your best eight counting. Points separate every finishing position, so showing up and playing steady pays off.
October match play
The top sixteen in the standings meet in a net match play bracket for the Club Championship — one match a week through October.
Club or course?
We're the club. They're the course.
The names are nearly the same, but we're two different organizations. MMGC is a non-profit club run by volunteer members; Madera Municipal Golf Course is the course we play on.
