2020 PRESIDENT’S REPORT
The Chicago Women’s District Golf Association (CWDGA) completed its 90th year in 2020. The 2020 season was one of cancellations due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The following report summarizes the events of the year.
MEETINGS: The CWDGA held nine regular board meetings during the period between September 1, 2019 – August 31, 2020. The February and March meetings were held at Itasca Country Club. Board meetings held in April – August were remote only using freeconferencecall.com. The September and October board meetings were held via Zoom.
In addition to our regular monthly board meetings, there were five additional meetings:
1. March 18 – an Officers meeting was held remotely to discuss the Spring Meeting and Rules Seminar along with Four-Ball Match Play dates and Team Captains’ meetings.
2. April 6 – a Special Board meeting was held remotely to discuss the status of Four-Ball Match Play.
3. May 7 – an Officers meeting was held remotely to discuss the Better-Ball of Pairs tournament and the 89th Annual CWDGA Championship.
4. May 11 – a Special Board meeting was held remotely to discuss the cancellation of the Better-Ball of Pairs tournament and the 89th Annual CWDGA Championship.
5. July 13 – an Officers call was held remotely to discuss the One-Day Stroke and Senior Better-Ball tournaments.
Our combined Spring Meeting and Rules Seminar was canceled due to the pandemic. All documents that were typically distributed at the Spring Meeting were emailed to each club. Our Annual Fall Meeting was held on Wednesday, October 14 as a webinar via Zoom.
TEAM MATCH: All Four-Ball Matches were canceled on April 7. Pat Murlas, Team Match Chair, informed the Host Clubs and Team Captains. Sectional Team & Handicap Chairs rescheduled all the canceled matches for 2021 at the same venues.
CHAMPIONSHIP TOURNAMENT: Our 89th Annual Championship at Medinah Country Club was canceled on May 14, 2020. Mary Adolf, CWDGA Vice President and Championship Tournament Chair, notified all registered players of the cancellation. Geri McLauchlan, CWDGA Treasurer, refunded the full entry fee to all registered players.
TOURNAMENTS: The Better-Ball of Pairs tournament was canceled on May 14, 2020 and the One-Day Stroke tournament was canceled on August 7, 2020. Diane Mazurczak notified all registered players of these cancellations. Full refunds were issued by Geri McLauchlan.
Fortunately, the Senior Better-Ball of Pairs tournament continued as planned at Exmoor Country Club on Thursday, September 24. We appreciate the hard work of Exmoor’s staff, the Ladies’ Golf Chair and committees, and the members of Exmoor for the privilege of playing their course. Diane Mazurczak, Tournament Chair, managed the event with additional work preparing COVID-19 documents. I’d like to extend a special thank you to the Chicago District Golf Association (CDGA) for their assistance with these documents. Congratulations to the winners.
HANDICAP: The CWDGA continues to work with the CDGA to ensure fair and accurate handicaps for all members. Alison Salzman, Handicap Chair, is the liaison between the CWDGA and the CDGA. The CWDGA posted scores for the Senior Better-Ball tournament at Exmoor using the “live scoring” technology.
RULES: Due to the pandemic, our Rules Seminar was canceled in 2020. Cherie Kessler, Rules Chair, and Nancy Nemec, Assistant Rules Chair, provided documents to each club’s rules chair and were available to answer any rules questions.

2020 PRESIDENT’S REPORT
COMMUNICATIONS: The ongoing update of the website, www.cwdga.org, which contains the Handbook for Members, the Annual Report, and the yearly brochure were managed and coordinated by Communications Chair, Linda Searl; Website Chair, Johanna Cheung; and Member Services Chair, Val Metcalf. We thank these ladies for their hard work and attention to detail. Our Handbook for Members took on a new look this year. The new Handbook is a permanent binder with inserts to be refreshed each season with updated information. Since the Spring Meeting was canceled, CWDGA board members distributed all Handbooks to the member clubs.
COURSE RATING: The CWDGA again worked with the CDGA to measure, rate, and slope our member courses upon request. This ensures that a player’s Handicap Index can transfer fairly from one course to another. Our Course-rating Chair is Sally Clissold who coordinates the course ratings.
HOLES-IN-ONE: Congratulations to all our members who made a hole-in-one in 2020. Each of these women will receive a pin from the CWDGA as a memento of their achievement. These pins will be delivered to them by a CWDGA Board member in the spring of 2021.
BOARD MEMBERS: In 2020, the CWDGA Board consisted of 23 very hard-working women. I thank them for giving so much time, energy, and enthusiasm to this organization. One CWDGA Board member is retiring this year: Northwest Sectional Handicap Chair, Cheryl Dortch (2019-2020). We thank Cheryl for her service to the CWDGA. Her enthusiasm and expertise will be missed! The Slate of Officers for 2020 consists of 24 positions.
TOURNAMENT SCHEDULE FOR 2021: We are pleased to announce our tournament schedule for 2021 and would like to thank the following clubs who will host these tournaments next year.
Better-Ball of Pairs Crystal Tree Golf & Country Club Monday, June 7, 2021
One-Day Stroke Play North Shore Country Club Date to be determined
89th Annual CWDGA Championship Medinah Country Club August 2021
Senior Better-Ball of Pairs Midlothian Country Club September 2021

I hope to see you in person in 2021.
Stay well,

2020 VICE-PRESIDENT’S REPORT
The CWDGA would like to express our sincere thanks to Medinah Country Club who generously offered to host the 89th Annual CWDGA Championship and to all the CWDGA members who signed up to play. Unfortunately, due to COVID-19 and the Coronavirus pandemic a decision was made by the CWDGA to cancel the 89th Annual CWDGA Championship for 2020. The CWDGA is currently working with Medinah to schedule our 2021 89th Annual CWDGA Championship at Medinah Country Club. When we get dates secured, we will post them immediately on our web site and provide the details for registration.
We look forward to a great 2021 89th Annual CWDGA Championship and encourage all our members to watch our web site for details and registration information. Looking forward to seeing you at our 2021 Championship. Stay safe and healthy!

2020 HANDICAP CHAIR’S REPORT
In January 2020, The USGA and The R&A introduced the World Handicap System (WHS). A copy of Rules of Handicapping, effective January 2020 (which replaced the USGA Handicap System manual ), was distributed to all CWDGA member clubs in May.
CWDGA member clubs must use the World Handicap System (WHS). To ensure the consistency of the WHS, the Handicap Index of every player in the United States will be calculated and issued by the USGA. All of the CWDGA member clubs have been certified and are currently members of the Handicap Posting System through the Chicago District Golf Association. CDGA is the authorized Golf Association in our area providing this information. The active season for score posting in Illinois remains May 1 – October 31.
The CWDGA and the CWDGA Handicap Chair planned on providing an educational workshop on the WHS at the Spring meeting, but unfortunately the meeting had to be canceled due to the risk of COVID-19 and the State of Illinois stay at home order.
The CWDGA Handicap Chair’s responsibility is to work with the handicap chairs of member clubs, to ensure that their member’s handicaps are accurate and to help with decisions regarding handicap issues. In addition, the Chair is responsible for handicapping, preparing the appropriate reports for tournaments scheduled during the summer season, and posting of tournament scores from all CWDGA tournaments.
Please refer to the Golf Club/Handicap Committee responsibilities on page 80 Appendix A Section 2 in the Rules of Handicapping, effective January 2020 to determine if your club is following the WHS. See Rule 7, page 68, Handicap Committee Responsibilities
CWDGA Member club handicap chairs have specific duties and responsibilities. Please refer to the 2020 CWDGA Handbook for Members page 135 DUTIES OF CLUB HANDICAP COMMITTEE. Be knowledgeable about posting of home, away, competition and winter scores. This is important for equality in playing golf and tournaments.
It has been a pleasure serving as the CWDGA Handicap Chair. My sincere thanks to the officers and members of the CWDGA board for their assistance during this past season. If you have any questions regarding the WHS or posting of scores, please do not hesitate to contact me.

2020 RULES CHAIR’S REPORT
As a result of circumstances beyond our control CWDGA was unable to present its 19th Annual Rules Seminar during 2020. Links to videos and Rules situations were sent to all players in May.
Rules of Golf, Official Guide to the Rules of Golf, and Player’s Edition of the Rules of Golf, all effective January, 2019 continue to be the current USGA Rules publications. These publications are available online, from the USGA, and from CWDGA.
Since 2007 the CWDGA website has included a Rules of Golf Section. Again during 2020 a question and answer were presented on a monthly basis. Many of the questions are taken from situations that have occurred in CWDGA team match play and tournaments. This will be continued during 2021.
The Chicago Women’s District Golf Association is available to provide assistance in the interpretation of the Rules of Golf.
As always it has been a pleasure to work with the CWDGA Board and the CWDGA member clubs during 2020. Please feel free to contact me any time prior to and during the 2021 golf season.

2020 TEAM MATCH CHAIR’S REPORT
The CWDGA scheduled 25 matches between May 7th and June 25th. A total of 68 clubs registered 120 teams with 480 team players in 5 sections.
Unfortunately due to COVID-19 we decided to cancel the entire season on April 7th as it would not have been possible to play under the expected state restrictions for May and June.
All team fees were reimbursed to the players. All 2020 Host Clubs have been gracious enough to reschedule the play dates in 2021. We thank them for their cooperation.
I also want to thank the Sectional Team Captains and the 67 Team Captains for their time and assistance in cancelling and rescheduling the season.
We are looking forward to a successful 2021 Team Match Play season.

SELECTED INFORMATION – SUBSTANTIALLY ALL DISCLOSURES REQUIRED BY GAAP ARE NOT INCLUDED AUGUST 31, 2020
NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES The Chicago Women’s District Golf Association (CWDGA) is incorporated in Illinois as a not-for-profit, tax-exempt 501(c)(7) association. The mission of CWDGA is to advance the interests of women’s golf at its member clubs located in and around the Chicago area. CWDGA receives its support in the form of dues and fees for events.
Method of Reporting The financial statements are prepared on the cash basis of accounting. The cash basis of accounting is a comprehensive basis of accounting other than generally accepted accounting principles. Under this method, revenues are recognized when received, rather than when earned, and expenses when paid, rather than when incurred.
Basis of Presentation Net assets of the Association are unrestricted. Therefore, no separate classifications of assets restricted by donors, temporarily or permanently, are reflected in these financial statements. The only asset of the district is cash, which is available currently.
Revenues Membership dues are recorded when received. As membership in the Association is voluntary, it is impractical to record membership dues as revenue when billed, since membership can be terminated at any time. All other support revenue is also recorded when received, and not when billed.
Income Taxes The Chicago Women’s District Golf Association is exempt from income taxes under section 501(c)(7) of the Internal Revenue Code. The Association was granted tax-exempt status January 5,1994. Accordingly, no provision for income taxes is reflected in these financial statements.
NOTE 2 – CONTINGENCIES AND COMMITMENTS The Association is not aware of any pending litigation or potential undisclosed liabilities that management believes would have a material effect upon the financial position of the Association.
NOTE 3 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS Management Evaluation Management evaluated events and transactions that occurred after the balance sheet date for potential recognition and disclosure through October 23, 2020, the date on which the financial statements were available to be issued.
COVID-19 In December 2019, a novel strain of coronavirus was reported to have surfaced in China. The spread of this virus began to cause general business disruption in the United States in March of 2020. While the disruption is currently expected to be temporary, there is considerable uncertainty around the duration. Therefore, while the Company has been negatively impacted by the cancellation of events due to the virus, the related future financial impact and duration cannot be reasonably estimated at this time.
