Traverse Area Singles League gathers every Tuesday from April through August. Each week features a different course, along with weekly cash payouts, an ace pool, and a points series. This league is open to the public and doesn't require a season-long commitment or membership. 
You can either register in-person from 5:30pm-6:00pm or opt for a flex start, which means you can play anytime from sunrise to sunset.
