Each Sunday at 8 am, 9 am in March and late October to the end of the season, during the handicap season, the first weekend in March through November, the BRGC Men's Club conducts its weekly game. New for 2009, both a nine-hole and 18-hole game will be conducted each week.  Players may enter one or both games. Entry fee for the 18-hole game is $6 ($3 into the prize fund, $1 for closest-to-the-pin contests and $1 into the BRGC Scholarship Fund) including the optional $1 entry into the Hole-in-One Fund.  Five dollars will gain entry into the nine-hole game ($2 for the prize fund, $1 for closest-to-the-pin contests and $1 into the BRGC Scholarship Fun) including the optional $1 entry into the Hole-in-One fund.  Entry fee to play in both games is $9, only one entry into the BRGC Scholarship Fund and one entry into the Hole-in-One Fund.

Game formats alternate between individual and team competitions, but always allow the player to post a score for handicap purposes. One-third of the field and ties, plus closest-to-the-pin winners - one per hole - win prize money in the form of BRGC Gift Cards.

Hole-in-One Fund money is paid out to a member who makes an ace during a club event, less $50 for a trophy. If no one makes an ace during the season, the fund is rolled over into the Scholarship Fund.
