The Five Boroughs Cup

  • Each month, April to September, we pick two different courses to play. Members have 30 days to play one of the courses with another member and post their score to the tour leaderboard.

    Members are able to easily communicate and coordinate rounds together via our virtual members clubhouse and with the help of our club staff. We will also post pre-booked tee sheets in the virtual clubhouse, allowing members to book directly through FBGC and avoid needing to coordinate with other members.

    We will have a mix of playing formats throughout the season (net stroke, stableford, two-man scramble) with season-long points gained depending on your finishing position each month. The finals will be Net Stroke.

  • Whether you’re scratch or just breaking 100, there’s a flight for you:

    • A Flight: 0 - 4.9 HCP

    • B Flight: 5 - 9.9 HCP

    • C Flight: 10 - 14.9 HCP

    • D Flight: 15 - 19.9 HCP

    • E Flight: 20+ HCP (Max HCP is 30)

  • Double Points, Double the Stakes

    During the season, we will host in-person Majors at premier courses within the city limits (Long Island, Westchester, New Jersey) where the stakes are higher—points are doubled for everyone! These Majors are your chance to shake up the standings, catch up on the leaderboard and, most importantly, enjoy an awesome day on a beautiful course with fellow New Yorkers. 🏌️‍♂️

  • From free golf gear to gift cards and lessons, you will have a chance to win something awesome every month.

    First place in each flight for the entire season will win a prize with a minimum value of $300. Prizes are TBD.

  • Our flexible structure allows you to play the full season or pick and choose events at your convenience. You’ll still rack up points and have a chance to compete in the finals.

  • It all comes down to October. Compete in one of three finals days and post your final score. Winners from each flight will snag awesome prizes from FBGC and our sponsors.

    The more points you have from the regular season, the greater your starting lead in the finals.

  • NYC golf is expensive, but as an FBGC member, you’ll enjoy exclusive discounts on gear, events, and more from our partners.
