The 2011 season ended on September 26th with the final event at Pottawattomie CC in Michigan City. It was a great fall day for golf with plenty of sunshine and temperatures in the mid 60’s. The golf course was in excellent shape with the sloping greens putting fast and true for the 113 players.
The final tournament is always a popular event that includes lunch, dinner and extra awards and door prizes. Pottawattomie is an excellent private golf course and was a great choice for our final tournament. The golf and banquet staffs always do a great job for the MSGA.
The Board also wants to thank all the players who participated in this year’s tournaments and made this year a very successful year for the MSGA. The average attendance for all ten events was 103, the highest average attendance in the MSGA’s thirteen year history.

Welcome to the website of the Michiana Seniors Golf Association (MSGA). The organization is made up of amateur senior players (age 50+) who love and enjoy the game of golf and a little competition and fellowship on some great golf courses. The Michiana area includes Northern Indiana and Southwest Michigan.

Mike Gilpin, President
The 2011 season was the 13th year for the MSGA and included ten tournaments played from May to September. Of the 2011 tournaments, six were held at private country clubs and four at public golf courses throughout the Michiana area. We opened the schedule at Whittaker Woods GC on May 9th with 129 players and closed the season at Pottawattomie CC on September 26th with 113 players.
In between, we had guest days at Tippecanoe Lake CC and Valparaiso CC and the MSGA Championship at Plymouth CC. We had one course new to the MSGA in 2011; Sand Creek CC in Chesterton, IN on May 23rd. Sand Creek is a highly rated course and was a great venue for the MSGA. The year’s complete schedule can be seen by clicking on the Tournaments tab above.
The 2011 season was a solid success with attendance averaging 103 players per tournament, slightly above the previous high set in 2005 at 100 players. The Two-Man Championship also set a record with 70 players.
The Board of Directors is looking forward to another great year in 2012 and will post the 2012 schedule on the website as soon as contracts are confirmed.
