White Plains FootGolf - A new sport in Southern Maryland. Combines the excitement of soccer and golf into one awesome game!
What is FootGolf?
White Plains Golf Course is an official member of the United States FootGolf Association. We are the first USFGA certified course in the State of Maryland.
FootGolf is a combination of the popular sports of soccer and golf. To play FootGolf, players use soccer balls on a traditional golf course with 21-inch diameter cups. White Plains FootGolf Course has 18 holes built within the front nine of our traditional golf course. It is designed so that both regular golf and FootGolf can be played simultaneously.
The sport is played in the traditional format of up to four players per group, with FootGolfers either walking the course or using golf carts. Holes are roughly half the distance of a regular golf hole. While the soccer ball doesn’t travel as far in the air as a golf ball, it will roll much farther in the fairways. A typical 18-hole round of FootGolf will take under two hours to play.
FootGolf uses golf’s basic model including tee boxes, greens, bunkers, hazards and 18 holes of play. Scorecards display par scores and distance for each hole. The rules are simple largely correspond to regular golf – fewest kicks to get your ball in the hole is the goal and the best score after 18 holes wins!
From recreational enjoyment to competitive leagues and tournament play, FootGolf offers an exciting new way to experience soccer and golf all in one package. Check it out!
