There are a limited number tee times available and they want to have as many golfers as possible play. In an effort to make things easier for everyone, golfers will be allowed to pre-register for the tournaments (below).  Pay when you sign in the day of the tournament. The golfers that pre-register will be able to get their tee times by Friday before the tournament. Of course, golfers can register on the day of the tournament as well.
