Torrey Team Play

For those members with a competitive spirit, TPMGC offers several opportunities to represent the club by joining one of our teams.

SCGA team play runs from January through March with the playoffs finishing in April. 16 players from each club participate in each match. We play a home and away match against each team in our group. There are two singles matches and a fourball match in every foursome. Torrey North is our home course.

Our weekday SCGA team plays against three private courses: The Grand, La Valle, and El Camino. Most matches on are Thursdays. The team is captained by Roy Burchill and Jamie Ogle.

Our weekend SCGA team competes against Coronado, San Vicente and Steele Canyon. Matches are on Saturdays. The team is captained by Matt VanMeeteren and Jamie Ogle.

Each fall we solicit interest from members to participate in one of the teams. The captains make some tough decisions as to who makes the team and who doesn’t as we typically have many more members who want to play than we can accommodate. The only restriction is that you must have an index of 18.4 or less to be considered.  Those are the league’s rules, not ours.

The club also participates in the San Diego County Senior League. Our team captain is Paul Lawrence. You must be age 55 or older to be considered for this team. Our home course is Rancho Bernardo Inn. The season runs March through October. Six players from each team compete in each match with two points at stake on each on each hole. There are 16 teams in the league so many opportunities to play other courses in the county

The final team play opportunity is the Grand Torrey Cup which is our annual mid-summer home and away match with the Grand Golf Club. Each team has 24 players. One rounds is played at Torrey South followed by a round at the Grand. Each TPMGC member has a chance to qualify for this event during designated Fourball tournaments in the Spring and Summer. Our team is captained by Roy Burchill and Marc Couillard. After not prevailing for the first five years of this event, Team Torrey now owns the Cup after winning in 2024 and 2025.
