The 2023 ANS Utility Working Conference (UWC) Golf Tournament will be held at Hammock Bay at Marco starting at 8:30 am. This tournament is open to all conference attendees and guests.
Your foursome will be assigned after receipt of your registration and payment. You will be notified a week prior to the Tournament.
A $150 golf tournament fee is required from each UWC registered attendee. You may register your guest(s) for golf at a fee of $150 per person. The fee includes:

The format of the tournament will be Best Ball Scramble. With this format each player will hit his/her drive. You select the best shot and everyone plays their next shot from that location. You continue this format until the ball is holed out.
We will make every attempt to have the teams evenly paired to keep the scores as competitive as possible. If you have someone that you wish to be paired with, please include during your registration.
If you are unable to participate in the golf tournament after you have registered, please contact the ANS Registrar at registrar@ans.org, immediately. No refunds will be issued after Friday, July 7; however, you may send a substitute. If you have any golf questions, please contact registrar.
