WELCOME To all the participants, spectators, and volunteers, I bid you welcome to the New York State Amateur Mixed Team Championships. The New York State Golf Association is privileged to join with the management and staff of Brook-Lea Country Club to provide a memorable challenge in crowning New York’s premier amateur mixed teams.

It is a great pleasure to return to this historic Donald Ross design which has been the site of a couple memorable New York State Championships, including the 1986 Women’s Amateur and the 1991 Men’s Amateur.

On behalf of the entire New York State Golf Association, I would like to offer our appreciation and thanks to the management, clubhouse staff, Golf Professional staff, and especially the course grounds crew of Brook-Lea whose combined efforts has provided us with this wonderful venue. We certainly expect an exciting Championship competition which will challenge the golfers to employ all of their golf ing skills.

Additional thanks go out to our dedicated NYSGA staff who, with our tournament volunteers, work so hard to provide a tournament worthy of the talented competitors.

This is a wonderful opportunity to put the past year of the COVID-19 pandemic behind us and to focus on the true enjoyment that the game of golf brings us. So, here’s wishing all the participants the best of luck and, no matter the outcome, please enjoy this experience and the great memories this beautiful venue will bring you.

Sincerely,

BROOK-LEA COUNTRY CLUB

Brook-Lea Country Club is located in Rochester, New York.

The Brook-Lea Country Club was constructed in 1926, led by renowned golf course architect Donald Ross. He hand drew the layout, originally envisioned as 27 holes. While some of the holes have been renumbered f rom their original labels on the blueprints, his hallmarks are found throughout the course.

The members and staff are committed to providing a comfortable and relaxed atmosphere. This golf course remains one of Rochester’s most challenging and enjoyable golf courses, sitting on 188 spectacularly scenic acres that include upland meadows, a meandering creek, ponds, and mature woodlands.

The course ranges in length f rom just under 5,900 yards f rom the Red tees to 6,800 yards f rom the Blue tees. This course has been home to a couple New York State championships: the 1986 Women’s Amateur and the 1991 Men’s Amateur.

Than k you to th e sta ff a t Brook- Le a f or ho s ting th is yea r’s ch a mpion s h ip!
