UPDATES

EARLY SEASON TEST SET

 

Just like last year, we plan to have a test set in late October.  Since we're still early in our training season, this version will be aerobic-focused.

TEAM STORE - COMING SOON!

 

Do you have any AGUA Masters gear you want to see in our team store?  Feel free to let Jim Wu know at jwu@asphaltgreen.org as we build it out and share once it's ready.
