Getting Involved 

Who are we and what do we do? Waterlefe residents are active, sociable, friendly and have a variety of interests and talents.  The Manatee/Sarasota County areas of Central Florida on the Gulf Coast is known as the Suncoast. We are blessed with waterways, golf courses, and beautiful beaches.  It also provides a multitude of cultural amenities. There are museums, theater, music and more. Its beaches are voted the best in the world, and the area attracts people who love active lifestyles, sports, theatre, art, film, travel, fine cuisine, history, civic duty, and developing lifelong friendships. Here’s just a sampling of our Activities: 
    • Ladies Niners.  This group is for fun play and improving your game.  Annual membership is minimal; they play on Wednesday afternoons in season and Wednesday mornings off season.  There are numerous special events for play and clinics for learning the rules and etiquette of golf.  Many non-players have become outstanding players thanks to this group.
    • Men’s Duffers. Another fun-focused golf group but for the men of the community.
    • Men's & Women's Golf Association Leagues.  Learn more.
