The Senior Golf League Beginnings
The origin of The Senior Golf League is not a specific point in time. Around 1995 three men started getting together regularly to play golf at Lexington’s Pine Meadows. They invited friends and for a time this informal group grew. Then two of the original men moved away and the group began to dwindle. The remaining leader was Lexington resident Thaddeus “Ted” Gorczyca.
Ted, encouraged by his wife Anita, decided to put announcements about the league at the Lexington community center, in community announcements and in local publications. The league began to grow again and new leaders offered to help Ted manage the group’s activities.
Ted was a career Air Force officer who served in Korea and Vietnam. Following his service, he worked as a mechanical engineer at Stone and Webster.
