Meet Me At The Tee: The South Florida League Built on "No Strings, No Frills, and Absolutely No Random Dudes"

Featured League · South Florida (Miami to West Palm Beach)

*screeches tires in the golf cart*

Alright ladies, pull up because this is the league that set off my journey to highlight all women's leagues.

But first, let's take a quick journey…

Imagine you just moved across the entire country. You're exhausted from seeing highway signs, ate too many free slices of jerky at all the Buc-ee's stops, and honestly, highway traffic is now something you will quite literally avoid at all costs.

You arrive at your destination, you have a brand new baby, and you know exactly zero people in your new state.

You've got the itch to golf but every time you book a tee time, you're paired with randos that continually give you unsolicited swing advice as if they're a paid actor in your story.

Well, my friends, that hero mentioned above is Nicole Shapiro.

Instead of accepting the mansplaining timeline as a permanent reality, she did the single most unhinged-in-a-good-way thing a girl can do.

She built her own group of ladies so she could finally find her people.

That group is Meet Me at the Tee, which now has over 800 active women on Facebook and over 2,000 holding strong on Instagram.

This absolute icon went from "I have no friends here" to a full-blown movement across South Florida, where she's lived for over two years.

*cue the happy tears and insert plenty of high fives here*

So What Actually IS Meet Me At The Tee?

The vibe for Nicole's group is pretty simple and I'm absolutely here for it…

Zero membership requirement.

Yep. True story.

There's no cost, no commitment, no "you must have a handicap." You show up to the events you actually want to try. That's it. That's the model. And it's refreshing!

Nicole kicked things off January 2023 making Meet Me at the Tee a public, beginner-friendly league built for women of all ages and levels. All of it's designed so you can peep the different areas and find exactly where you fit in.

There are monthly events, and they're spread across different areas, each with its own energy, so you can come for the format that fits where you're at in your golf journey.

Total beginner? Clinic. Feeling brave? Scramble. Just want snacks and to make the group chat live with zero swing talk? Ladies Night, welcome home.

Why the South Florida Ladies of Golf Are Obsessed

I truly believe "Meet Me at the Tee" is so successful because of Nicole's "no strings, no frills" philosophy, which creates a safe space where ladies can learn to hop into this world of golf without feeling judged or pressured to be "good."

And ladies, we know that's a thing. We know those kinds of pressures and limiting beliefs are what's keeping a lot of ladies away from the course. Nicole and her group work hard to remove those barriers, creating an environment that has no pressure…no performance…no proving.

Just golf. Just vibes.

How To Actually Join

The easiest part of this whole thing:

• Find them on their online platforms (Facebook + Instagram)
• Follow @meetmeatthetee and keep an eye on social for events
• Show up to the one that speaks to you

No golf handicap required. If you're in South Florida (Miami up through West Palm Beach) this is your sign.

The Real Real

Meet Me At The Tee is what happens when a woman decides she deserves community and refuses to wait around for someone else to hand it to her. Nicole craved connection through the game of golf, so she built a place where hundreds of women now feel like they belong.

That's not just a golf league. That's a whole love letter to every woman who's ever thought "I want in, but I'm scared I'm not good enough."

You're good enough. Meet her at the tee.
