This group meets on Tuesday mornings. The starting time is a 9:00am shotgun throughout the season. The Golf Pro assembles the team in either ABCD order or in order of handicap. Each Tuesday there is a "game of the day" with prize money in the form of pro shop credit available to winners each week. The 18-hole group also pays out for individual low gross, low net, birdies, and chip-ins. In addition, there are several tournaments played on Tuesdays for larger payouts. While all handicaps are welcome, the maximum 18-hole handicap that a player may use on Tuesdays is 40.

This group meets on Wednesday mornings, also with a 9:00 am shotgun start throughout the season. As with Tuesday outings, the Golf Pro assembles teams into ABCD handicaps for the "game of the day." Prize money in the form of pro shop credit is awarded to the winners each week. The last Wednesday of every month is always a scramble, and the 9-hold group has a "9-Hole Club Championship" that is played on Wednesdays in August. There is no maximum handicap for playing in the 9-hole games.

All members of the HCCLA are eligible to join WYCAGA. WYCAGA is a league of 9 member clubs throughout York County. WYCAGA sponsors head-to-head interclub matches and several large events throughout the season.
