A league is just an association created so that the members of the league can play in regular tournaments.

For example, the Men's Club at the local course could be considered a league. Or the Golf Channel Amateur Tour could be considered a (much larger) league.
league [leeg] - noun [...] 4. a group of athletic teams organized to promote mutual interests and to compete chiefly among themselves: a bowling league.

Harry's given a partial answer, I think. Maybe 90% complete, but still missing just a little something.

Within my CLUB (Lake View Country Club or Whispering Woods), there are also leagues. Tuesday night is the "men's league" - people have formed six-man teams, and five play each week in a 9-hole match play event for four points. Teams compete against each other.

I guess you could call each "team" a club, leagues are usually just within one club, and pit members of that club against each other. Some leagues are single player type, but most have "teams" within the club.

Some larger businesses have a league all of their own at a public golf course.

    • Day 35, June 8. Before leaving for work this morning (yes, I'm posting this quite late relative to the practice), I spent 15 minutes practicing at home, into a net.  This time, it was primarily 9-iron (full swings), with some UW (full and half) and a few 6-iron.  
    • Day 73: just some mirror work today. Working on feels for being open and getting the front shoulder down. 
    • I'm liking this. Finally getting down hands in front of my trail leg pocket consistently at A6 with much better clubhead position (relatively not as tipped out). I can really pressure the shaft through impact with good face control  from this position and stay in balance. Won my first one v one march 5&4 against a 4 hcp who routinely drives it 35-40 yards past me in the men's club match play . Frustrated him with some solid iron play and air tight putting.   
    • Day 279 6-8  Worked on low point control skills work tonight. will be doing this for a few weeks. Tonight was just trying figure out how to get low point forward.  No ball.  
    • Day 8 (Jun 8 26) - Stayed the drill but added two additional irons (7i, 8i and 9i) - using Divot Board and hard foam balls - focused on tempo and purposed pause at the top….noticing how open the club is marking the board when I try to kill it and how much more square (and better distance) when I focus on these keys.
