The Brisleys became involved with the FSGA in 1994 when Joe and their son, Patrick, played in the Parent-Child Championship. Taffie began volunteering with the Florida Women's State Golf Association in 1995, where she served as a Board Member and the president in 2002. When the FWSGA and FSGA merged in 2012, Taffie continued volunteering with the FSGA, with Joe joining her in 2010.
Their time and dedication to the game is evident, volunteering at 50 events in the last five years alone. Taffie is well versed in the Rules of Golf, as a Senior Rules Official, and served as a Rules Official on the LPGA Futures Tour.
The Brisleys bring a personal touch to every task, creating lasting relationships with players, spectators and officials. Players arrive to events excited to be greeted by Taffie and Joe with such positivity and support. Their passion for golf is truly infectious.
The couple met and grew up together in Virginia, where they attended the same elementary and high school. They got married after college and have been married for 48 years. Joe started playing golf at a young age and worked as a caddie in high school at Westwood Country Club, while Taffie picked up the game in college, when she learned to play as a part of her physical education major.
