Formats and Rules
MULLIGANS:
  • Teams are entitled to one extra shot on the front and back nines on both Saturday and Sunday. This means the front and back nines of the golf course not your teams first and second nine holes.
  • Any member of the team can use the shot.
  • Mulligans do not have to be used, they are just an extra shot.
  • Mulligans cannot be used on the green or apron. Outside of this area only.
TWO CLUB RULE:
  • Ball can be rolled two club lengths from its original spot. NO CLOSER TO THE HOLE. This does not apply to the putting green, apron, out of bounds stakes or sand traps. The rule is meant to allow you to roll the ball away from trees, bushes, benches, etc.
DRAINAGE DITCH:
  • The drainage ditch is a hazard and should be played accordingly. It is a one-stroke penalty to remove the ball and play it.
SCORING:
  • The team captain is responsible for keeping score of his team and the team he is paired with.
  • The score card is to be returned to the Pro Shop immediately following your round.
  • Each team should verify the score card prior to handing it in.
FORMAT:
  • Three Man Scramble: Each player hits then moves to the best shot. This is repeated until the ball is holed.
  • NO GIMMES!! All holes must be finished. All balls outside of six inches must be marked. If a "tap-in" is missed that ball is considered to be out of play, the player loses his turn and you must use one of the remaining shots.
  • After Friday's round all scores will be cut in half and rounded up.

    E.g.:

    • Friday Score, 8 under. Start Saturday 4 under.
    • Friday Score, 5 under. Start Saturday 3 under.

  • The top twenty teams and ties will be placed in the "A" Division. You must be within 4 shots of the lead after your score is adjusted to remain in the "A" Division.
  • All other teams will be placed in the "B" Division and will start Saturday at even par. Friday's scores are voided.
  • Ties: If the "A" Flight has a tie for the lead after Saturday, the first tiebreaker will be your two day total score before the Friday adjustment. The second tiebreaker will be a sudden-death playoff. If the "B" Flight has a tie, cards will be drawn to determine the order in which prizes will be awarded.
PLAYER NO-SHOW:
  • If your top-rated player does not show, the top rated player on the team you are playing with will play for both teams. At the end of the round this player must choose between the two teams as to which team he is on.
  • If your seconded rated player does not show you are allowed one extra putt on the green only.
  • If your third rated player does not show…. Too Bad!! No extra shots are allowed.
