Confirmed event schedule
September 29 · Shotgun at 1:00 p.m.
Awards and cocktails begin in the banquet hall at 6:00 p.m.
Gross uses the team’s actual score. Net applies the team handicap allowance.
The Net Division allowance is calculated from each player’s Course Handicap.
Tee box assignments
Play from the assigned tees.
Each player uses the tee assignment that applies to them for the entire tournament round.
Net Division
Team handicap allowance
Convert each player’s Handicap Index to a Course Handicap from that player’s assigned tee. The lower Course Handicap receives a 35% allowance and the higher Course Handicap receives a 15% allowance.
Add the two allowances and round the total to the nearest whole number. Apply those strokes using the scorecard’s handicap allocation.
Example: Course Handicaps of 8 and 18 produce 2.8 + 2.7 = 5.5, rounded to a team allowance of 6.Basic playing procedure
How to play the scramble
Both players tee off
Each team member plays a tee shot on every hole. The team then selects the preferred shot.
Mark the selected ball
Mark the position of the chosen ball before either player lifts or plays it. Playing order is the team’s choice.
Play from the chosen spot
Both players play the next shot from within one club-length of the selected spot, no closer to the hole. The ball must remain in the same area of the course; a selected bunker or penalty-area ball must stay in that area.
Putting green procedure
On the putting green, mark the selected ball. Both players putt from within one putter-head length of that mark, no closer to the hole.
Continue until holed
Repeat the selection process after every shot until one team ball is holed. Once a ball is holed, the team’s score for that hole is complete.
Record one team score
Record the team’s gross score for each hole. All putts must be holed unless the tournament committee announces otherwise.
Scoring and rule priority
Return one complete team scorecard.
Both players should verify the card before it is returned. Lowest gross score wins the Gross Division, and lowest score after the team allowance wins the Net Division. The tournament committee will resolve ties and any rules questions. Event notices and pro shop instructions take priority if they differ from this basic sheet.
