Important Notes

  • All rounds must be played with another league member
  • Players/markers are responsible for ensuring the correct playing/daily handicap is applied to each round (according to course, tees and current GA handicap)
  • For Big Dog award, only rounds with no pick-ups (incomplete holes) count
  • Up until the final day, your best 6 stableford scores will count towards the Champion award. Your final day score will then be multiplied by two and added to this.
  • Up until the final day, your best 6 scores vs. par will count towards the Big Dog award. Your final day score will then be added to this (with no multiplier).
  • Players unable to attend the Final Day may prenominate a round (to the whatsapp group prior to tee-off) to be their final round towards the Champion Award (score × 2) and the Big Dog Award
  • Tiebreaker for prizes is a chip&putt-off from a place beside on the practice green (nominated by the lowest ranked player present) after the final round. If a player is not present on the final day, the tiebreaker is forfeited.
  • If a course has a different number of holes than 9 or 18, holes 1-9 can count as the front 9, holes 10-18 can count as the back 9 (i.e. any holes beyond 18 cannot be counted and if a course has 10-17 holes, only a front 9 score can be submitted)
  • If you don't have an official GA handicap, you cannot submit scores until you do. Your handicap at the start of your first submitted round will count as your "starting handicap"
  • Maximum GA handicap: 27
  • Upload your scorecard and send it to the whatsapp chat after each round to have it counted
