The teams are made up of any interested full or associate member with a valid index.

No shows at a scheduled event will result in a forfeit.

Each match is worth 1 point to the winning team and  1/2 a point to each team for halved matches.

The first two days will feature a foursomes and fourball matches, with the order of play determined through mutual agreement by the captains.

Good, Bad and Ugly are a match between two man teams consisting of the following formats:  1/3 fourball, 1/3 fourball counting only the worst ball, and 1/3 foursomes play

Foursomes matches involve two-man teams, with each playing one ball. The players take alternate shots until the hole is completed. The lower of the two scores wins the hole.

If the same amount of shots on both sides are recorded, the hole is halved.

One player will hit the tee shot on odd-numbered holes with his team mate teeing off first on the even-numbered holes.

Handicap allowance: The allowance for the higher-handicapped side is 50 percent of the difference between the combined Course Handicap of the members of each side.  The lower handicapped side competes at scratch.

Fourball matches involve two-man teams with each player playing his own ball and completing the hole. The best score of the four wins the hole.

Handicap allowance: The Course Handicap of all four players is reduced by the Course Handicap of the player with the lowest handicap, who then plays from scratch. Each of the three other players is allowed 100 percent of the difference.

In singles matches, the result is decided when one player leads by more holes than there are holes left to play.

Team captains submit their order of play before each round of matches to an appointed tournament official. The lists from each captain are then matched, resulting in the pairings.

Handicap allowance: The higher-handicapped player receives the full difference in Course Handicap between the two players; the lower-handicapped player plays from scratch.

Entry fees will be $100 per man and with all winnings going to the victorious team.

Teams will be chosen after our September event.
