HANDICAPS:The league administrator will keep handicaps. Established handicaps will carry over from the previous season. Handicaps will be removed from the system after a full season of inactivity. Team handicaps will be figured by taking 96% of your best 3 of 5. Until 3 scores are recorded an average of scores will be used. Handicaps will be adjusted each week but not once the playoffs begin.New teams will use the chart posted in the clubhouse to figure their handicap. If the opposing team has an established handicap they will use the one provided. 6 strokes is the maximum handicap differential between teams.
STARTING TIMES: Both team members must check in at the pro shop and have paid the appropriate fees prior to the beginning of each match. Matches will begin at 5:30 except in April, August, & September when they will begin at 5:15. If there are open holes on the nine the match is to be played warm up holes are permitted (up to 45 minutes before starting time). Anyone wishing to play earlier will pay a special rate to be determined by the pro shop. Please respect golfers finishing up their rounds. If a team is late they lose all holes missed plus they will not be eligible for the point total. Due to circumstances beyond our control, league play may sometimes start a few minutes late (an outing taking more time than anticipated). Thank you for your patience.
