Anybody new will play off their club handicap, if they don’t have a club handicap the sponsor will decide what handicap they play off

Lowest handicapper, after the leaderboard adjustments, with a club handicap will have the chance to re-value their handicap back to their club handicap, if they do then all other golfers will move up the same amount of strokes:

Do they want to do re set the handicaps if so how many strokes are given back, this is to be reviewed on an annual basis

Stableford is the choice of play

Morning game will be picked by the winner of the last event, if they are not there then it will be picked by the second placed from the last event & so on

9 Guests

Any guest this season will pay the same price & added into all prize pots & will become part of the leader board as per last season

10 Last event

In reverse leader board order 

If the players are tied on the leader board it will be decided by the count back on leaderboard is best finish if all 4 are the same then the 5th finish then 6th finish, If that is even then the best finish in the last event then the 5th and so on.

11 Any other business  

Look at the cost of getting new shirts, club maybe to help out with the cost of them, Marc to get some costings

Remove current members if they have not played any events in the last two years. They are always welcome back but would come back on their current club handicap if they don’t have one they would be given one to play off

Last is a note on slow play

We need to keep an eye on slow play as this is something all clubs are keen on. If we feel we are not keeping up with the game in front or holding up the game behind it is up to all the group to speed up. Please encourage the group to speed up.

Thanks,
