Event Description

 

Team Drawings

Teams are drawn on the basis of strength of field. The names of the members playing in the event are arranged from lowest handicap to highest. This list is then divided into 4 groups. The first group being the best players, this is the "A" group. The next group would then be the next best players, this would be the "B" group. The "C" & "D" groups are drawn in a similar manor.

Any event where the players receive their full handicap the teams are blind drawn from that point, with an A, B, C, & D player on each team. Any event where handicaps are not used in the scoring (Scrambles for example), the teams are drawn on a high/low basis. High/Low procedure is when drawing a team the best available A player is teamed with the lowest available B player, then the best available C player and finely the lowest available D player.

Any event indicated as a "pick your own team" event will have certain team makeup rules. Examples of these rules could include a Maximum total team handicap and/or a maximum number of players on a team of a certain handicap or better. These rules would be posted on the signup sheet at the clubhouse.
