Competition Rules for Winter Programme 2009 – 2010

John Haigh — Tue, 24 Nov 2009 21:59:59 +0000

The Winter Season will be ‘split’ into two halves, the 1^st half will run from Saturday October 17^th 2009 until Saturday December 20^th 2009 (inclusive), the 2^nd half will run from Saturday January 2^nd. 2010 until Saturday 20^th March 2010 (inclusive).

For the 2^nd half of the Winter programme (January – March 2010), members handicaps will revert back to the same as they started with in October 2009.

Entry Fees (paid to the Professional) will be £10:00 per team (£2:50 per. Person) on Saturday and the same on Sunday.

Members will be eligible to play on both Saturday and Sunday, but they will only be allowed to win two shares of the prize monies for that weekend‘s competition, NOT points.

If a member wins points on both days, the highest points won on one day only will be awarded.

Teams may comprise of 4 Full members.

Junior members with a bona-fide handicap may play in the Winter Competition, but only with a MINIMUM of two full members.

Winning Team members each receive 10 Points + 50 % of the weekend’s ‘pot’,

Runners Up Team members each receive 8 Points + 30 % of the weekend’s ‘pot’,

Third place Team members each receive 6 Points + 20 % of the weekend’s ‘pot’,

Fourth place Team members each receive 4 Points,

Fifth place Team members each receive 2 Points.

10% of each weekends total fees (before the above deductions) will be “pooled” and go forward to the Order of Merit Competition, again ‘run‘ in two halves as above.

Members points will be accrued for each half of the Winter Season, the member(s) with most points at the end of December 2009 (1^st half) and the end of March 2010 (2^nd half) will win the Order of Merit monies “pooled” each week for that half.

The “Order of Merit” monies shall be allocated as follows:-

Winning Member receives 35 % of the total ‘pot’,

Second place member receives 25 % of the total ‘pot’,

Third placed member receives 15 % of the total ‘pot’,

Fourth placed member receives 15 % of the total ‘pot’,

Fifth placed member receives 10 % of the total ‘pot’.

Winning Team members will each have their handicaps reduced by 1 (one) full point,

Runners – Up will each have their handicaps reduced by 0. 8,

Third placed members will each have their handicaps reduced by 0. 6,

Fourth placed members will each have their handicaps reduced by 0. 4,

Fifth placed team members will each have their handicaps reduced by 0. 2.

Handicap adjustments (as stated above) will be made automatically following each weekend’s competition, however, the Handicap and Competitions Committee shall reduce members handicaps further if a team or team member is successful in both the Saturday and Sunday competition.

Should adverse weather conditions on Saturday evening/ Sunday morning dictate that the ‘Sunday’ Course is different from that played on Saturday, the Sunday competition will not count for that weekend’s competition.

Each weekend’s competition will be ’run’ by the Handicap & Competitions Committee, in the event of any dispute whatsoever, their decision will be final.
