Competition Rules:
- Members must have entered for the competition before 27th March 2023 when the draw will be made.
- The first member of each pair has the choice of venue. The Final should be played at a mutually-agreed ‘neutral’ venue.
- Any costs (ie green fees) should be shared between the players.
- The format is 18 hole matchplay, using the difference between the Course Handicaps calculated from current Handicap Indexes.
- Both members are responsible for arranging the game by the stated deadline for the round. If the game is not played by the stated date, a two-week extension to the deadline for a particular round is usually granted by the President and Competition Organiser. Further extensions will only be made in exceptional circumstances. If the game cannot be played, pairings should agree a mutually-acceptable winner, otherwise a winner will be decided by an independent coin toss.
- Please email results asap to the Competition Organiser (Peter Bollands) for recording on the website to inform other members.
