Little Dilly Member-Guest Golf Tournament Official Rules and Regulations

This document serves as the official rules and regulations for participation in the Annual Little Dilly Member-Guest Golf Tournament. By registering for the tournament, all participants agree to adhere to the following rules and regulations set forth by the Tournament Committee.

I. Tournament Overview  

The Annual Little Dilly Member-Guest Golf Tournament aims to provide a competitive and enjoyable environment for members and their guests. The event will foster camaraderie and sportsmanship while celebrating the love of golf. The tournament will be capped at 96 teams to ensure efficient logistics and manageable participation. The tournament committee will oversee the implementation of all rules, manage disputes, and ensure compliance with bylaws. All participants must comply with the bylaws to maintain the integrity and fairness of the tournament. 

 

II. Format Overview

  1. 96 teams will be divided into 16 flights. The flights will be comprised of 6 teams that will compete in a round robin schedule against each team in their respective flight. The tournament will consist of five - 9-hole matches. Teams will compete in Fourball Match play where points are awarded per hole. One point for a win and ½ point for a tie. A bonus point will be awarded to the team with the most points at the end of the match. If the match is tied, both teams will be awarded a ½ point. After the five - 9-hole matches, the team with the most points will be awarded the Flight Winner. If there is a tie, head-to-head will break the tie. If head-to-head is tied, a Chip-off will break the tie.
  2. Tournament Derby to determine the Little Dilly Champion.  All Flight winners along with the two wild card winners (Two teams with the most points that didn’t win their flight, a wildcard tie will be settled by chip off), will compete in a Tee Box Alternating Shot Derby.  
  3. The two teams with the lowest point totals (including ties) of the field of 96 will be relegated to the waitlist the following year.  Disqualified teams are not counted.
  4. Handicaps will be wheeled, then strokes will fall based on the scorecard.  All Derby Participants will meet on hole number 1. The Teammate with the lowest Handicap Index will be the player that tees off first. If both players are the same H.I. then the member will be the first to play. The Derby will take place on holes, 1,2,12,13,14,15,16,17,18.  If there is a tie after a hole, a chip-off will break the tie, except after hole 18. After hole 18, if the two remaining teams are still tied, a sudden death playoff will take place on holes 10 and 18 until a winner has been determined.
  5. The USGA Rules of Golf will govern all play unless stated in the bylaws or local rules.
