Dear Parents and Juniors

 

We had a fabulous day on Sunday of Pinehurst golf in the Cayman Islands!  The turnout and excitement around the event sets us up well for the fall ahead.  

 

 

 

The tournament wouldn't have been possible without our sponsor - Red Sail Sports.  Thank you to them for generous support of junior golf and fun family activities.  Please remember them for outings when visitor season kicks off in a few months.  

 

We would like to recognize the staff at North Sound for their allocation of tee times, support and  guidance all weekend.  And to our team of volunteers, thank you for bringing smiles to so many faces over the course of the day, especially on the first tee as they started off on their rounds!

 

Full Results and a Photo Gallery of the weekend are posted on the Event Portal at https://www.golfgenius.com/ggid/2025jrsr

Pinehurst Format:

  • Second Shot Selection: After the second shots, the team chooses the ball in the better position and play that one ball from there onwards. 
  • Alternate Shot: The player whose second shot was not selected plays the third shot, and from there, the team plays alternate shot until the ball is holed. 
  1. 18 Holes Stroke Play
  2. Tee Shots: Both players on the team hit a tee shot on each hole. 
  3. Switch Balls: Players switch balls for their second shots, meaning Player A will play Player B's drive, and Player B will play Player A's drive. 

Team Composition:

One Junior Golfer (18 and under) and one Senior Golfer (19 and over)

Team handicap is calculated as 60% of lower handicap and 40% of higher handicap

Each player must be a CIGA Member and have a valid handicap established in GHIN.  Handicap calculation will be done based on which tees each Player has chosen to play.

 

Flights will be created based on team handicaps:

Low Handicap, Mid Handicap, High Handicap

Break points will be announced when tournament draw is released.

Gross and Net prizes will be awarded in each flight.
