FORMAT: Individual Net. Contestants will play their own ball for 18 holes and will be assigned to separate flights based off their handicap index and will receive 95% of their course handicap. A player will compete based on his/her April 14th index or tournament index, whichever is lower. The top finishers in each flight will receive gift card money to Golf Mart stores. Players are required to play from the designated tees, unless previously arranged and approved by the committee.
*This event is the 1st of 2 “mini majors” in which a 50% point bonus will be awarded for all places.
*A separate division for players who are members of any NCGA eClub will be established. This division is solely for the purposes of determining players who will qualify for the NCGA Associate Club Net Amateur sectional round. Gift cards will NOT be given out based on this division. The top players will advance with paid entry into sectional qualifying.
TEES: (Alternate tee upon request if more than 72 hours before the event, otherwise tee assignment is required)
Men: White tees (~6,412 yards, par 70; 71.4/123)
*Men may request to play Gold tees (~5800 yards) but note the par value of these tees for men is 68, not 70

Play will begin at 9:00 a.m. as a shotgun start. Registration will begin at 7:30 a.m. at the NCGA tent. Please be at your cart at 8:45 a.m. to go over announcements. There you will go over scoring and other important procedures with the starter.
PACE OF PLAY & RULES: Please be sure to keep up with the group in front of you. Groups that miss their 18-hole checkpoint (finishing over the designated time and more than 14 minutes behind the group in front of them) are subject to a two-stroke penalty. In order to keep an adequate pace of play, players are asked to pick up once maximum score has been reached on a respective hole; failure to do so will result in a two-stroke penalty.
The Rules of Golf as approved by the USGA and the R & A are in effect. It is the player’s responsibility to have a working knowledge of the rules. For more information regarding the rules, players can visit the NCGA’s website: https://ncga.org/rules/
MAXIMUM SCORE: A gross 9 on any hole.
SERIOUS MISCONDUCT & DRESS CODE: A player who is removed from the course for Serious Misconduct will result in a loss of all funds and potentially a suspension from future events. Players and Caddies are to dress appropriately. For more information, please refer to the NCGA Weekend Net Tour Hard Card.
PLAYER OF THE YEAR: The top overall net scores will receive points on the Weekend Net Tour Player of the Year list for their finish, please look at the points distribution table on the Weekend Net Tour page for point allocations. A 50% point bonus will apply.
CARTS: Shared carts are used by the course for all players. Players may take turns driving or may walk if they prefer.
DRIVING RANGE AND PRACTICE GREEN: The driving range and practice green are available for use 30 minutes prior to a player’s tee time. To avoid overcrowding and to give everyone the opportunity to use these areas, players are to limit the amount of time at each area to a maximum of 15 minutes.
SKINS: An optional skins game was offered in registration. If you would still like to participate in skins, please let staff know no later than 72 hours before the event, so an electronic invoice can be sent to you. Players must pay the invoice prior to the start of the event. No cash will be taken the day of the event.
GIFT CARD DISTRIBUTION: The top performers in each flight and skins’ winners will win gift cards to Amazon.com. These will be distributed by email and will be done in batches, so gift card monies may not be received for up to 4 weeks after the event. Please be sure your email in Golf Genius is up to date.
TIES: Ties for gift card prizes will be settled using USGA recommendations of a card off: best back 9 net score, best back 6 (net), best back 3 (net), followed by best 18th hole (net), finally, tie-break by coin-flip.
