Interclub rules:

 

  • Handicap Allowance 80% for 2 Man matches, 100% for individual matches

  • Stroke off the low handicap

  • Each match is worth 2 points. Ties are worth 1 point.  The winning team will get one tenth of a point for each hole the match is won by at the completion of the 18-hole round.

  • 3 Points is the maximum allowable for any one match. No-shows on Singles matches will result in 2.0 points. In a team match if Player A no-shows Player B will represent the side by himself.

  • Summer rules will apply at both courses.

  • Play will be from the WHITE tees at Topstone or GOLD(forward) tees if age eligible.  Play will be from the GOLD tees at Blackledge or SILVER(forward) tees if age eligible.
  • Our team is the RED team they are the BLUE team.  Ideally I would like everyone to wear RED SHIRTS Saturday at Blackledge, and WHITE SHIRTS Sunday at Topstone.
  • Please realize that you are committed to playing both days.  There is a lot of preparation that goes into setting these matches up and I am counting on you all to play when scheduled and not drop out last minute or no show!
  • Lunch will be provided each day after play by the Club hosting that day.
  • Each of you will be playing 1 individual match and 1 2-man team match. 
  • Unfortunately because of how this needed to be set up, your Saturday round at Blackledge will not count toward Ringers. 
  • I WANT TO WIN!  Topstone has had our number in the past and I'm expecting to turn things around this year.  Bring your "A" game and have fun!

 

Note:  The local rule for the Alternative to Stroke and Distance WILL NOT be applied in these matches at either course

 

 

Local rule at Topstone:

Rule 16.1 D relief for ball on putting green

If your ball is on the putting green and there's interference by an abnormal ground conditions such as an aerration hole your reference point is the nearest point of complete relief and the ball must be placed on the nearest point of relief.  Interference does not exist if the aeration hole only interferes with the players line of play.
