FORMAT: Individual Chicago points. This format compares a player’s score, in points, to their Quota points which is based off their course handicap. Players will be given a point value base on their gross scores for each hole as follows: Eagle – 8 pts, Birdie – 4 pts, Par – 2 pts, Bogey – 1 pts, Double Bogey or worse – 0 pts.  There is a set number of “quota points”. A player receiving 0 strokes has a quota of 39 points. A player’s “quota points” for the round is calculated by subtracting their course handicap from 39 points. The top players are those who “outscore” their quota of points by the greatest number (i.e. if your quota is 30 and you score 35, versus a player whose quota is 33 and they score 36, you have beat them by 2 points)

 

Men: Flights 1: Blue Tees (6,470 yards); Flights 2-4: White Tees (6,052 yards)

(All) Women: Gold Tees (5,461 yards)                      

 

Tee times will begin at 8:00 a.m. off the No. 1 tee of the Ocean Course. Please be at the No. 1 tee ready for play 10 minutes prior to your start time. There you will exchange scorecards with your fellow-competitors, and be able to pay into an optional skins game. The top 20 overall net scores will receive placement points on the Weekend Net Tour Player of the Year list for his/her finish, while the remaining players will receive participation points for completing an 18-hole round. Players who do not have an established numeric handicap index are ineligible to win prizes, skins, or placement points.

 

PACE OF PLAY & RULES: Please be sure to keep up with the group in front of you. Groups that are “out of position” (i.e. 14 minutes behind the group in front of you) are subject to a two-stroke penalty.  In order to keep an adequate pace of play, players are asked to pick up once the max score for a respective hole has been reached. Players who do not pick up when they have reached max score and have their group fall out of position because of their failure to follow this policy are subject to a two-stroke penalty.

 

Max Scores:  Max score for this event is a gross double-bogey. However, players may play out until their ESC score is reached on a respective hole (as long as time permits) and should record it as such.   

 

Other than the max score rule, the USGA Rules of Golf are in effect. It is the player’s responsibility to have a working knowledge of the rules. For more information regarding the rules of golf players can visit the NCGA’s website: https://ncga.org/rules/

 

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.

 

DRESS CODE & COURSE ETIQUETTE:  Players are to wear proper golf attire: no denim, no cut-off clothing, collared shirts, hats off inside the clubhouse, etc. Players should behave in an appropriate manner and avoid using foul language. The NCGA does have the right to remove anyone for not abiding by these rules at any time. Being removed from property would result in the loss of all funds.
