REFUND POLICY:

ELIGIBILITY:
Entries are open to any amateur golfer, male or female, holding an active GAM/GHIN Handicap Index® at the time of registration and competition from an authorized GAM member club. Both team members must be GAM members. If you are not a GAM member, you must register for a GAM membership HERE.
SCHEDULE OF EVENTS:
Beginning February 8, players will have until March 10th to complete both rounds (Orchard Lake CC, Arthur Hills GC at The Highlands). Players do not have to complete both rounds in a single session, however they must complete both rounds before the competition closes on March 10th at 5:00pm.
FORMAT: Two-Person Team Four-Ball (Best-Ball). Teams will have the option to choose between three sets of tees when registering: Championship, Regular, and Forward. BOTH GOLFERS ON A TEAM MUST PLAY IN THE SAME DIVISION.
After registration closes, teams will be flighted based on their combined team course handicap.
Putting will be set to automatic two-putts outside of 8/ft when the ball has come to rest on the green. Approach shots (on the green) within 8/ft or closer to the hole will be scored as an automatic gimmie.
Mulligans are not permitted.
TEE SETS:
| Orchard Lake CC | Male | Female |
| Championship Tees | 6,810y | 5,904y |
| Regular Tees | 6,148y | 5,582y |
| Forward Tees | 5,582y | 5,325y |
| The Highlands at Harbor Springs - Hills Course | Male | Female |

As a reminder both golfers on a team must play from the same tee set. The tee set you choose will be used for both rounds; you will not be able to switch tees in between rounds. Please choose the tee set that best suits both golfers if you and your partner usually play from different tee sets.
SCORING:
Gross scores from both rounds will be combined to populate the final leaderboard. GAM will gather your team score from TrackMan when your team has completed a round. The GAM will then upload your scores to the Golf Genius leaderboard. The Golf Genius leaderboard will not be visible until after the close of tournament registration (February 20th). Scores may take 24-48 hours to become visible on the Golf Genius leaderboard.
TRACKMAN SIMULATORS:
The GAM Winter Series can be played at any TrackMan simulator in the world. This includes TrackMan simulators at private golf courses. Teams can only play this competition on official TrackMan simulators NOT at TrackMan ranges.
