Welcome to the 32nd annual Gorge Vale Conquer Cancer Classic. The first person listed on the scorecard is the captain. Please share the following information with your team & make sure you note your team number.  This is your table number for the banquet. 

 

FORMAT: BEST BALL of FOUR STROKE PLAY (Using Stableford scoring)

  • Each players handicap as of April 22nd is noted by their name on the scorecard
  • The team captain MUST record a gross score for each member of the team for every hole. If a player is unable to complete a hole, then record a 9 opposite that player’s name.  The Committee’s software will compute the stableford points for each player on each hole automatically based upon each player’s gross score, the rating for the hole & the handicap used.
  • Sink all putts for balls that will count.
  • To encourage faster play please pick up if you are out of the hole (if your score will not count)
