League Rules of Play

Season – April 17 through September 22. There will be two scrambles, dates to be announced.

Courses – Your choice of Chandler Park, Golden Hawk or St. Clair Shores. Up to five times per work week.

Rounds – Generally 18 holes, but 9 hole scores are allowed and will be combined.

Tees – All handicaps are based on Middle Tees. This is the default setting for all Golfers. However, Golfers can select tees of their own choosing. Please notify the Handicapper if you will be playing the forward tees all season. If you normally play from the middle tees, but play one or more rounds from the Forward tees, please indicate this on your scorecard. Using the Red Tee on #6 and the Gold Tee on #10 at Golden Hawk is allowed, as in the past.

Scorecards – Dated and identified with golfer’s last name. Deposit in League boxes in the clubhouse at each course. Remember to enter each golfers name on the sheet in the box. Cards will be collected at the end of each week. Scores are entered on a hole by hole basis.

Handicaps – Because of the change is software, all handicaps for this year start at zero. Handicaps will be computed after three rounds. Next year, handicaps will carry over. New members must shoot three rounds to get a handicap.

The last 20 rounds will be used to compute your handicap. One HI and one LOW will be discarded.

Handicaps are normalized to Forward Chandler Park tees. That will show as Home Course on reports but ignore it.

Handicaps will be updated at the end of each month.

Flights – Again, we will have three flights, based on handicaps.

Gimmes – Suggest 12 inches or less. No gimmies allowed on par or birdie putts.
