A message from Ann Hall, our handicap and Match Play Convenor, regarding Match Play:

Welcome to the start of another match play season.  The matches are now well underway and many have moved on to the next rung on the ladder.    Upon reviewing the submitted cards I would like to remind everyone to enter your adjusted score in the computer as a 'Tournament' score.  Also, you must enter your scores for all 9 or 18 holes on the card, even if the match is over, and total your score.  It is difficult for me to check the totals if the last few holes of the match have not been entered. 

If you are unable to complete your match due to weather the following rules apply:

Page 50, Rule 6(d) says:

Play must be resumed from where it was discontinued, even if resumption occurs on a subsequent day. 
Exception in match play:
Players discontinuing match play by agreement are not subject to disqualification, unless by so doing the competition is delayed.
 This on page 49, under Rule 6(a).

If you would like to play your matches without anyone joining you be sure to add 'guests' to your tee time if you are booking on the Chronogolf system or contact the Pro Shop and they will 'block' the other tee spots.

And last, but certainly not least, for those in the Putting competition, be sure to have the Pro Shop set up the 'green' immediately prior to your match.

I've certainly seen an improvement in the scoring so far, thanks to those 'friendly' dot's and the +'s and the -'s.
Keep up the good work.
Thanks
Ann
