Each team will play six nine-hole matches against all teams within their flight. Teams will be assigned to 13 flights of four teams each. The assignment of flights will be determined by the total handicap index of the team. Maximum handicap allowed will be 36. All players must have a current USGA Handicap (scores posted within the last six months). Handicap indexes will be verified in advance for all players. The Tournament Committee reserves the right to adjust handicaps based on exceptional tournament performance during the event. Each hole won is worth one point, with a half point going to each team in a tie. Flight winners will be the team with the most points won. Each match will be worth a maximum of nine points. A maximum of five points will be won in the event of an opponent s team forfeit. Team Handicaps Each player may carry a 36 handicap maximum based on the tee that each player will choose. For the tournament each player may choose either the BLUE tees (6074 yards) or the WHITE tees ( 5478 yards), and once this tee selection is made the player must play from this tee for the remainder of the golf tournament. Both players DO NOT have to play from the same tee. Individual handicaps (on the same team) that differ by more than 10 strokes will be adjusted downward by 10 percent for the golf tournament.
