Nine Hole Qualifying Competitions (CONGU - Unified Handicapping System Clause 22) were introduced to help players who cannot, for one reason or another, always play in weekend competitions and will be particularly attractive to members in the summer evenings. These competitions are open to all members and will be played as mixed Stableford competitions.
Category 1 players may participate and his/her score will be recorded in the Player Handicap Record but the score will be disregarded for handicap purposes.
The format for Nine-Hole Qualifying competitions is Stableford with a 'neutral' 18 points for the nine unplayed holes automatically added to the Nine-Hole Stableford score.
The course for this competition will be holes 1 to 9 which will have a 70 SSS (Yellow Tees) for the men and 71 SSS (Red Tees) for the ladies.
There is a formula for working out a player's handicap for this competition and we have been supplied with Conversion Charts by the EGU and the EWGA.
The first competition is on Tuesday 26th April and will continue once a month until August. Tee-off times will be around 17:30 to 18:00hrs giving plenty of time to complete the round in daylight hours. The starting times will be dependent on the number of entrants.
Entry will be by £3 stamp placed on the entry sheet on the notice board and cards for the competition should be collected from the Pro-Shop on the day.
Proposed Tuesday dates are: - April 26, May 24, June 22, July 12 and August 9.
