Team composition:

Teams will be 4 members strong.  We will place entrants into groups by handicap and randomly draw from each group to create the teams.

Tournament season:

The season is scheduled to run for 6 months beginning with the first tournament in April (currently April 05) and concluding after the last tournament in September (Currently September 27). 

If there are no cancellations, we will have a season of 27 rounds.

If we have more than two cancellations the season will be extended as follows:

Tournament cancellations:

We will not reschedule the first two (2) cancellations, making the season 25 tournaments. Subsequent cancellations will be rescheduled into October in hopes of having a 25 tournament season. 

In no case will the season be extended into November. 

The schedule is listed on the back of this flyer or on the "2010 Schedule" tab.

Eligibility:

To be eligible to participate in TEAM GOLF, you must pay the entry fee ($25.00) to the TEAM GOLF director (Gary Going) prior to the start of play on March 22. 

Teams will be drawn in the grille area following the March 22 tournament. 

Each team will then elect a captain and choose a team name. 

Captains will provide the team names to the TEAM GOLF director before or at the March 29 tournament.

Accumulating Team points:

Team points will be accumulated from the results of each tournament over the season.

Teams will receive points equal to the amount of money won by its top 3 members at each tournament; e.g., winnings of $23.15 would be 23.15 points.

Team standings and points will be posted to our web site and emailed to participants after each tournament.

Payouts:

Payouts will be made to about 20% of the teams.  Should we have fewer than 8 teams, the winning team will split the entire pot.  With 8-12 teams the split will be 60-40. The complete chart on payouts may be found on the "Payouts" tab.

Replacement of team members:

A team member may be replaced under the following conditions:

1.     A member cannot continue due to illness or injury;

2.     A team request due to a team member's “non-participation” in tournaments with all other team captains agreeing that a replacement is necessary.

-- Under no condition may a player be replaced after the 20th round has been played.

 --The new member will assume all rights in sharing of any team winnings.

The new member will be taken from the waiting list in sequence of signup.

The original member will be refunded his $25 by the new member if:

1.    The replacement was due to illness or injury, and

2.    if the replacement occurs during the first two months of the season, i.e., prior to the first tournament in June, 2010.
