Format

 

The format for the Corporate Charity Challenge is a 4 Person Scramble using Net Team scores to declare the "Champion Golf Team" for 2024.  The Champion Team will win the Green Jackets and "Bragging Rights" for the next year!

 

Tees

 

All Men will play from the BLUE tees, those with a Handicap of 24+ or aged 70 & Older can play from the WHITE tees.  All Ladies will play from the YELLOW tees.

 

Handicaps

 

Team Handicaps determined using 25% of the average of all four team members.  The course playing handicap will be added for all four players and divided by 8 to calculate the team handicap rounded to the nearest hundredths.  Teams with a combined playing handicap total of 50 or less will be adjusted down.

 

General Rules

 

  1. Each player must use at least THREE tee shots.
  2. All Players tee off and choose the best ball position of the four shots.  The golfer whose shot is selected "stands off"  while the other three players hit the next shot from within one club length and must be no closer to the hole.  This process continues until the ball is on the green where all four players putt.
  3. Post your gross score in both the Live Scoring App along with the printed scorecard after each hole.  Your Team Handicap will be deducted at the conclusion of play. 
  4. REMEMBER, when your shot is selected do not play the next one, except on the putting green where all four players putt.

Ties

 

A Closest to the Pin playoff on Hole # 18 will be used to break a tie for the Overall Champion.  For all other ties the USGA method of the Best Back 9, 6, 3, 1 holes will be used. 

 

Returning of Scorecard

 

Scorecards must be signed and returned to the Pro Shop staff in the clubhouse area immediately after play.  A player's scorecard is deemed officially returned when the player has left the scoring area and given the scorecard to a tournament official or staff member.  The printed scorecard is the official scorecard and must be signed and returned.  The live scoring app leaderboard is for information purpose only during play. We ask that teams mark their score in the app correctly after each hole to maintain accuracy for all participants.
