TEAM ROSTER:

  • Team Captains must have their lineups in the Portal no later than 12 p.m. on Wednesday, June 28, 2023.

 

FORMAT:

  • 18-hole four-ball net match play, utilizing the current Handicap Index as of Monday, June 26, 2023.
  • Awards will be given to the who accumulate the most four-ball points in total
  • In the event of a tie, the total points earned by Club A’s teams 1 and 2 shall be compared to the total points earned by Club B’s teams 1 and 2.  The Club with the most points wins the tiebreaker and the match.  If a tie still exists, the total points earned by each club’s teams 3 and 4 will be compared.  If a tie still exists, this same procedure will be used for teams 5 and 6, then 7 and 8 until a winner is determined.

 

PRACTICE ROUNDS:

  • Players may make arrangements for practice rounds at their own expense by contacting Aviara GC at (760) 448-1234. Practice rounds are available at the course’s discretion and based upon availability. Please identify yourself as a participant in the SCGA Women's Team Play Championship when calling
  • Practice rounds are a privilege, not a right. The SCGA works with a variety of facilities throughout the course of the year, all of which have unique policies and procedures when it comes to practice rounds. These opportunities will be provided at the sole discretion of the host facility.
  • We are guests and must follow all facility policies and guidelines when on property. Behavior during practice rounds will be subject to the SCGA Code of Conduct.

 

STARTING TIMES AND PAIRINGS: 

  • Starting times and pairings will be e-mailed to players and posted online at scga.org one week in advance of the championship.
  • The Championship starting times will begin at 12:00 p.m. and go through 12:42 p.m. alternating between eight and nine minute intervals.  Additionally, there are NO tee times available for alternates to play.
  • Lead groups should plan to be at their assigned tee 10 minutes in advance of their starting time. Subsequent groups are encouraged to arrive once the preceding group has teed off.
