League Play
The Amherstview Men's League will begin Tuesday, May 24th. The regular season will run for 12 straight weeks and be followed by playoffs. League play will take place on Tuesdays and can be played anytime during the day or evening. It is preferred that you play with at least one other person in the league to attest to your score, but you may play with a non-league member if that's all that is available. No solo players will be allowed to submit a score.
League Format
The league will consist of teams of approximately 14-15 players. Each team will be assigned a team captain responsible for naming the team and drafting the players to be on the team. Although you will be assigned to a team, you are not required to play with your teammates and can play with anyone participating in the league or not in the league if that's all that is available. The teams are strictly for scoring purposes, which is important as we are trying to build camaraderie within the league.
Each week two gross scores and three net scores will count towards the overall team score. This format allows for players to post their own scores while still keeping the focus on the team aspect. The regular season is a team vs. team format; teams will receive 10 points for a win, five points for a tie, and zero points for a loss. The program awards one participation point for every player that shows up regardless of their performance on the golf course. A maximum of 10 participation points per team will be awarded each week. This feature will hopefully encourage team members to come out and participate and support their team.
Our online scoring program automatically updates the individual scores, team scores, and standings and maintains each player's separate Men's League Handicap. This is all done in real-time. This is great for a couple of reasons:
You can sit around the clubhouse and watch the results of your team and see how they are making out or check the results from home. You can see how you did when compared to the entire field.
If there is a scoring mistake on our end, you will notice this right away, and we can make the necessary changes.
The League website will be published in the clubhouse once the league begins.
Throughout the season, we will be holding feature nights for our Men's League. These nights will incorporate food specials from "At The Turn," closest to the pin contests etc.

Tee Times
The Amherstview Golf Club Men's League is a 9-hole league. You must contact the pro shop or TEE ON to book your tee times.
Weather
In the event of questionable weather, a minimum of 50 percent of the field will need to submit scores for the week to count. If 50 percent of the field does not submit scores, we will deem Men's Night a rainout, and the week will be discarded. Please make every effort to play as it is difficult to judge the weather changes throughout the day, making it hard to determine whether to cancel.
