Suggestions for Conducting Qualifying Rounds
There are several ways to conduct team qualifying within a club. The Executive Board recommends that each club decides which method their members wish to use. The Board offers the following suggestions.
Clubs should keep in mind that the multi-members may enter the club qualifying rounds at all the clubs in which they hold membership. Therefore, when deciding on a method to be used for qualifying, we recommend that the multi-members have an opportunity to participate and that this be taken into consideration.
Each club may decide on the method used to qualify. The following are only suggestions. Members may sign up as individuals or as partners.
SUGGESTED TYPES OF TOURNAMENTS::
1. |
A Low Net Tournament with the four low net players selected to the team. |
2. |
A combination of low gross and low net. The two low gross and the two |
low net scores being selected as the team. |
3. |
Better Ball of Partners. Two low-net pairs are selected as the team. |
HANDICAP: 100 % or 95 % with a maximum index of 40.4. The Finals are played using 95 % of the Course Handicap
Adequate time should be arranged for posting the signup sheet for tournament qualifying. Three to four weeks prior to the first round of play should be a comfortable time frame. This is a good time to emphasize the dates of the Area Qualifying and the Championship for participants to be certain they will be available.
Many clubs choose their team from two to four rounds of play.
If you or your members have questions regarding team qualifying, please feel free to call, write, or email the Team Play Director
