Score Cards and Handicaps
  • Please make sure to sign your own card and the card you’re marking.

In both the stroke play and match play, boys play from the white tees and girls play from the red tees.  For avoidance of doubt, the best 8 scratch scores will qualify regardless of the difference in Standard Scratch between white and red tees.  The dates and times are as set out in the fixture card.

  • Both players/couples have a responsibility to ensure that their match is played by the closing date.  Make sure you contact you opponent early.
  • Singles matches are played off the full difference between handicaps and foursomes half of the combined handicaps.  Boys play off the white tees and girls off the red tees.  When girls are playing against boys, girls should add two strokes to their handicaps (before the combined handicap is halved in foursomes).  This is to allow for the difference in the Standard Scratch Scores (SSS). The men's stroke index should be used. 
  • Halved match – any match ending all square after 18 holes should be played off over the first 3 holes and, if still all square, sudden death.
