We play a 2 man best ball. The ball selected to be played should be marked and then played within 1 club length of the mark. The ball needs to be played in the same cut of grass as the mark. No improvement of lie.
​
Balls on greens shall be marked and played within 1 putter head length.
​
Point of entry for OB or in a water hazard. Penalty stroke assessed. The ball can be placed back or sideways but no closer to the hole. The drop should be agreed upon by both teams. No provisional balls will be played.
​
If a ball is believed to be not found without being in a water hazard or OB and provisional balls played, then an original ball is found in the process, the original ball can be played with no problem. There is not a need to announce your intentions, it is assumed. The goal is to have fun every match.
​
Any matches that cannot be agreed upon by the last week of match play - the committee will determine 3 days for teams to pick to play. ALL matches need to be completed for seeding of playoffs. If a suitable day cannot be agreed upon by both teams each will lose. 1.5 pts from their total points in standings for ea. outstanding match. Bottom line COMPLETE all your matches, it will determine playoff seedings.
​
All teams are responsible to enter the scores on the league website asap. This will ensure up to date standing. Remember to record score, pts and birdies as there are payouts for birdies at the end of the season. No teams should enter a score or determine point distribution for matches not played. Please complete all matches scheduled. Teams that do not complete the matches will have pts deducted per the rules and not asked to return next year.
​
If a match has been scheduled, it should then be played as agreed upon by both teams. Any team that forfeits a match will not be playing in the league the following year.
