CONDITIONS OF PLAY – ENTRANCE FEE $20 PER PLAYER

Foursomes: Two players play as partners and use one ball. The players hit off alternately from the tee and thereafter strike the ball alternately during the play of each hole. If either player incurs a penalty stroke it does not alter the rotation of play.
The competition will be played according to the ‘Rules of Golf’ and competitors must be members of Leura Golf Club and hold an AGU handicap. Members are reminded that this is a club championship event and members’ attention is directed to By-Law 7 – see below. For the purposes of these Conditions of Play “Club Championships” where used in the by-law means “Men’s Foursome Championships”.
The competition will consist of two rounds of 18 holes foursomes stroke play from the blue tees. Preferred lies in accordance with the Local Rules will apply.
For Round 2 the order of play will be reversed from that of Round 1.
Round 2 tee times shall commence at 8.28 am, the B graders to hit off first followed by the A graders. Pair groups shall be decided by the Match Committee and if there shall be an odd number of pairs an A grade pair may be grouped with a B grade pair.
The handicap of each pair will be one half of their combined daily handicaps applicable at the commencement of Round 1.
The competition will be played in two grades, namely

A grade – pair handicaps of 16 or less
B grade – pair handicaps of more than 16, 36 being the maximum handicap.

The championship winners in each grade will be the pair who returns the best aggregate scratch score over the two rounds. There will be net winners in each grade. There will be prizes for the Runners-up.
In the event of a tie winners will be determined:

In the case of the best aggregate scratch score by a sudden death play off. The tied pairs shall play one extra hole at a time with the pairs still tied moving on to the next hole until a winning pair has been decided. The play off holes shall be holes 1, 11, 12 and 18 repeated as necessary.
In all other cases by count backs as applied by Golf Link.
