Changes for this year’s league include:
• No substitutes. If a team member is absent, the opponent will play against the missing player’s handicap, minus two strokes.
• Teams can select their teammates with some consideration for a high and low handicap participant. Individuals without a partner will be teamed into two man teams.
• There will be minus handicaps for those whose average score is below 35 strokes.
• The white stakes east of holes two and three and west of hole four are out of bounds.
League play will be 12 weeks long and entry fee is $50 per individual. Handicaps will be carried over from last season. New participants need five nine-hole scores to determine a handicap before May 18.
There will be weekly special events (closest to the pin, longest putt, nearest to center line drive and low total). Like last year, those older than 65 years will tee from the forward tee. Two head-to-head matches will be scheduled, weeks six and week 12. A par three round with handicaps for the next week determined by score X 1.33 will be scheduled.
Other special nights might include a nine foot string "give me" putt night, a two-man team alternating shot night and a handicap adjustment "play it down/putt it down" night.
To give the course a little different look, one week the tee for five will be the forward tee on five and another night the tee for six will again be the forward tee for five.
Week 13 there will be an individual "men’s league club tournament" with flights based on handicaps. There will be a small entry fee for the tournament.
The men’s league would like to invite all previous participants and welcomes any member wishing to participate.
