This month's tournament is the Club Championship (see the Rules below). The first tee time is 07:31 (see the Pairings below). Changes may be expected. The pairings, tee times and rules at game time take precedence over these posted on the website. Please check-in at least forty-five minutes prior to your tee time.

The Club Championship will be played on two successive days -- Saturday and Sunday. The handicap, that will be applied, will be calculated from your twelve month LI (Low Index) that appears on the 15 September 2011 GHIN Index Report. See also your LI reported on the "Roster" page of our website. Call any member of the Board of Governors for the password.

The tournament format is Individual Low Net/Low Gross. There will be three first place prizes awarded. Individual Low Net, Individual Low Net (Super Seniors) and Individual Low Gross. Super Seniors are those members 70 years or older.

Anticipate three flights. Flights will be determined by your Low Index (LI) number.

The pairings for the first day will be in handicap order. With the low handicaped players going off early. The pairings for the second day will change. They will be based on the standings from day one. The players with the lowest Gross scores will be teamed against each other and will go off first. The players with the highest Gross scores will go off last.

I will try to get the second day pairings posted Saturday night (24 Sep). If you shot low on Saturday, show up early Sunday.
