Men’s League

Sign-up will be available starting March 1st, through Golf Genius. Hoping to have everyone signed up for leagues by May 7th

Gentlemen, the 2024 golf season is just around the corner and I want to get you some of our key dates as well as some of the changes to Men’s League this year. We will be running our entire league through Golf Genius, including payment and registration.

This is what the Golf Genius app that you need to download should look like.

Standing Tee-Time sheet is at the clubhouse now. If you were in league last year, your time will be granted to you again this year. New league members will get preference on tee times over non-league members and league members already having completed their league round.

The 2023 fees will be $125 for non-skins participants and $150 for participants opting into the weekly skins game (Blind Bogey). Green Fees and Cart rental NOT included. (must be paid with cash or check):

• –  $40 for MGA handicap
• –  $80 for men’s league
• –  $30 for the blind bogey skins game (optional)
• –  Longest putt and closest to the pin $1 per game each week (not included in league dues)
• –  $5 “back nine” (opposite 9 of league) skins game (not included in league dues)
  

  FORMAT

  -Individual Stroke play, 9 Holes

  – Make your own tee time. Bring your own group (Foursomes preferred, if you only have 2-3 guys, we can hopefully put you in touch with another pair looking to complete a group)

  – Must have at least 2 league members in a group for it to count.

  – Gross and net scores used for calculating team weekly scores. (Low 2 net scores counted first then low 2 gross scores per team. Scores can only be used in net or gross and not both.

  – Based off of 12 teams, the low score each week will receive 12 points, 2nd lowest score 11 points… highest score receiving 1 point.

  Teams created based off of USGA handicap. A full list of league participants will be organized by handicap index. Then we will just go down the list and add players to teams.

  Example. Team 1 will have the lowest handicapped player, Team 2 will have the 2nd lowest, etc. In the case of 12 teams, the 13th player will be on team 12, 14th player will be on team 11, 24th player will be on team 1. We will then continue this way (snake draft) until all of the players have been assigned to a team.

Individuals will be responsible for putting their own scores into the Golf Genius live scoring app. You will select what tees are played each week.

Scores must be inputted every week otherwise they will NOT be counted and the individual will not get credit for playing that week.

This year we will be having 2 halves instead of 4 quarters again. The top 4 teams from each half will make the playoffs. 8 teams total will make the playoffs. 2-week playoff (aggregate score). Top 4 teams will make the cut after week one of the playoffs. The 4 teams that get eliminated after week 1 of the playoffs will not get any team prize money, only the 4 teams making the final week.

The playoffs will be used for year-end payouts; however, the overall team champ will be figured by accumulating the entire season point total (these individuals will go on the league champ plaque).

Rain-outs will not be made up, that half will just have less weeks in it.

PRIZES

There will be 6 balls awarded each week. 1 ball to each of the 3 lowest gross scores, and 1 ball to each of the 3 lowest net scores. The gross scores will be figured 1st and if you win a gross ball you will not be eligible to win a net ball. Closest to pin and longest putt will be back, $1/game per week.

We, again, will be selling decks of cards this year ($10/card) for a chance at a Scotty Cameron putter. It will run throughout the season. Will start a new deck of cards once the previous is complete.

New this year we will be having a few season-long awards (with a prize to go along with it!) You will have to have competed and recorded a score for at least 75% of league rounds (12 out of 16, playoff weeks included).

YEAR END DRAWINGS

Any individual missing 0-1 league dates will go into a drawing to win a new Driver ($600 value)

Any individuals missing 2-3 league dates (or less) will go into a drawing to win a new putter ($400 value)

Any individuals missing 2-3 league dates (or less) will go into a drawing to win a new wedge ($175 value)

Any individuals missing 3-4 league dates (or less) will go into a drawing to win a dozen golf balls of their choice (up to $60 value)

You will go into ALL of the drawings if you missed only 0-1 weeks, if you miss 2-3 you will be in the drawings for the putter, the wedge and the golf balls.

Other drawings and prizes may be done in addition to those mentioned above. It all depends on the turnout that we can get for our Men’s League this year.
