Men’s Night 9/14: Net & Gross, White & Blue — Competition Rules

Men’s Night 9/14: Net & Gross, White & Blue — Front 9

For Men’s Night this week, we’ll be playing stroke play on the Front 9 applying our standard weekend tournament scoring system to Men’s Night scores. Both Net & Gross leaderboards will be used to determine final result standings. Wherever a player places best (net or gross) is the final Men’s Night leaderboard position they’ll take for Chase Points distribution.

This week, players may play White or Blue tees (or Gold for Rule of 75 players whose Age + Handicap >= 75) at their own discretion as practice for the Club Championship. Net and gross scores will be tallied for all players regardless of tee selection. For players playing Blue or Gold tees, please note (Blue) or (Gold) next to your name on your scorecard (unmarked cards will be assumed to be white tees) and record gross scores for all holes.

To get ready for the weekend, we’ll be PLAYING THE BALL DOWN EVERYWHERE with the exception of bunkers which will be played as Ground Under Repair.

Competition Rules for Men’s Night 9/14

  • For this week, all Men’s Night competitors play the Front 9 with net and gross scoring. 100% of Front 9 course handicaps will be used for net scores. There is no entry fee for Men’s Night this week and only Points Chase points will be awarded to the top one-third of the field.
  • Men’s Night rounds may be played at any time on Thursday with an accompanying MGA member. Please record gross scores for all holes on scorecards with names clearly marked and turn in completed cards to the Pro Shop.
  • Players may play White or Blue tees (or Gold for Rule of 75 players whose Age + Handicap >= 75) and, regardless of tees, both net and gross score will be calculated for leaderboard placement.
  • We will be PLAYING THE BALL DOWN EVERYWHERE.As the exception, all BUNKERS will be played as GROUND UNDER REPAIR. If your ball ends up in a bunker, you may play the ball as it lies or take free relief outside the bunker. To take relief, you must find the nearest point of complete relief outside the bunker and DROP from within one club-length of that point, no closer to the hole.
  • Balls marked on the green may be replaced to the side of any “Dollar Spot” fungus/disease, no closer to the hole. Additionally, “Dollar Spot” brown-patch areas on the green larger than 2 feet may be considered Ground Under Repair from which putting-line relief may be taken (as far as necessary), no closer to the hole. 
  • Netting in re-sodded areas, drain trenches, and exposed rocks added as topper for drainage systems should be considered Ground Under Repair from which free relief may be taken, no closer to the hole. Additionally, tire tracks, bare areas immediately adjacent to cart paths, and bare areas larger than a club length should be considered Ground Under Repair. DROP within one club-length of the nearest point of relief, no closer to the hole.
  • Tall grass and unmaintained sections of the course may be played as penalty areas. These areas include: the hill between the cart paths for the 4th and 5th holes, right of the 7th hole fairway, surrounding the back and left of the 11th green, right of the 13th fairway and surrounding the 13th green, right of the cart path on the 14th hole, on the hill between the 14th and 16th holes, right of the 15th hole and surrounding the 15th green. In the case you do not find your ball in these areas, follow the standard red penalty area dropping procedure.
  • Any player who does not meet the MGA 2-in-30 handicap posting policy or has not submitted a written appeal for exemption prior to play to [email protected] if they are unable to meet the requirement, will automatically play as a 0 handicap for Men’s Night.
  • This week’s format allows for the completion of a 9-hole round that is valid for handicap posting purposes. Men’s Night scores must be posted promptly to your handicap account. Any player who places but has not posted will have their score disqualified from placement consideration.
