The International

It is a stroke play event

In previous years all teams played from the red tees which took a bit out of the game for many members, therefore, we have changed the format slightly this year. Six holes will be played from the white tee, 6 holes will be played from the yellow tee and 6 holes will be played from the red tee. The Committee will decide which holes are played from which tee and cards indicating the required tee will be provided.

Teams consist of 4 players and the team handicap will be 1/8 of the combined handicap of the 4 players, using the yellow tee for handicap purposes.

Each team must nominate a captain who has the final decision on everything. If no captain is agreed on by the team, then the Committee will recognise the lowest handicap player as the captain.

Each member of the team has to have a minimum of 3 drives each (not including par 3s) and whoever’s drive is used must be marked on the scorecard. If any member of the team does not have 3 drives, then that team will be disqualified, so pick the drives that you use carefully!

The way it works – At each individual hole look at the card to see which tee you must play from. All 4 players drive at each hole. The captain selects which drive to use and then the three players whose ball is not being used, pick their balls up. The ball selected is marked and all 4 players then play from that spot. Players can play in any order, the player who’s ball was selected, does not have to go first. Once again, the captain selects which ball is the best and all 4 players play from that spot and so on until the ball is holed.

If the ball marked is on the fairway or the surrounds of the green then the team may “place” their balls within 6 inches of the mark. If the marked ball is in the rough, the semi rough or a hazard then the balls must be “dropped” within 6 inches.

The score that counts is the score when the first ball is holed. Therefore, be careful when putting. If the first member hits the ball to a few inches, then go up and mark it! If you tap it in, that is the score that will count and you have denied the other team members a chance of holing it for one shot less.

3 person teams can compete if one member drops out or if we cannot make up numbers. In this case the team handicap will be 1/6 of the combined handicap and each member must get in 4 drives (not including par 3s)
