Tournament Format The field will be divided into flights, which will be arranged by the aggregate total of the team’s handicaps. If two teams have the same total index, the player with the lowest index breaks the tie. Each round will consist of 18 holes of Strokeplay First Round
~
1 Best Ball on the Par 5’s, 2 Best Balls on the Par 4’s, 3 Best Balls on the Par 3’s
Second Round
~
1 Best Ball on Hole #1, 2 Best Balls on Hole #2, 3 Best Balls on Hole #3 (repeat)
The tournament tees will be the White Tee. The Rule of 75 is in effect - if your age plus your handicap is 75 or more, you are eligible to move to a forward set of tees (Fazio or Green). Please see a member of the Professional Staff if you would like to play from a different set of tees and we will adjust your handicap accordingly. In the event that a player decides to move to a forward set of tees, that team will not be eligible for any gross prizes.
Handicaps Handicaps will be taken from the December 1st revision with a maximum of 27 strokes. Handicaps will be verified by the committee. All players will play at 90% handicap.

Tournament Format Scorecards Scorecards for each round will be provided prior to teeing off. The scorecards will be marked with the individual handicaps as they have been previously certified by the Committee. All scorecards must be signed, attested and turned in at the scoreboard immediately following your round. Strokes will be marked where they fall on the 18-hole card.
Score Posting Please note the Berkeley Hall Professional Staff will be posting the Tournament Scores for each competitor under the direction of the Club’s Handicap Committee. We are requiring scorecards to be returned complete, signed and attested for posting purposes. Incomplete scorecards will have Decision 5-2a/5 applied for posting purposes.
Starting Times For each round, we will indicate your respective starting time & hole. It becomes necessary for us to ask you to be considerate of all the participants and arrive to your respective tee 10 minutes before your scheduled tee time and to keep pace with the group in front of you. This will help ensure an enjoyable time for all.
Optional Cash Buy-In The Official tournament cash buy-in may be entered by paying $400/team prior to teeing off on Friday morning. Thursday’s Practice Round Tournament will be an additional $100/team.

Rules of Play USGA Rules shall govern all play and the following Local Rules shall apply: Holes #10 & 14 (South) Waste Areas: Sandy areas to the right of #10 and #14 are not a hazard and are to be played through the green. North Course Holes #4 & #17 the margin of the red penalty area will be defined by the edge of the cart path nearest the penalty area. In addition to the option prescribed in rule 17.1, ball drops have been provided as an option if the player chooses. Please use the drop area that would be the closest to the spot the ball last crossed the margin of the penalty area not nearer the hole. North Course Hole #8 - Blue stakes indicate the portion of the immovable obstruction (cart path) behind the green from which free relief may be taken by using the drop area near the blue tee on #9. The vegetation contained in the cart path is part of the obstruction. A ball which is 95% certain to be in the vegetation does not have to be found. Immovable Obstructions: In addition to rule 15.2, if a ball lies off the putting green but not in a penalty area and an immovable obstruction on or within two club lengths of the putting green and within two club lengths of the ball intervenes on the line of play between the ball and the hole, the player may take relief as follows: The ball must be lifted and dropped at the nearest point to where the ball lay that (a) Is not nearer the hole, (b) avoids intervention and (c) is not in a penalty area or on a putting green. The ball may be cleaned when lifted. Newly Sodded & Sanded Areas: Relief must be taken from all newly sodded or sanded areas. Please proceed under rule 16.1. Staked Trees: Protection of young trees is identified by stakes and rope. If such a tree interferes with a players stance or the area of their intended swing, the ball must be lifted, without penalty and dropped in accordance with procedure prescribed in 16.1 (Immovable Obstruction) Embedded Ball Rule: Rule 16.3 provides relief without penalty for a ball embedded in its own pitch-mark in the general area. Out Of Bounds: Defined by white stakes / posts. Yellow Penalty Area: Defined by yellow stakes / lines. Red Penalty Area: Defined by red stakes / lines.
