Rules & Points
Teeing Ground
The
Red Tees shall be the designated tees for all FTC events unless otherwise
specified. The USGA Handicap Manual Rule 3-5 (Players Competing from Different
Tees or Men and Women from Same Tees) shall be used for all net events. Players
may elect to play from the Orange Tees if the player’s age and handicap index
amount to 90 or more.
Ties
In the
advent of a tie, money and points will be split equally among those
players/teams whom are tied.
Blind Draws
In
the advent that a “Blind Draw” is needed in team play, the Pro Shop shall
select at random a unique Blind Draw for each person/team in need of a player.
Players selected as a Blind Draw, may place for their original team as well as
with the team in which they are being used as a “Blind Draw”. In that instance, that player will only
receive the higher points and money amount won. Their lower points and prize money won will
be discarded. The Pro Shop will always attempt to pair individual players
together rather then utilizing “Blind Draws”.
Scorecards
Score
Cards must be properly filled out with each players Last Name, First Initial,
& Course Handicap. The Player/Team
is responsible for dotting each players card, figuring hole-by-hole nets
scores, and adding total individual and team scores. Only if a “Blind Draw” is needed does a team
not need to figure their team score.
Score Cards must be turned in on the day of play.
Points & Prizes
From
FTC Opening Day until the FTC Closing Day, FTC Members may earn points in FTC
Events & Tournaments. Those points
will be calculated throughout the year and at years end a FTC Player of the
Year will be crowned. These points will also be used to payout prizes in the
form of a Pro Shop Gift Certificate.
