qualifying rounds. Points will be scored using your Gross scores. After completion of
your round 100% of your handicap will be added to get a final qualifying score.

Tees:
All interclub qualifying and interclub matches will be played from the Combo tees (6509

Procedure:
Notify the pro shop that you intend to qualify before your round. Play with at least one
other member and in accordance with the stipulated rules. Sign and have your scorecard
attested and turn it to the pro shop upon completion of play.
Rules:
USGA Rules will apply with Local Rules modifications. In addition there are special
rules adopted for Interclub play only. Please note that these special rules include the
option of treating stones in a bunker as moveable obstructions and the option of taking
free relief when greenside sprinkler heads are within of both the putting surface and your
ball and they interfere with your intended line of play.
Uniform:
New this year will be team shirts ($21), which all members of the team will be required
to purchase and wear at each match. Also available will be an optional wind shirt ($30),
Vest ($30), and/or sweater ($32). All items are priced at cost plus 10%. These items are
on display in the pro shop. Players are requested to wear either tan or navy shorts or
pants.
Selection:
This year’s team captain Bob Mandeville is in charge of the team selection process,
which will be chosen from the team roster of 18 players, as determined by qualifying.
This roster of players will be listed initially in the order of qualifying and adjusted by
each player’s performance for each match thereafter. Players will be asked to confirm
their availability for specific matches, with preferences given to those members who
indicate availability for both “home” and “away” matches.
