Holden Scramble Regional/State Final Information
for Qualifiers of Local Events
Congratulations on qualifying for the 2016 Holden Scramble Regional/State Finals. Below you will find a
summary of information you need to know in order to be able to compete.
5 Rounds Rule:
All players competing in the 2016 Regional/State Finals must have completed a minimum of five (5) eligible single,
handicapped competition rounds during 2016 prior to the 1st of October 2016. A two (2) stroke penalty will be applied to the
team score on the first hole on the score card for every person who has not met the requirements. Handicap checks will be
carried out at all levels of the event. Two x 9 hole cards in handicapped competition rounds may constitute one competition
round.
Substitutions
A team member may be substituted if he/she is unable to play in the next level of competition. Prior to the next stage of
competition, the decision should be made in writing and submitted to your Holden Scramble Coordinator as to whether the
substitute will accompany the team to the next stage of the Holden Scramble should they be successful, or whether the original member at Local Event level returns to the team for Championship Final. If written notification is not submitted prior to
the next stage it will be the right of the Substitute player to proceed to the next stage of Competition.
The current GA Handicap of a substituting amateur must be equal to, greater than or up to a maximum of two (2.0) strokes
less than the approved GA Handicap (the handicap that was in effect when the team played at the Local Event) of the original
team member. If the original team member’s GA Handicap is lower than the Substitute’s, the original player’s handicap will be
applied for the Regional/State Final.
Only two (2) substitutions will be allowed for the duration of the tournament. These two substitutions cannot occur at the same
stage of the tournament. Females can be substituted by a male (and vice versa) providing that all GA Handicap requirements
are met.
Scorers
All Regional Final qualifying teams are expected to provide a non-playing scorer to the Regional Final event. Failure to bring a
non-playing scorer to the Regional Final will result in a half (0.5) stroke reduction to the team’s Daily Handicap.
Handicap Verification
handicap verification process takes place at all Regional Final & State Final events. Photo ID may be required to be provided
A
by each team member to verify their Golf Australia Handicap. Failure to provide this will result in a team being disqualified.
Adopted Professionals
Adopted professionals may be used* if a club’s professional has qualified more teams for the Regional Final than it has
available PGA Professional’s or the PGA Professional is not available to play. The PGA Professional should confirm approval
through the PGA Office. Should a PGA Professional win a Regional Final with more than one of his/her home or servicing
clubs, it is his/her responsibility to source an additional Professional for the Championship Final.
The Head Professional or Servicing Professional should advise the ‘adopted’ professional that, should they win the Regional
Final, they will not be automatically eligible to accompany the team to the Holden Scramble Championship Final. This is the
responsibility and the entitlement of the Head Professional or the Servicing Professional who coordinated the Local Event.
