1252.1 | This is how we do it ! | RAYBOK::COOPER | One-ton Tomato ! | Mon May 20 1991 16:05 | 7 |
| The club I play with uses 4-5 flights divided by handicap, only the
winner of the 0-5 handicap flight gets the title of Club Champion.
The oher flights 6-10, 11-15, 15-20, 21-over, receive a trophy
indicating that they won their flight in the club championship.
You play with your current handicap at the time of the tourney.

| At Green Meadow in Hudson, NH there are 4 flights. The first is
scratch which provides the REAL Club Champion. The other three are
broken up by handi-caps and are still called club champions and they
win the same prize, a years free golf.... And boy am I enjoying it.

| Wow !!! A years free play ?? I will have to bring that up
with my club. I didn't win but it would sure have been a
nice incentive to play well.

| Yup there are incentives to play well...

membership..winner got free years membership
yrear before I was winner of A flight= 100.00 off membership...
at my club it's broken up like at green meadows but in all
but the championship division you give/get strokes based on
your handicap...

1252.5 | Match play at Marlboro | PINGS::OGREN | | Mon May 20 1991 18:06 | 16 |
| What an excellent idea! Marlboro is similar, but the prize money is quite a
bit less (not that it's been one of my worries ;-) ...
Club Championship 0-7 scratch
Mayor's Cup 7-12 scratch
President's Cup 12-18 handicap
Vice-President's Cup 18+ handicap
The actual handicap range may shift a tad for equal distribution according to
member handicaps. Also, anyone can move up a flight but there is no moving down.
Handicap flights may be at 80% but I'm not positive on that one.
All flights are match play after a 36 hole qualifying. Makes for an outstanding
tournament!

1252.6 | Back home..... | MEMORY::HUGHES | Life is too SHORT to take it serious | Mon May 20 1991 19:02 | 7 |
| Back where I grew up and was a member (Northern NY), they started out
with 36 holes of qualifying. From there you were split into different
flights. Then you played match play until a winner was determined in
each flight. Only the Championship-flight winner was crowned the club
champion. This was the same for ladies, juniors and seniors also.
