NOTES
FOR TOURNAMENT PARTICIPANTS
BACK to TOP
Tournaments denoted by the * are limited to the members of the Men's
Tournament Association. However, golfing members who are not members
of the Men's Tournament Association may enter the Club Championship
and/or the Senior Club Championships but are required to have an established
USGA handicap and pay a $20 entry fee.
-Super-Senior status will be granted to participants who are at
least 60 years of age and no minimum handicap. This applies to all
events except the Club Championship, The Derby and the Cortland Betts
Member-Guest. Super-Senior status means that the individual will play
the tournament from the gold tees and reduce his handicap by four
strokes per the USGA's rules of golf (4 strokes is the difference
in course ratings from the white tees to the gold tees). You must
put a "SS" next to your name on the sign-up sheet for all
tournaments requiring an early sign-up. When there is a sign-up with
the Starter Tournament, the individual player is required to declare
this "SS" status before teeing off.
-Sign-up sheets and rules of play for each tournament
will be posted at least two weeks prior to play. Consult the bulletin
board weekly to keep abreast of tournament play and related information.
-The latest tee times for scheduled sweeps on weekends
is 11:00 AM.
-Participants in MTA Tournaments must tee off by
11:00 AM for single day events and on the final day of deadlines for
optional or multiple day tournaments.
-Early sign-up required usually implies that the
deadline to sign-up is before the close of the Pro Shop on the Wednesday
before the scheduled event. Exceptions to this will be posted in a
timely fashion.
-All tournaments must be played with at least a threesome
of competitors. All scorecards must be properly completed and attested
by two players. An incorrect score will result in disqualification.
-The Club Championship, Senior Club Championship
and the Derby scores must be posted in the GHIN computer as a tournament
score. These scores will be shown with a "T" next to them
on the person's score history report.
-In the event of a prolonged weather delay which
does not allow the entire field to complete play in any given round,
the Committee will determine whether the round shall be completed
or cancelled due to time restraints.
-Players who fail to meet the deadlines for extended
rounds of play are subject to disqualification.
-MTA tournaments never use match of cards (the pot
is split), except for shotgun starts, which will be decided by a "chip-off".
-Tiebreakers for tournaments conform to USGA recommendations
except where noted in the posted rules of play from some tournaments.
-A series of optional tournaments will be run by
the Pro Shop whenever feasible.
-Rules of play and entry fees will be publicized.
-Information and entry forms for TDGA events will
be made available to the membership.
-Reciprocal Play: a greens fee will be charged when

event.
