CAPSTONE

Capstone Junior Open

Tournament Format

The tournament will adhere to the following format:

1. Stroke Play event  - All categories will be a stroke play format. Net scores will be calculated upon the scorecard hand in

2. Shotgun format - Players will start at a designated hole and complete 18 holes

3. Fourball - Players will be grouped in a fourball. Where possible, fourballs will be made of the same category of player

4. Ready Golf - We encourage all players to communicate and play ‘ready golf’. This means that rather than waiting for the player furthest from the hole to play first every time, if a player is ready to play and has communicated to the group, they can play.

5. Scoring - Players must score for their partner and caddies will verify the score after each hole

6. Net Scores - Players are to record their partner’s gross score. Net scores will be calculated but the tournament officials.

7. Golfer minimum age - The minimum age for any golfer is 10 years old.

The tournament will be broken into the following categories:
