2025 Roster

2025 Monday Senior League Rules

This league will be comprised of senior men of the community. Regular players must be 55 years of age or retired. Substitutes should fall into these limits, but if none available, anyone can participate. 

League play will begin at 9:00 am sharp prior to Memorial Day, then 8:30 sharp unless otherwise posted. If the Monday play is postponed due to weather or an incident necessary by the golf course, the league will attempt to play on Thursday at the scheduled time. We will again be using the GOLD TEES. 

Teams will mostly be the same as 2024 with the addition of new teams and new members as required. Teams will have four (4) men each. Position on each team will be determined by handicap at the beginning of each season. Number one man on opposing teams will play each other as will #2, #3, and #4 men. These positions will change throughout the season as handicaps vary so that low handicapper plays low handicapper and high plays high. If for some reason the proper players cannot or do not play each other, cards will be matched at the end of play for the day. PLEASE LEAVE ALL CARDS FOR STATISTICIAN. 

Fee for league will be as follows:

Individual fee - $30

Weekly fee of $5 for drawing and league expenses 

The team captains will collect individual fees and will turn them into the league Secretary by May 30..

The team captains will fill out score sheets. Only hole scores are required. The statistician will determine holes won and medal points awarded. Teams may do this on their own if they wish.

The league President and Treasurer/Secretary will see that all fees are collected. 

The handicaps will be based on a running average of gross score minus 36. Year end 2024 handicaps will be used the first week if one is available from league play. 

It was voted to use JUNGLE RULES. This means you can move the ball everywhere 1 club length, no closer to the hole. The 1 club length move must be within the same conditions. (example: No rough to fairway, no fringe to green, etc.). Exceptions are Sand Traps, Hazards, and on the green. 

Out-of-bounds Rule: All out of bounds will be treated as a hazard ( one stroke penalty and no loss of distance. ) 

Water Rule: If you hit into the water, you can play the next shot, either from the line the ball went into the water or laterally, on either side of the water, but no closer to the hole with a one shot penalty. If you hit into water on 2nd or subsequent shots on # 12, you can carry and drop your ball in the drop area on the other side with a one shot penalty.

The league has a maximum number of strokes per hole as 3 over par. When a player reaches 3 over par on a hole and has not put the ball in the cup, an X will be placed on the score card signifying the hole was not completed. The Statistician will score the hole as 3 over par when calculating gross and net scores. Any hole scored with X cannot be won over a player who completes the hole in allowable strokes. If both players get a X, they will split the hole. 

Team scoring is by a 10-point system for 9 hole competition using full handicap. One point for medal play and one point for each hole won. Half points will be awarded to each golfer in the event of tie holes. 

If a player is late for the team start time and does not tee off with the team, the player will forfeit that hole(s). The player also forfeits any opportunity to win the Medal Point for that round. If a player cannot finish a round because of injury, he will be credited with points won to that point, but in no way can win medal point. 

If no show and a substitute is not found, you get 0 points and your opponent gets 7 points. The player receiving the forfeit must play to receive the 7 points. When a forfeit occurs, the player who forfeits is still required to pay the weekly league fee ($5) the next week they play.

 There will be a mid-season scramble. In addition, there will be an end-of-year fun day scramble for all teams. During the round, the team must use at least one drive form each player.

Handicap Process: 

Week 1, we will use 2024 Handicap. If a player did not have a 2024 handicap, the handicap will be established after week 1 by subtracting 36 from their gross score.

After week one, handicaps will be updated weekly by taking the players gross score average from year to date play and subtracting 36.
