1. Only persons holding valid full year membership in an NBGA Category I member club shall be eligible to play on a team.
2. A player may not be eligible during a particular year to play for more than one club. A player who is a member of more than one member club should declare prior to play of the first matches which club he will play for.
3. The club team shall consist of a captain (who may be a playing or non-playing captain) and 16 players for each particular match. The club team does not have to consist of the same particular players for each match of the competition.
4. Each team shall be divided into 5 handicap flights for each match as follows:
Flight / # of Players per Flight / Slope Factor
A / 2 / 6.9 or lower
B / 4 / 7.0 to 11.9
C / 4 / 12.0 to 15.9
D / 4 / 16.0 to 19.9
E / 2 / 20.0 and +
5. During a particular competition season, a player may not play a subsequent match in a higher handicap flight regardless if his slope factor between matches has increased to a slope factor which would otherwise make him eligible to play in the higher flight. Exception: An exception shall be provided for a player who plays at a lower flight because there are not sufficient players with proper slope factors at the lower flight.
6. Each club shall have full discretion to determine its team members for a particular match, with the following exceptions:
It is recommended that where several club members wish to participate in the competition, the club use some form of competition to seed its members to play in the competition. |
