Date: Tuesday, May 21, 2019
Time: Tee times will be 8 minutes apart, starting between 1:28 p.m. and 3:20 p.m. Be sure that all team members are able to be on the tee box, ready to golf at the selected tee time (arriving 15 minutes in advance of your tee time is recommended).
Location: Kelowna Springs Golf Club – Kelowna Springs is a full 9 hole course.
Tournament format
This year’s event will be more flexible – golf when you want, eat when you want, and play how you want. Please decide as a group which tournament format you would like to play before you start. Here are a couple format ideas:
Two player alternate shot
Basic details of alternate shot play:
- Player A and Player B as a two-player team for the entire round with one ball
- Player A hits the opening tee shot
- Both Player A and Player B advance to where Player A’s tee shot landed, Player B plays that same ball from that location
- The third shot is played by Player A, and so on until the ball is putted into the hole
- Players also alternate who takes the tee shot. Since Player A teed off on the first hole, Player B takes the tee shot on the second hole
- Players continue to alternate shots within each hole and alternate tee shots from hole to hole until the round is complete
Best ball/scramble
Everyone tees off, team then chooses which shot is the ‘best’ and all players play their next shots from that location. Everyone shoots from that one location and again, your team selects the ‘best’ shot. Play continues in this fashion until you have completed the hole. Every hole is played the same way. You can choose to select a certain number of drivers from each team member (e.g. two drives from every player).
Standard golf game
Each player plays their own ball throughout the 9 holes.
