Scoring
One player in each group will keep score using the SQUABBIT app. The other two player will keep score with a paper scorecard.
The app can be found at https://app.squabbitgolf.com/
One scorecard is to be turned in to the official scorer's table, signed by all 3 players in the group attesting their scores.
After the signed scorecard is turned in, if there is a score decrepancy, all players in the group will receive a one-stroke penalty.
Rules
Players must tee off from behind the white dots at the beginning of each lane.
The tee position includes setting the ball ON any part of the white dot.
Relief is a full length of a score card.
Relief may only be taken from the block borders or rails.
If a ball is behind an orange rail, players may take relief, but may not improve their line to the cup.
There is no relief at the transition area between the rough and green.
If a ball rolls back and through the tee box, clearing the dots, the player may reset their tee position and continue without penalty.
Players are not permitted to putt through other lanes.
If a ball goes into another lane, the player will retrieve ball, return it to its orginal position, take a penalty stroke, and continue. Otherwise all grass is in play.
Hole 11: Players must play the rails through the length of the lane and are not allowed to play directly from the tee box through the rough towards the hole.
Hole 13: If a ball stops inside of or behind the 'former' cup that is covered, players get relief outside of that 'cup' to the left or right and not closer to the hole.
Hole 16: Relief may be taken out of the depression area at the end of the lane, from the rough one full scorecard length.
If inclement weather affects play on Saturday, 8/22, competition may be extended until 7:00pm to complete the first four rounds.
If inclement weather affects play on Sunday, 8/23, no rounds will begin after 3:00pm.
The tournament becomes official once at least four rounds have been completed.
