Tournament #2: April 18, 2020

 

Gentlemen,

As of today, we are attempting to hold our event on April 18th.  However, everything about the tournament will differ from the norm as we all adjust to the current norm of every day life.

 

Here are several items you can expect but these are likely to change prior to the event so additional information will be provided when it's known.

 

• No shotgun starts are allowed.  It's expected that we'll be teeing off via tee times at 16 minute intervals.
• Skins competition is being eliminated during this tight regulation period.
• Since we are not able to congregate after the round, no results will be given immediately after completion.  Results will be forwarded later in the week once determined.

 

The following are the current guidelines posted on The Broadlands Golf Club's website.  These will be strickly enforced.  Please visit the course's website for additional descriptions.

 

• Walking Only Will Be Allowed - No motorized carts will be available for use.
• All Check-Ins Will be Done Via Telephone 
• Golfers Must Adhere to the 6' Social Distancing at ALL TIMES!
• No Touching of The Flagstick
• The Driving Range will remain closed
• The restaurant is open for take out and online ordering only
• The restrooms in the clubhouse will remain open, but the restrooms on the golf course will remain closed.

This invite is for Saturday's Round only.  A second email will be sent for Sunday's round as well.  Please respond to both.  Registration closes Wednesday, 5/13/20 at 10:00 pm. 

 

The Agony and The Ecstacy

 

Are you ready to test your game and enjoy the misery that comes from playing from the tips?  Welcome to The Agony.  All players, regardless of handicap, will play from the Black Tees so get your long ball ready.

 

This is a two day event and tournament leaders will be determined by a two day cummulative score.  That doesn't mean you can't play on just one day or the other for fun.  If your schedule only allows you to play in one of the two events, you're more than welcome to sign up for just one.  However, you will not be eligible for any of the prize money.

 

As of today (subject to change), it is expected that carts will be allowed with single riders for this event.

 

Thank you and enjoy the pain.

This invite is for Sunday's Round only.  Please respond to both Saturday and Sunday's invites so we know if you're playing in one or both.  Registration closes Wednesday, 5/13/20 at 10:00 pm. 

 

The Agony and The Ecstacy

 

To provide a day 2 reprieve from what you went through on day 1, The Ecstacy is supposed to make you feel good about your game.  So instead of the tips, every player will tee of from the Silver Tees.  But don't be too confident, every year we hear stories of players scoring better from the tips than from Silver.

 

This is a two day event and tournament leaders will be determined by a two day cummulative score.  That doesn't mean you can't play on just one day or the other for fun.  If your schedule only allows you to play in one of the two events, you're more than welcome to sign up for just one.  However, you will not be eligible for any of the prize money.

 

As of today (subject to change), it is expected that carts will be allowed with single riders for this event.

 

Thank you .

Tournament #5: Individual Stroke Play

 

Please join us for our event on May 30th, 2020.  This is a standard tournament where everyone plays their own ball from the appropriate tee boxes based on your flight.

 

We will continue to tee off via tee times until further notice.

Thank you, BMGC Tournament Committee

Format: Invidividual Stroke Play, Z CUP MAJOR

Date: Saturday June 13th

Starting Time: Morning

Starting Format: Tee Times

Registration Closes: June 10th at 10:00 pm 

 

This is another individual stroke play tournament and is one of our Z Cup Majors.  What that means is that more Z Cup points are awarded for both the winner and to more players.  IE, 50 points will be awarded to the winner of the event and 50 players will earn points vs the standard 30 and 30 points for other tournaments in which you play your own ball.

 

Any questions, please let us know.

 

Thank you

Format: Invidividual Stroke Play  GUESTS WELCOME!!!

Date: Saturday June 27th

Starting Time: Morning

Starting Format: Tee Times

Registration Closes: June 24th at 10:00 pm 

 

Due to the fact that we are still unable to do a shotgun start, this elimates the ability to have a social gathering with drinks and dinner as a large group after the round.  Therefore, the typical member/guest format and tournament is changing but we're trying to keep the spirit of of having guests alive.

 

What this means is that we're holding a standard individual stroke play event for members only but are allowing you to invite friends or family to play along side you.  Your guest would not be competing to be on the leaderboard, they'd simply be enjoying a day of golf in the middle of a Men's Club tournament to experience the atmosphere we provide.  

 

Summary

• Members are playing an individual stroke play event with pro shop credit, Z Cup points and skins as if there were no guests present.

• Members are allowed to invite a guest to play along side them during the tournament.

• Guests are not participating in the stroke play competition

• If the guest has a valid GHIN number, they CAN participate in skins for the $10 entry fee (paid via Venmo) or choose play in skins from the appropriate tees at a 0 handicap.

• Guests pay resident rate

 

If you invite a guest, in addition to hitting the "playing" button to register, please reply to this email with the Name and GHIN number of your guest if they have one.  

 

Any questions, please let us know.

 

Thank you

Format: 2 Man Net Best Ball

Date: Sunday July 12

Starting Time: Morning

Starting Format: Tee Times

 

First off, special note that this is a SUNDAY TOURNAMENT.  The format is a 2 man event in which your team score will be the lower of the two NET scores. 

 

Since we're playing in pairs flight sizes will be cut in half.  Therefore, I'm likely (dependant on final participations numbers) going to combine the Black and Gold flights as well as the Gold/Blue and Blue-Blue/Silver flights resulting in 2 larger flights.  It also allows me to mix up the pairings and create foursomes you wouldn't typically play with.

 

You may choose your partner HOWEVER, that partner must be from the correct flight.  If you're a Black or Gold tee player, choose someone from Black or Gold. If you're in the Gold/Blue or Blue-Blue/Silver flight, pick someone from one of those two flights.  Also, please confirm with who you're choosing that they're on board.  If you pick someone and they pick someone else, someone's feelings are going to get hurt and I will not be help responsible for that. 

If you do not specify anyone to play with, we will pair you with another player.

 

Any questions let us know, thank you.

Format: Invidividual Stroke Play, Z CUP MAJOR

Registration Closes: July 15th at 10:00 pm

Format: 2 Man Team: 6-6-6 (see below for further explanation)

Date: Saturday, August 15

Starting Time: Morning

Starting Format: Tee Times

Registration Closes: August 12th at 10:00 pm 

 

This event is another 2 man team format so I'm going to combine flights again.  Blue-Blue/Silver and Blue/Gold flights will merge and compete against each other and the Gold and Black flights will be one group.  You may choose your partner HOWEVER, if you pair with someone who is not in the same combined group as you (IE you're a gold tee player and you choose a blue tee player), I have the sole discretion to chose the flight and tee boxes you'll be playing from.

 

6-6-6 format: With this structure, you and your teammate will play 6 holes as a scramble, 6 holes alternating shots, and 6 holes as a best ball (both play your own ball and lower score between the two is counted for the team).  More details will be provided prior to the start of the tournament.

 

This format can be incredibly fun and stressful all wrapped into one.

 

Thank you, BMGC Tournament Committee

Club Championship

 

Gentlemen,

The following are key points for the club championship that everyone needs to be aware of.

 

• By signing up for Saturday, you're being entered into both Saturday and Sunday's events.  However, if you're only available for one of the two days and would simply like to play for fun on one of the two days, you may but you will only be eligible for skins, no tournament payouts.  Simply send me a message as to which day you're playing.
• This year we're requiring everyone to pay for both Saturday and Sunday rounds prior to teeing off on Saturday.  No refunds will be provided for Sunday with the exception of an emergency (bad play on day 1 does not constitute an emergency).  If you declare ahead of the tournament you're only playing one of the two days, you will only be required to pay for 1 day.
• In order to be eligible for either the Net or Gross Club Championship title, you have to have played in a minimum of 3 other Men's Club Events prior to the Club Championship
• Pay as you Go players will be charged only (1) $15 fee.
• If you want to compete for the Gross Championship Title anyone is welcome to declare so but you must play from the Black Tees.
