VVMGC MATCH PLAY TOURNAMENT 2012

GENERAL INFORMATION:

Handicaps will be based on the lower of your SCGA or VVMGC Tournament handicap and will be used throughout the tournament and adjusted monthly. Prize money for the match play tournament will be distributed at the conclusion of the Club Championship in September. There will be four flights, A, B, C and D. Sixteen people will advance for each flight. (If there are less than 16 players for a particular flight all players will qualify for match play) Matches can be played at any course with agreement by both players.  Rules governing match play will be followed. If a player (s) fail to schedule or play their match in the time allotted they will forfeit their match. If two players can not agree to a match in the allotted time they will both forfeit their match. The tournament chairpersons will assist on scheduling disputes but will have final say on the outcome of the dispute if the players cannot resolve it.  (Flight finals will be A vs. C and B vs. D.)

SCHEDULE OF MATCHES:
Final 64 players (16 in each flight) will be determined in February. Each of the 16 players will be bracketed. Numerical draw for each flight will be a standard qualifying order format.

Second round matches must be completed by the last day in the month of April 2011. Etc…
