Special Events and Tournament Planning
This
summary is prepared as a guide to assist individuals in charge of
golf tournaments or events planning. It may give you ideas on
special events that you may want to include for your group.
9-Hole or 18 Hole Scratch Stroke Play Tournament
In a scratch play tournament, no handicap is used. The lowest
score wins the event. This type of tournament is usually reserved
for par or near par golfers. Competition may be on an individual
basis, or you play as two, three, or four man teams.
9-Hole or 18-Hole Handicap Tournament
This type of event enables golfers of varying abilities to
compete on an even basis. This event may utilize USGA handicaps if
all participants have a current USGA handicap. The Peoria System (or
Calloway System) may be used for non-handicapped players to
determine winners.
Scramble
A tournament and/or format of golf play. All golfers hit the
ball, starting at the tee. The best ball is picked after each shot,
and everyone picks their ball up and hits from the spot as the best
ball. The process starts all over again until the ball is putted
out. Score is counted using one stroke for each best ball. This
format is good for beginners, as it alleviates the pressure of
playing with better players.
Closest to the Pin on a Par Three Hole
The golfer in the first group who is closest to the pin on the
selected hole(s) writes his/her name on the tag and puts the marker
where the shot came to rest. If following groups have an individual
whose tee shot comes closer to the hole, he/she writes name on the
tag under the previous names and places marker where his/her ball
came to rest. The last name on the marker is the winner. A special
prize may be awarded for this event.
Longest Drive
In this event the golfer in the first group who has the longest
drive on the selected hole(s) writes his/her name on the tag and
puts the marker where the shot came to rest. If following groups
have an individual who has a longer drive, he/she writes name on the
tag under the previous names and places marker where his/her ball
came to rest. The last name on the marker is the winner. A special
prize may be awarded for this event.
Longest Putt
In this event
the golfer in the first group who's putt is the longest of all putts
in his/her group on the selected hole(s) writes his/her name on the
tag and puts the marker where the putt was shot from. If following
groups have an individual who has a longer putt, he/she writes name
on the tag under the previous names and places marker where his/her
ball was putted from. The last name on the marker is the winner. A
special prize may be awarded for this event.
Skins
A skin is when you get a birdie on a hole, if more than one
birdie is made on the same hole, then the hole is halved and no skin
is awarded for that hole. A skin is won by being the only one to get
a birdie on a hole. An extra fee can be charged if golfers wish to
participate in skins and then divided among the skin winners.
Putting Contest
A putting contest is a fun way to finish off your golf
tournament. The golf course would set up a three hole-putting course
on the practice green. You can charge for every try (winner taking
the pot) or just give everyone a certain amount of tries. Goal is to
complete the putting course in the least amount of putts.
