Entry into the weekly Men's Club competitions is voluntary. To be eligible for prizes requires a $5.00 payment to the player's pool on the day of play.
Those not wishing to compete for prizes will be paired together and play outside of the competitive field.
Weekly winnings from games, skins, KPs, low gross and low net will be credited to each individual's accounts
and paid out at the end of the season, by check mailed to their address on file with the Men's Club.

Abandonment Due to Bad Weather
If play is suspended by hazardous or inclement weather, play will be resumed, if possible, when the threat has disspated, determined by the Pro Shop. The Club President, or his designee, may cancel the event, should the suspension of play be longer than 30 minutes. If the event is cancelled, players will be credited their $5 contribution. If a player leaves prior to any determiantion by the Pro Shop and play is resumed, his team will not be permitted a blind draw to replace him.
Handicaps
A handicap of 36 or less at the Woodlands is required to compete for cash prizes in weekly club competitions. Prior year's SRMGC members whose handicap becomes greater than 36 at the Woodlands may compete for cash prizes using their actual course handicap upon review and approval of the Handicap Commitee.
New members without an established handicap must post five 18 hole scores (prior rounds accepted) to establish a "TREND " handicap, in order to play for prize funds. Each player must post each and every acceptable round played (except Men's Club play) into the GHIN System.
THE HANDICAP COMMITEE WILL POST ALL SCORES FOR ALL MEN'S CLUB PLAY.
As a member of the Sunriver Mens Golf Club, you will receive an update of your USGA Handicap Index from GHIN via e-mail each time your handicap is revised.
Remember to post ALL your non-Men's Club 9 or 18 hole golf scores, in the Meadows Pro Shop or in McDivot's (Woodlands) immediately after your round!
Golfers who travel and play away from Sunriver MUST post their scores, at the course played or on the Internet.
Players who travel and play away from Sunriver for the Winter, MUST post their scores (last 20 acceptable) to GHIN before being allowed to play in any Men's Club event. Scores can be posted on-line, or you can post the scores as a "visitor" at the club house where the round was played.
Tournament Scoring for Men's Club Competitions
We will use USGA Club Standards to keep our competitions fair. Tournament scores are a way for the GHIN System to automatically track players who shoot exceptionally low scores (approx net 65 or lower) during Men's Club competitions, over a rolling 12 month period. Selected Men's Club events will be so designated on the schedule as "T" (Tournament Score) by the Board. Resort Cup competition scores will be posted as a "T" score.
Tie-Breaking Procedures
If a tie breaker is required in any competition, other than Match Play or the Club Chapionship, USGA procedures will be used to determine a winner:
- 1st tie breaker, lowest score for the last 9 holes;
- 2nd tie breaker, lowest score on the last 6 holes;
- 3rd tie breaker, lowest score on the last 3 holes;
- 4th tie breaker, lowest score on the last hole.
Speed of Play
SPEED OF PLAY CONTINUES TO BE AN ISSUE. FOR CLUB POLICIES AND RECOMMENDED PRACTICES GO TO THE OUR WEBSITE MENU AND CLICK ON " SPEED OF PLAY" .
Responsibilities of Team Captains
The team captain is the lowest handicap player on the team and is responsible for the accuracy of all scores recorded on each hole. He is responsible for maintaining speed of play and enforcing the Rules of Golf. At the end of the round, the team captain is responsible for completing the official score card by adding up the team's total score, each individual player's gross and net scores and turning the card in to the Pro Shop. Team captain will also enter the time his team teed off from their first tee and the time they finished their last hole played.
Flighted Events
In all flighted events, the First Flight, (the eight (8) players with the lowest handicaps) will play from the tournament tees. All other flights will play from the white tees.
