The accumulated scores of a monthly league will determine the top 4 places each month. (Countback will be used as per official handicapping software in the event of ties). Each qualifying month will produce 4 qualifiers who will progress into the playoff league in June. giving a total of 8 players in the playoffs. The playoff period will also consist of a 4 week league to find the top 4 players in that league and who the top 4 players will be to progress to the semi final.  The semi-finals will again be played over the 4 courses to be published and will be set out as the top qualifier playing the fourth qualifier - and the second will play the third qualifier  in a head to head 4 match knockout. The Final will also be played over a 4 match basis. ALL games will be stableford scoring.

  Hi Nigyrob

  We are currently on week 7 of 12 in the GS season and I will be opening the doors for new applications in the next 2 to 3 weeks. This allows time for newcomers to find out a little about us and become familiar with the way things work (with numerous formats and many comps it takes a little time to familiarise oneself)

  Please be aware that members are required to become active in the GS CC  as well as the main leagues , competitions and prize events. Therefore as per WGT rules a player may only belong to one CC.  This would mean any successful applicant would need to forego their membership in any other CC to become part of the GS setup.

  I have noticed you have registered for the GS Open, This may assist you in finding out more about us before the doors open for registration. 

  We run a newcomer comp each pre season to establish accurate handicaps and also to get you up to speed with scorecard requirements etc.  SSo  we guide you along every step of the way.

  Good luck in the GS Open and look forward to perhaps you joining us in the near future.
