ALL-DAY COMPETITION FIXTURES FOR 2022
The Competitions Committee has added more All-Day Competitions throughout 2022. These include Nine-Hole Stablefords, 18-Hole Medals and 18-Hole Stablefords. Here is the provisional list of dates for these competitions. See notice boards for ‘Competition Terms of Play’;
QUALIFICATION FOR COMPETITIONS 2022
With the introduction of the World Handicap System in late 2020, the requirement to post three qualifying scores annually was removed. This means handicaps could, in theory, remain static for years.
The Committee believe that this creates a risk as regards the integrity of handicaps and the fairness of competitions. Therefore, in common with many other golf clubs, we are going to introduce a new Local Rule at Kilworth Springs to mitigate this risk. This Local Rule will apply to all sections of the club:
With effect from February 2022, in order to play in Weekend Club Competitions, Ladies or Senior Competitions, members must have played a minimum of three qualifying competitions during the previous calendar year. These must be individual competitions where a card is submitted for handicap purposes. Note: Nine-Hole Competitions and All-Day Stableford’s will count towards qualification.
Members who have not played in sufficient qualifying events, can still enter 2022 competitions but they will not be eligible to win a prize until their 3rd qualifying event has been played (to include any competitions played the previous calendar year).
