Oak Valley Interclub Matches
In 2021 Oak Valley will participate in TWO levels - Regular Interclub and Senior Interclub of the Carolinas Golf Association Interclub. This is sponsored by the Club, not the MGA.
Competition Scoring: Eight players for each team will compete in one of four "four ball" matches. Each team's players will be paired by ascending handicap index, into the two man teams, with strokes awarded off the low man in each foursome. Each four ball match is playing for 1 point per hole. Therefore, in each Team match 72 points are in play. The team that wins a majority of the points (36.5) is determined the winner of the team match.
Clubs have agreed that each event will cost $25 per player to cover carts, range balls, food & beverage. 8 players will compete each match, but unlimited numbers may play behind the match.
An emphasis will be made to get all players who desire to compete included, especially new comers. Team Practice rounds will be allowed at cart fee only for the away team prior to the match. The OVGC team will make date available to all players prior to each Match.
