The 2021/22 Winter League Scores

Competitions

The Winter League competition is not official, and won't affect your Handicap Index.

To enter this winter competition you must apply as  team of two to the match committee, and pay to enter using the App by choosing the competition from the Events tab.

The best 5 scores over the winter from each of the two players is totalled and the highest score will win.

Weekly competition card entry consists of putting a card in the box beside the iPad and should be clearly marked with each player in a particular column - It is requested that you try and enter one card per time slot, i.e 2, 3 or 4 players per card, and the cards are designed as such.

This is to adhere to the restrictions in place for the duration of the COVID pandemic.

The match committee will take responsibility for confirming the scores so please:

a) Make sure the Winter League handicap for all players in the group is on the card beside their name.
b) Record the number of strokes for all players in the group in separate columns- the Stableford points will be calculated by the computer.

Winter Course Rules

 From November 2021, Beith Golf Club are operating 'Winter Rules' for all play.

No play from fairways unless played from a mat.

Marker posts for 2 club lengths are in place within the rough

If your ball lies on the fairway beyond the white marker posts near the green, you may play the ball as it lies.

White lines have been marked out on the course between the 6th and 8th to indicate area within which a ball can be played - note these lines may not always be visible due to weather conditions

Preferred lies are in operation in the fairway AND the "first cut" - i.e. if the grass has been machine cut, you have a preferred lie.

If you do not have a mat, you must take the ball 2 club lengths into the rough and place the ball.

If your ball lands in anything that is obviously rough, or heather areas, bushes etc, it must be played as it lies or a penalty drop taken under normal golf rules.

It is suggested that on the 1st, if you don't have a mat, that you go across to the right side of the fairway and place the ball there.

When Winter greens are in operation, all bunkers are deemed GUR.

Please protect the course by adhering to these rules.
