ALL STROKE ROUNDS ARE FOR CHAMPIONSHIPS
FEBRUARY 06 STABLEFORD LARA BBQ
Stableford involves scoring points based on results at each hole. Using the index for each hole, players are able to make a mental allocation of their full handicap for each of the 18 holes. For example, a player on a handicap of 18 will add one shot to the par value of each hole to determine their own par for the hole. Thus a hole rated as a par 4 becomes a par 5 for the player. The points scoring method is then calculated by allocating two points for a par, one point for one over, three points for one under, four points for two under, and so on. For example, a player receiving a stroke on a par 4 hole scores 4 giving them a net 3; for this the player receives 3 points. A player at a par 3 hole scores a 4 but does not receive a stroke; for this the player would receive 1 point. Players who exceed their own par by two strokes score no points for the hole and, since they cannot improve on that result, they should pick up their ball. At the end of the round all points scored are added up and the player having the highest number of points is the winner. When marking the score card, the number of strokes taken must always be shown for holes where points are scored. Thus, the card records both strokes and points.

APRIL 03 4BBB STABLEFORD BACCHUS MARSH
.Two players play as partners. The best score of the pair is recorded on the score card along with that players initials. Strokes are taken as in a normal singles stableford game. If both players have the same score the first in the hole is recorded. At the completion of the round scores are tallied and the best score declared the winners.
APRIL 17 BISQUE BOGEY INVERLEIGH BBQ
Bisque Bogey is a variation on a standard par event, except the player can decide when and how many handicap strokes he or she will use on each hole. This decision is made AFTER completing each hole. The player informs their marker of how many handicap strokes they wish to use for the completed hole. Over the course of 18 holes the total number of handicap strokes used cannot exceed the players’ handicap. The handicap used and par score gained on any previous holes cannot be altered once the next hole is commenced. Any handicap not utilised by the end of the round is lost. Marking the card is done by recording the stroke score in the first column, the number of handicap strokes taken in the second column and the resultant par score of “+”, “0” or “-“ in the third column. At the completion of play the second column should be totalled and must not exceed the players’ handicap whilst the third column should be totalled and entered at the top of the score card as the players result

ROUND ONE OF BRIAN'S ANTENNAS SINGLES KNOCKOUT
This traditional form of the game sees two individuals competing against each other with the number of holes won or lost deciding the match. The match is completed when one player is ahead after the stipulated number of holes or is more holes up than the number of holes remaining to be played. The number of strokes awarded in this competition is the difference between the players’ handicaps. Where there are more than 18 strokes difference between players’ handicaps, the higher handicapped player will receive 2 or 3 strokes per hole where applicable.
