Golf Course transfers:

We have arranged a coach for golf transfers for those who have requested and paid £48.  The coach will only depart from and return to the Ballina Hotel. The departure times are arranged so that we arrive at the club approximately one hour before the first match tees off.

Format: The scoring format each day will be individual Stableford with Playing Handicap 95% of Course Handicap.  All four rounds will count towards the 2022 Order of Merit.

Handicap:  All four rounds will be run under the WHS system but scores will not automatically be forwarded to England Golf.  You MUST return your daily scores to your golf club and the easiest way to do this is to forward the email from Golf Genius, which you will receive after each round and which provides details of your scores.

GAGT Overseas Handicap System (OHA):  Where appropriate handicaps will be adjusted after each round in line with the GAGT OHA system, details of which we can provide.  Any adjustments will not affect your club Handicap Index.

The GAGT OHA system will take precedence over any adjustments made by a player’s home club so that everyone is operating on the same system as some clubs are slow to update overseas scores.  

Buggies & electric trolleys:  We have reserved a number of buggies and electric trolleys at each course and these will be allocated to those competitors who have made a request.  Buggies and trolleys must be paid for by each individual directly to the club.
