SFAGA TOURNAMENT and MEMBERSHIP RULES
GUEST PLAY
Guests are welcome to all regularly scheduled AGA tournaments.
TOURNAMENT SIGN-UP
To avoid conflicts in tournaments which have a maximum number of players
allowed, the following priority will apply to all paid entries received
by the Tournament Chairperson by the entry deadline: AGA members over
guests, members with more tournament participation in current year
over less, members of longer standing over less, early receipt of check over
later. Priority applied in order shown until entries do not exceed maximum.
FLIGHT COMPETITION
Members and guests are divided into two flights according to AGA handicap:
A) 0-16;
B) 17+.
Prizes are awarded to low net member winners of each flight.
FOURSOME COMPETITION AND PRIZES
Each member of the foursome is issued 10 chits. At the conclusion of each hole,
the net low ball (score less full AGA handicap), receives one chit from each
foursome member with a higher net score. Player with the most chits at the end
of the round is winner of the foursome prize. Prize for second place is three
golf balls. Second place foursome winners do not move to first place if the
foursome winner wins a low net flight prize. Prizes are awarded to members
first, in order of low net, then to guests. Prizes are awarded at dinner.
Winners not present at the dinner will not receive prizes—No exceptions.
Guests are eligible for long drive, closest to the pin and raffle prizes.

Summer rules apply unless changed by the Tournament Director due to weather or
course conditions. NCGA handicap will be used. Mulligan on the first hole only,
