Description/Format/Rules:

• Four-man ABCD teams as drafted by the owners at Tuesday night’s owners draft party. 
• AFC & NFC Conferences: There will be two conferences with a North and South Division in each.
• 2 best Net balls on each hole will count toward the team score.
• The Index revision in effect when sign-ups close will be used for handicaps. The USGA recommended allowance of 85% for the best two of four balls format will be used to compute the playing handicap.  
• One member of each foursome will be required to score online using a mobile device. Another player will keep a paper scorecard. Teams are responsible for verifying that the two scores agree before signing and handing in the card. 
• The max score is a net double bogey.
• Courses are Creek/Choctaw.    
• Play will be from any tee chosen by the player at signup.   Tee selections will be Black, Blue, Blue/White, White, White/Gold, Gold, Gold/Green, and Green. Consider your choice carefully, as there will be NO tee changes once signup closes. 

Playoffs:

• The four Division winners will proceed to the playoffs.
•  A one-hole playoff will decide the Conference championship on Creek 9 between the Division winners in that Conference.  The team score for the Conference playoffs will be the sum of the three best net balls of the team.     
• A one-hole playoff will decide the Super Bowl championship between the two Conference champions on Creek 9.   The team score will be the sum of the three best net scores for the hole.   Creek 9 will be replayed as many times as necessary to crown a Super Bowl Champion.  

• Flights and Divisions: all ties will be resolved using the USGA 9/6/3/1 methodology.  The winner of a tie (or ties) will be the player or team with the best score for the back nine holes (irrespective of starting hole), and if not resolved, the last 6, last 3, and last hole in that order.  If a tie is not resolved on the back 9, the same process will be used for the front nine.  If there is no winner at this point, the tie will be resolved by chip-off as described below.   

Flight Payouts: 

The number of places paid will be determined by the number of total teams, with the payout approximating 40% of the field.  Payouts will be in Big Canoe Bucks.

A cash pool will be available for interested teams.  Each team owner of interested teams will contribute $100 to the cash pool. All cash payments will be due on the first tee Friday morning.   Please bring exact change.   No entries will be accepted after the team tees off.  While teams not entering the cash pool may still participate in the playoffs, they will not receive prize money from the cash pool, and the payouts for other teams will be adjusted accordingly.
