🏌️‍♂️ CCGL Preseason Stroke Play – Event Description

The CCGL Preseason consists of three 9-hole stroke-play rounds used to establish player handicaps for the upcoming match-play season.
Each player competes individually, keeping their own scorecard — no head-to-head scoring this round.

Rules:

• Format: 9-Hole Stroke Play

• Each stroke counts toward your total score

• Lowest total score wins the week (for bragging rights only)

• All rounds are played under the same simulator settings:

  • Gimmes: 8 ft

  • Tees: Men’s tees as agreed upon by league officials (standard is 5,900 – 6,500 yards for 18 holes)

  • Mulligans: None, except as outlined below

• Breakfast Ball: One (1) “breakfast ball” per round is permitted — drives only.

• Simulator Misread: If a player believes the simulator misread a shot, they may replay it as a free mulligan — but only if the present league group as a whole agrees it was a misread.

• No other mulligans or re-hits are permitted.

Preseason scores will be averaged to calculate each player’s simulator handicap using:

(Average Score – Course Par) × 0.8

Handicaps will take effect starting December 10 for the official 12-week Match-Play Season.

Final say of all league issues are determined by league officials.
