For the duration of the winter competitions, a points deduction system for prize winners will operate.
Each competition will have an overall winner and depending on the number playing, a number of sectional prizes may also be awarded.
Sectional winners. If the number of entries is sufficient then a competition may be split into either 2 or 3 sections. The cutoff point for each section will vary slightly from week to week depending on the number of entries and handicap profile of the total field. 1 Prize will be awarded to the winner of each section.
Penalties: The overall winner will incur a 2 shot penalty and each of the sectional winners will incur 1 penalty point. All penalties are cumulative and will remain in force until we revert to 18 competitions in the Spring.
