The Member-Member
June 24 & 25, 2016

You are cordially invited to participate in the Mayacama Member-Member Four-Ball Match Play Tournament on Friday and Saturday, June 24 & 25. For the 2016 Member-Member, we will continue with the 9-hole Match Play format so popular in last year's Member-Member. This is a great way to meet your fellow Members and enjoy playing 5 nine-hole matches with everyone in your flight. There will be lots to celebrate in the Member-Member...food, wine, prizes, and getting together with your fellow Members to enjoy a fun and exciting better-ball match play tournament. Please take a look at the format below and feel free to call a member of your Professional Staff if you have any questions regarding this great tournament. We hope to see you there!

FORMAT
The format is Four-Ball Match Play (Better-Ball-of-Two) using 100% of your Course Handicap. Five 9-hole matches will be played within each flight. Scoring for these matches will be based on the following point system:

• Hole Won:  1 Point
• Hole Halved:  ½ Point
• Maximum, Points per 9-Hole Match:  7 Points

The team accumulating the highest point total in each flight will be the Flight Winner. The team with the second highest point total will be declared the Flight Runner-Up. Ties for Flight Champion and Flight Runner-Up will be broken by the results of earlier head-to-head matches between the tied teams.

FLIGHTS
The field will be divided into Flights based on the number of entries (Two Women’s Flights and Four Men’s Flights). The combined Course Handicaps of the two team Members will determine which flight the team will be assigned. Each Flight will consist of six teams. Play will be from the following tee markers:

• Men:  Middle Tee Markers
• Women:  Forward Tee Markers

OVERALL CHAMPION
The Overall Champion will be decided by a four hole Shoot-Out among the Flight Winners. The format for the shoot-out is Foursome Stroke Play (Alternate Shot).

HANDICAP INFORMATION
Members MUST have an established current USGA Handicap Index to compete for net prizes. The Championship Committee will be using your current USGA Handicap Index as of June 15, 2016. Strokes for all matches will be distributed according to the Stroke Index on the scorecard. For players whose handicap is an odd number, ½ strokes will be given. (Example:  If a player has a handicap of 9 strokes, he/she will will receive a total of 4-½ strokes per nine-hole match.)  The maximum handicap differential between partners is 10 strokes.
