LIIRA Golf League Rules

to report to the league director/chairperson all players on the roster with a GHIN of 9.0 or less. If a player is declared as an “A Player” and the GHIN of that player increases above 9.0, then the team captain is also responsible to report to the league director/chairperson the player is no longer classified as an “A Player”. If a player’s GHIN improves to a 9.0 or less, the captain must report this player as an “A Player” to the league director/chairperson. The reporting shall be done by the Captain by using the official team roster and updating it accordingly and sending it to the league director/chairperson.

The definition of the “A Division Handicap Stabilization” system is as follows:

  1. When the opposing B Team is losing by 1 hole, the losing team shall receive 1/2 stroke on the subsequent hole. If the losing team is losing by two (2) or more holes, they shall receive one stroke per hole.
  2. If an opposing B Team is winning by 2 holes or more, then the scoring system identified in section 13.1.d applies to the A Players (i.e. if the B Team is winning by two (2) holes, then the A Team gets 1/2 stroke on the subsequent hole and so on).
  3. When the “A Player” competes against an “A Player”, they shall follow the scoring system identified in section 13.1.d.
  4. The “A Players defined in section 13.1.e.1 above shall also give an additional two (2) strokes to the opposing team on the two (2) most difficult handicap holes as identified on the score card for the course being played, however, the “A Player” shall never give greater than 1 1⁄2 strokes on any one hole. NOTE: An “A Player” shall be defined as a player with a GHIN of 9.0 or less.

A-B1 Division – New Weekly Reporting Requirement

In the A-B1 Division ONLY, a legible scorecard with the first and last names, team names, date of match, hole by hole score for each player, and total score for each player for the 9-hole match must be sent via text by the winning team to Jim Klepper, L3Harris at (631) 495-1452. This will be done by taking a picture with a cell phone and texting it to Jim. Jim Klepper will post every 9-hole score of every player week by week in the A-B1 Division to a spreadsheet.

Player scores will be monitored and cross checked as required to the information reported on the A-B1 Division roster by the team captain. For all A-B1 players that are NOT “A Players” identified on their roster, after the most recent three rounds submitted per player, if a pattern of low scores is found (40 or less), then that player will be declared an “A Player”. The excel file of all scores posted by Jim will be shared with all captains so there is full transparency.
