Tee times are to be no later than 2 p.m. Tee times for each team must be consecutive. Please take into account drive time when arranging these times. 36-HOLE FACILITIES    Team Captains should communicate the competition course. The host club is responsible for this decision and course selection may be dependent upon various factors such as the weather. DRESS CODE    Each member club has different rules on the dress permitted in various areas at certain times. Be sure to inform your opponent of the club rules before the team arrives. METHODS OF PAYMENT    Each member club has different rules on how purchases may be made (i.e. cash only, reciprocal only, etc.). Be sure to communicate your club rules to the opposing Team Captain. POST GOLF MEAL   The Association has removed the dinner portion of the GAP Team Matches and replaced it with cocktails and Hors d'oeuvres.

SCORESHEETS    It is each Team Captain’s responsibility to fill out the scoresheet properly and ensure the scoresheet has been posted to the Golf Association Web site at www.gapgolf.org. LINE-UP PRESENTATION    The Home Team Captain should provide the scoresheet with his lineup to the Away Team Captain upon arrival. REMINDER: April 1 Revision only applies to the GAP Team Matches.    **Most of all it is important to remember that these visiting teams are guests of your club. Any information or accommodations that can be provided or made available will make the Team Matches all that much more enjoyable for all involved. THE TEAM    Each team will consist of 12 players. Six players will play at the away course and six at the home course. FORMAT OF COMPETITION    Each player shall compete in a singles match and a four-ball match concurrently. RULES OF COMPETITION    a. All play shall be in accordance with the USGA Rules of Golf, unless granted an exception by the GAP Executive Committee.    b. All matches will be played at scratch.    c. Where applicable, the Rules of Golf for four-ball matches shall take precedence over the Rules of Golf for singles matches.    d. Rule 8 – Advice.

ELIGIBLE PLAYERS    a. Amateur Status. All players must have unquestionable amateur status.    b. Age Requirements. The GAP does not require any player, who fits into the handicap requirements of his team, to be of a certain age. However, a junior or college player should consult his team coach before competing. Competing in the GAP Matches could prohibit him from any school athletic activity.    c. New Members. The GAP requires all players to have a handicap showing on the April 1, 2013 Player Ranking. Clubs utilizing the electronic option must add new members and at least five scores for each prior to March 28, 2013; otherwise, those members will not be eligible.

A list of all members from your club who are eligible for the Team Matches is posted in the GAP Locker of each team Captain and Golf Professional. Next to each player’s name is a seven-digit GHIN number. This number must be recorded on the result sheets opposite the player’s name. Subsequent revisions will NOT apply. HANDICAP ADJUSTMENT    The Handicap Committee at each member club has the responsibility to make certain that each player has a handicap index reflecting potential ability. There are a number of different reasons the Committee could chose to alter a handicap index. Any member club who chooses to alter a handicap index of a player who will participate in the GAP Team Matches must submit this information in writing, with supporting materials, for Association approval. The deadline for submission is April 1. The player's original handicap index or altered handicap index may be chosen for use in the GAP Team Matches. Member Clubs who make alterations of players participating in the GAP Team Matches and do not submit the information to the Association will be subject to penalties in the Matches which may include suspension. INELIGIBLE PLAYERS    a. Definition. Any player who:      1. Does Not have unquestionable amateur status      2. Is Not listed on the April 1, 2013 Player Ranking      3.

A third team may not have a player with a lower course handicap than that of the highest course handicapped player on the second team, etc. (GAP Rules permit the course handicap of the highest player on the first team to equal the course handicap of the lowest player on the second team, the highest course handicap player on the second team to match the course handicap of the lowest player on the third team, etc.)    c. The Arrangement of Players within the Team. The arrangement of the players within the team is at the discretion of the Team Captain. The two players that play together against the players of the opposing team (in individual and four-ball matches) can be arranged and pitted against whomever the Captain so chooses. SCORING    a. Person Responsible. The home Team Captain is responsible for:    1. Filling out the result sheet completely and correctly, and posting those scores to the Web site at www.gapgolf.org.    2. If the Team Captain plays away, be sure to appoint a Team Captain at home to enter results.    3. Captains in Division AA, A and B, please post results to the Web site, www.gapgolf.org, immediately upon conclusion of matches.    b. Nassau Points.    1. Nassau Points. One point will be awarded to the winner of the front-nine match, one point to the winner of the back-nine match and one point to the winner of the 18-hole match. All ties will result in each person/team receiving one-half of a point.    Defaulting Team,Defaulting Half Team, Defaulting Pair, Defaulting Player.    1. Entire Team. If an entire team defaults a match, the winner will be credited with 34 points. Clubs with More Than One Team If your Team No. 1 defaults in a given week of the Matches the first 12 course handicapped players from the April 1 Player Ranking are not eligible to play for any other team. If there are multiple players at the highest course handicap it is the decision of the club as to which player(s) is not eligible and which player(s) will compete on the next team. If a lower ranked team (ie. Team No. 2 or 3) defaults in a given week of the Matches, the next 12 lowest course handicapped players are NOT eligible to compete for any other team. If there are multiple players at the highest or lowest course handicap it is the decision of the club as to which player(s) is not eligible and which player(s) will compete on the next team.    Example - Smith Country Club has three teams. The second team defaults the second week of the matches. Team No. 1 course handicaps range from 3 to 6, the next 12 players, by course handicap, listed on your April 1 Player Ranking are not eligible to play for any other team. If there are multiple players at the highest or lowest course handicap it is the decision of the club as to which player(s) is not eligible and which player(s) will compete on the next team. Smith Country Club April 1 GHIN Player Ranking Team #1 – The club has the choice as to which three players holding a 6 Course Handicap (Perna, Dolan, Root or Dorazio) play for Team No. 1 and which one sits out on Team No. 2.    Joseph Costanzo 3    Steve Pence 4    Louis Hoffman 4    Bill Wolhar 4    Jay Kocher 5    Jim Soukup 5    Fred Banta 5    Mark Hodgson 5    Tom Cohen 5    Dennis Perna 6    Lawrence Dolan 6    Gary Root 6 Next 12 Course Handicap players for the defaulting Team No. 2.    Stephen Dorazio 6    Charles Caparo 7    Charles Kraatz 7    Wade Hersperger Jr. 7    Michael Loughery 7    Tim Ungrady 7    Andrew Hamilton, III 7    Conrad Gack 7    Frederick Weiler 7    Robert Mairone 7    Robert Schiller 7    Ed Roberts 7 The Club again has the choice as to which 11 of the 17 players with a 7 Course Handicap sits out on Team No 2. Three of the players with a 7 Course Handicap can play for Team No. 3.    Greg Duffy 7    William Weinfeld 7    George Farley 7    Steve Anuszewski 8    Gary Yeager 8    Robert Berenholz 9    Murray Felzer 9    Frank Petrecco 9    Jeffrey Henderer 9    Steven Owens 9    Ned Lewis 9    Stephen Silvano 9    James Wiley 9    Brendan Kearney 9    Harold Molina 9    Michael McCorriston 10 2. Half Team. If half of a team defaults (the home or away group), the opposing team will win the match, 17 points will be awarded for the default and the points recorded in the portion of the match played will stand. Clubs with More Than One Team : If half of any of your team defaults, the next six players on the April 1 Player Ranking are not eligible to play for any other team. If there are multiple players at the highest or lowest course handicap it is the decision of the club as to which player(s) is not eligible and which player(s) will compete on the next team. Example – Smith Country Club has three teams and the away squad for the second team defaults the second week of the matches. The home squad’s Course Handicaps range from 7 to 9, the next six course handicapped players listed on your April 1 Player Ranking are not eligible to play for any other team, unless there are 12 Course Handicap players between 7 and 9. Smith Country Club April 1 Player Ranking Team No. 1    Joseph Costanzo 3    Steve Pence 4    Louis Hoffman 4    Bill Wolhar 4    Jay Kocher 5    Jim Soukup 5    Fred Banta 5    Mark Hodgson 5    Tom Cohen 5    Dennis Perna 6    Lawrence Dolan 6    Gary Root 6 Team No. 2 playing at home    Stephen Dorazio 7    Charles Caparo 7    Charles Kraatz 7    Wade Hersperger, Jr. 7    Michael Loughery 8    Tim Ungrady 9 Default away squad for Team No. 2. The club would have the choice as to which of the players with a 9 Course Handicap will sit out and which will play for the home team. The club would also have the choice as to which players holding an 11 Course Handicap will sit out and which will compete for Team No. 3.    Andrew Hamilton, III 9    Conrad Gack 9    Frederick Weiler 10    Robert Mairone 10    Robert Schiller 11    Ed Roberts 11 Team No. 3.    Greg Duffy 11    William Weinfeld 11    George Farley 11    Steve Anuszewski 12    Gary Yeager 12    Robert Berenholz 13    Murray Felzer 13    Frank Petrecco 13    Jeffrey Henderer 13    Steven Owens 13    Ned Lewis 13    Stephen Silvano 14    James Wiley 14    3. Pair. If a pair of players is missing, the missing players forfeit 6 total points.    4. One Player. If one pair is only represented by one player the missing player will lose all 3 Nassau points. The representing player will score points for his individual match as well as the four-ball match.    5. Players. If one player from each team is absent at the start of the match, the match shall be played and scored as a singles match only. The Four-Ball match will not be played or scored. When only three players represent EACH side, all matches MUST be scored as Singles matches.    6. Illness, Injury or Emergency. If a player who started a match must withdraw before a match finishes, he shall lose any match that remains to be played or finished. See example below: Q.The "Nassau" System of scoring is used in a Team Match, ie. in each match three points are awarded as follows: one point to the winner of the first nine holes; one point to the winner of the second nine and one point to the winner over 18 holes. In one match, a player who had defeated his opponent on the first nine holes withdrew due to illness during the second nine. Should the player retain the point he won on the first nine, or, since he withdrew, should he lose all three points? A.The player should be awarded one point; his opponent won the other two points by default. SCHEDULING    a. Scheduling Division AA, A and B.    1. Teams that have won their respective challenge match automatically advance.    2. The top slot stays untouched. The second slot moves one position to the right. The third moves two positions to the right. The fourth slot moves three positions to the right.    3. The only time this process is interfered with is when two teams from the same club are slated to play each other.    Scheduling in Division C, D, E, F.    1. Each division winner replaces the last-place finisher in the Division and Section directly above them.    2. The top slot stays untouched. The second slot moves one position to the right. The third slot moves two positions to the right. The fourth slot moves three positions to the right.    3. Finally, the groups are regionalized. During the process, the association makes sure that no team has played the same club in at least the last two years and preferably, not in the last three years.    b. Starting Times. All regular matches shall be completed on the scheduled dates and shall be called by pre-arrangement of the respective Team Captains for no later than 2 p.m. If a team, or half team, is not available at 2p.m., the team that is available at 2 p.m. will earn the default (for scoring, see defaulting team, half team). Tee Times for each team must be in consecutive order.    c. Rainouts. Postponement of any match due to rain is permissible only when a course is declared unplayable by the Green’s Chairman or Golf Course Superintendent of the club involved. All such postponements must be reported to the golf office the following day. Availability of carts/caddies has no bearing on whether or not a match should be played. If a course is open for play the match must be played. In the event of a rainout the makeup must be completed on the following Saturday (or earlier if mutually agreeable) or the match will be scored as a draw with NO points awarded to either team. In the event the teams can't agree on the makeup date, the team available at noon on the Saturday following the rained out match will be declared the winner and the match scored as default. If the required makeup interferes with the Playoff or Challenges, the Playoff or Challenge will be postponed one week. Playoff or Challenges Match Any Playoff or Challenge Match postponed due to course closure shall be played at 2 p.m. on the following Sunday or an earlier,if mutually agreed upon, date. If a team, or half team, is not available at 2 p.m., the team that is available at 2 p.m. will earn the default for scoring, see defaulting team, half team). Complete rainouts of a match can lead to problems rescheduling and difficulty finding available players for clubs that have multiple teams, particularly if the other teams have played their match that week. Therefore, it is suggested that if one club of the match is open, the entire match be played at the open club.    d. Course Closure due to Renovations or Regrassing. It is suggested that if possible some rotation of holes be used to allow the matches be played at the course undergoing the work (18 holes must be played, but not necessarily 18 individual holes). If this is not possible, the entire match must be played at the away club or half the match at a neutral site and half the match away. The club under construction must request entirely away matches if that is a club’s only option. If the entire match can’t be played away, the club under construction will default the match (1/2) team. If both clubs are closed due to Renovations or Re-grassing the entire match may be played at a neutral site. If the match can’t be played at a neutral site the match will be scored as a draw (no points for either team). WINNERS    a. Definition. Any team in a section which wins all three matches will be declared the winners in that section.    b. Ties. In the event of a tie in the number of team wins, the winner shall be determined by the greatest total number of points from the three regular matches. Any further ties are determined by the head-to-head result. PLAYOFF AND CHALLENGE MATCHES    a. Playoff. On Saturday, May 11 at 12 p.m., or earlier if mutually agreeable, the winners of all Sections in Division AA shall play a match to determine the GAP Team Matches Champion. If a team, or half team, is not available at 12 p.m., the team that is available at 12 p.m. will earn the default (for scoring, see defaulting team, half team). The match shall be played by having three men at home and three men away at each course of the competing teams. The round shall consist of 18 holes, individual match play. The group, consisting of four men, one from each team, shall play a singles match against each player in his group. The scoring shall be as in the regular matches. There is no four-ball match.    b. Challenge Matches. There will be eight winners of sections in Division A. On Saturday, May 11 at 1 p.m., or earlier if mutually agreeable, the top four winning teams (by record, then points) in Division A shall challenge the four last-place teams (or fourth-place teams) in Division AA, the next four winning teams shall challenge the four higher ranked teams or third-place teams) to determine the teams which will compete in Division AA and A next year. If a team, or half team, is not available at 1 p.m., the team that is available at 1 p.m. will earn the default (for scoring, see defaulting team, half team). There will be 16 Sectional winners in Division B. The top eight teams (by record, then points) shall challenge the eight last-place teams (or fourth-place teams) of Division A. The bottom eight teams shall challenge the eight higher ranked teams (or third-place teams to determine the teams which will compete in Division A and B next year. All Challenge Matches shall be played and scored the same as the regular matches. Ties for ranking Teams will be decided by record, then by total accumulated points, then by total match points for the season, then by total match points for Week #3, total match points for Week #2, total match points for Week #1.    * Clubs with Second or Lower Team Involved in Challenge – If your second, third or fourth team has a Challenge Match, the course handicaps of the players involved must not be lower than that of the lowest Course Handicap player to participate on that team during the three weeks of the GAP Team Matches.    c. Divisions C, D, E & F. The winners in Divisions C, D & E will automatically take the place of the last-place team of the division above. No Challenge Match or Playoff will take place. The winner and runner-up in each section of Division F will replace the lowest ranked teams in Division E. This will continue until there are six Sections in Division F. Teams will be ranked in Division E first by record then by total points. WITHDRAWALS IN COMPETITIVE LEVELS (AA, A AND B)    Prior to Entry Close If a club drops out of the Team Matches, the Association will move a team up a Division that was scheduled to move down. If more than one team falls into this category, the team must be decided by lot.    After Entry Close. If a club drops out of the Team Matches, all of the matches against this team will be played as default. In order to fill that spot, the highest seed from the Division below will fill the position without a challenge match. In the case where this club would then fill a spot in AA, the highest ranked third-place team will assume the No. 1 spot in A and the highest ranked B team will then fill that spot with no Challenge Match. COURSE SETUP   Course setup can have the largest role in the enjoyment and pace of play of the GAP Team Matches. Please keep this in mind when preparing your courses for the Matches.    a. April 21, 28 & May 5 Matches. Division AA, A & B must use the back tees (suggested yardage is 6,700-7,000 or tips for shorter courses). Division C, D, E & F should play the member tees (suggested yardage is 6,200-6,500 or member tees).    b. Playoff and Challenge Matches. All Playoff and Challenges matches should use the back tees. CONDITIONS OF THE GAP TEAM MATCHES    Beginning in 2011, with regard to Decision 30-3/1, partners may exchange advice up until the conclusion of the four-ball match.    Revised Decision 30-3/1 Examples of Rulings in Four-Ball Match with Concurrent Singles Matches   When players are involved in concurrent matches, whenever possible the Rules are applied only to the match affected. When it is not possible to separate the matches, the four-ball match takes precedence. A and B are playing C and D in a four-ball match. There are also concurrent singles matches between A and C and between B and D. The following are examples of the application of the Rules in such a format: 1. A concedes the match, a hole, or a stroke to C but stipulates that the concession is solely for their singles match. The concession is not valid in the four-ball match. 2. A concedes the match, a hole, or a stroke to C and does not specify which match the concession is intended for. The concession applies to both the four-ball and the singles matches. 3. A concedes the match, a hole, or a stroke to D. The concession applies only to the four-ball match as A has no authority to make a concession in the B-D singles match. 4. The balls of all four players lie on the putting green and A's ball is the farthest from the hole with B's ball on the same line. Side C-D concedes B's next stroke for the four-ball match only, but B goes ahead and putts before A. In the four-ball match, A is disqualified for the hole (see Decision 2-4/6). 5. B moves A's ball without authority under the Rules. In the four-ball match, A incurs a penalty stroke (Rule 18-2a) but, in his singles match against C, he incurs no penalty. B incurs no penalty in any match. 6. Other than during search, A moves D's ball. In the four-ball match, A incurs a penalty stroke (Rule 18-3b) but, in his singles match against C, he incurs no penalty. 7. On the 3rd hole it is discovered that B started his round with 15 clubs. In the four-ball match, Side A-B has two holes deducted from the state of the match (Rules 4-4a and 30-3d) after the 3rd hole. B has two holes deducted from the state of his singles match against D. A incurs no penalty in his singles match against C. 8. During the round, B made a stroke with a non-conforming club. In the four-ball match, Side A-B is disqualified (Rules 4-1 and 30-3e). B is disqualified in his singles match against D. A incurs no penalty in his singles match against C. 9. On the 5th hole, B holes out in 3 to win the hole for Side A-B in the four-ball match. A has a putt left to win or halve the hole in his singles match against C and asks B for advice. There is no penalty to either player. A and B may exchange advice at any time until the four-ball match has been concluded, at which point A and B are no longer partners.    a. List of Conforming Golf Balls - The optional condition as prescribed in Appendix I is in effect.    b. List of Conforming Driver Heads - Optional condition as prescribed in Appendix I is in effect.    In four-ball match play, A and B are playing with C and D. They have been given a starting time of 9 a.m. D arrives at 9:01 a.m. after A has played but before B and C have played. May D play the first hole?    D has been disqualified for play of the first hole.    What if D arrived 30 minutes later?    A side may be represented by one partner for all or any part of a match; all partners not be present. An absent partner may join a match between holes, but not during play of a hole. D would be deemed to have lost all Nassau points in his individual match.    What happens to the singles match in these situations?    In the first situation, D has lost the first hole because he is late for his starting time. He will be able to complete the rest of the match starting on the second hole because he has arrived and is ready to play within five minutes of his starting time. (This because the condition listed above is in effect) In the second situation, D has forfeited his singles match and can only rejoin the four-ball match.    d. Pace of Play - In the GAP Team Matches, the format is singles match and four-ball match play. The rules governing four-ball match play take precedence over the rules of Individual match play. If a player were to be warned and later penalized for slow play, he and his partner would lose the hole for the four-ball and he would also lose the hole for his Individual match. If that same player were to be later disqualified, he would be disqualified from both his individual match and he and his partner would be disqualified from their four-ball match. In the disqualification situation, any points already scored in the Nassau would stand as scored. Please check with host club prior to tee off for its individual club policy.    Example 1    Kirby and Mark are playing together against Mike and Marty. Kirby has an individual match with Mike and Mark has an individual match with Marty. On the fifth hole, Kirby and Mark are 2-up on Mike and Marty. Kirby is 1-up on Mike and Mark is 3-up on Marty. On that hole Kirby is penalized for undue delay (slow play) after being warned on the third hole. Kirby and Mark are now 1-up on the sixth tee in the four-ball. Kirby is now all square with Mike on the sixth tee and Mark still needs to finish the hole against Marty to determine how their match will stand on the sixth tee.    Example 2    In that same situation, Kirby is again warned for slow play on the 8th tee and later is disqualified on the 12th hole. Kirby and Mark will lose 2 Nassau points in the four-ball match and Kirby will have lost 2 Nassau points in the individual match with Mike. Mark will have to play his match out with Marty to determine their final score.    e. Transportation - Caddies and/or carts may be unavailable depending on the host club. Each home Team Captain will be responsible for coordinating caddie requests with visiting Captains and arranging for those caddies to be available. Motorized equipment may be used, if desired, in the GAP Team Matches. Financial responsibility for carts, caddies, or carts and caddies, lies with the player.    f. Practice - Rule 7-1a covers practice before the round in match play.    g. Close of Competition - Each week’s competition shall be deemed to have closed the Wednesday after each match at 4:30 p.m. unless there were weather issues in which case that week shall be deemed to have closed when the scores from that week have been announced.    h. Electronic Distance-Measuring Devices - For play in the GAP Team Matches, a player may obtain distance information by using a device that measures distance only. However, if, during a stipulated round, a player uses a distance-measuring device that is designed to gauge or measure other conditions that might affect his play (e.g., gradient, wind-speed, temperatures, etc.), the player is in breach of Rule 14-3, for which the penalty is disqualification of the side, regardless of whether any such additional functions are actually used. Host club policy not in effect. LOCAL RULES    It is suggested that each member club supply the matches with a local rules sheet. The local rules should cover items such as: How is out of bounds defined. Pace of Play Policy. Water and Lateral Water Hazard drop areas. Discontinuance of Play. How is ground under repair defined. Obstructions. Preferred lies/Winter rules. MISCELLANEOUS    a. Practice Rounds. Practice rounds are not part of the GAP Team Matches and will not be provided.    b. Entertainment. Entertainment following the matches is to be “Stag” only and should be kept to a minimum.    c. Dress Code. Players are required to observe good taste and dress appropriately for the golf course. Items of clothing such as cargo pants and shorts (baggy clothing with large pockets in the knee area), blue jeans, short-shorts (bottom of shorts may be no higher than two inches from the top of the knee), tank tops, etc., are considered inappropriate. It will be the host clubs responsibility to enforce the dress code. Most clubs require a jacket and tie after 5 p.m. It is appropriate that individuals be prepared for this rule when visiting a GAP Member Club. Check with the host club Captain for specifics.    d. Web Site Score Posting. Team Captains/Golf Professionals have received detailed information on Web score posting. Team Captains MUST log on the Golf Association of Philadelphia Web site, www.gapgolf.org, and post their scores immediately upon the conclusion of that day’s match.    e. Fax Results to GAP. If unable to post scores via the Web site, result sheets can be faxed to the Association. The GAP fax number is 610-687-2082. When faxing to GAP, please use black pen (No felt tips or pencils), print clearly using GHIN #’s, first and last names of players and their handicaps. Do not fax a cover sheet.    f. GAP Team Matches Results. All results will be posted to our Web site, www.gapgolf.org, and results are unofficial until 4:30 p.m. Wednesday. Once declared official, results are final.    g.
