Rules
- Please review USGA Match Play Rules, as they will be in effect for this championship.
- Lower seed determines course for the match.
- Tee selection is determined by each competitor.
- Playing handicap can be calculated using the NCGA app. This should take into account tee selection and men and women slope/ratings.
- Tie breakers are ordinarily done by playing extra holes. If that is not possible, we look at the #1 handicap hole based off the player getting strokes. If there is a tie, look at hole #2, and so on.
