CLUB CHAMPIONSHIPS QUALIFYING COMPETITIONS

The Club Championships are the most prestigious of the golfing year.  Here is an outline of the rules. 

There are four qualifying rounds for the Club Championships - two on Rosemount and two on Lansdowne - which can be played on the main competition days or the Alternate days as per the fixture card.

Two best gross scores qualify, one from Rosemount and one from Lansdowne.  8 players from Division 1 go into the draw for the Club Championship.  Likewise, 8 players from Division 2/3 combined qualify for the Division 2 (formerly Bronze) championship.  The next 8 players with the next best nett scores qualify for Sophie's Trophy, which is a handicapped competition.

Once all the qualifying rounds have taken place, the draws will be made and the players advised.  The Club Championship and Division 2 Championship are played as scratch knockouts, whilst Sophie's Trophy qualifiers play a handicapped knockout.  This year the knockout rounds and finals are to be played on Lansdowne.

The finals of all three competitions are to be held this year on Sunday 19th June.  If you wish to enter these competitions, you must be available on this date.  When playing in the qualifying rounds, please let the starter know whether you wish to enter the championships.

Full details of these and all Ladies Competitions can be found in the folder in the Ladies Locker Room.
