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, and are detailed below.
Friday 21 April (alternate Sunday 16 April) - Round 1 - Rosemount
Friday 28 April (alternate Sunday 23 April) - Round 2 - Lansdowne
Friday 5 May (alternate Sunday 30 April) - Round 3 - Lansdowne
Friday 12 May (alternate Sunday 7 May) - Round 4 - Rosemount
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 Championship. After the Championship qualifiers have been selected, the 8 players with the best nett scores from Divisions 1, 2 & 3 combined will qualify to play for Sophie's Trophy.
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 Rosemount, with the final of all three competitions to be held on Sunday 18 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 or not 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.
