2020 Member Event Introductory

2020 is shaping up to be a year full of great golf and fun! If all you want to do is golf, all

you want to do is here. We are scheduled to have all kinds of events that can be fun for all! We

will host golf competitions for all varying ages and skills, so who is ready to play?

There have been several improvements to the facilities since 2017, with the cost

exceeding close to $600,000. The greens were converted from the aging bent grass to the

fantastic Champion Ultra Dwarf Bermuda. The roofs were replaced on the range building and the

on-course bathroom facility. The windows as well as the front doors were replaced in the

clubhouse. The steps to the back patio of the clubhouse and the front steps from the parking lot

were repaired. Several tee-boxes on the course were sodded and over 100 trees were removed to

help with sunlight for turf growth. Irrigation improvements were made all over the course and

the clubhouse grounds which will help tremendously in dry times of the year. A new practice

putting green was installed behind the driving range and improvements to the landscape were

made around the clubhouse and throughout the course. The renovations did not stop there. Last

year, 2019, we started on our cart path improvement plan. We also started replacing and

installing railroad ties and upgrading the facility with new landscaping and individual irrigation

heads. As you can see there is a lot of work going on at Wildwood Green in order to improve our

services and the experience of being a member!

We have many popular events scheduled this year which include a Ryder Cup event,

Masters Par 3 Contest, Drive Chip Putt, 18-hole and 9-hole Couples Events, PGA Pools, and so

much more. We hope everyone enjoys our robust member events schedule this year! See page(s)

7-8 on information regarding tournaments, handicapping, flighting, and handicap allowances to

be sure you are well informed about how we execute our events.

Thank you so much for being a member at Wildwood Green Golf Club and please help us

by continuing to fill out comment cards. Let us know how we can continue to improve our

events!

Tournament Information, Flighting Information, & Regulations

Wildwood Green will post all scores for events. Competition Tees: Each competitor’s set of tees to be played will be assigned to the competitor based on the set of tees most commonly played from in their most recent handicap revision. In the event other courses have been played, the staff will assign a tee based on the other course’s rating closest to that of a set of tees at Wildwood Green. Event Flighting: Events will be flighted in the Spring & Fall Member-Member events, the Tournament of Champions event, and the Club Championship. For other club events flights will depend on field size. When there are 15 or more teams (30+ competitors) flights will be created and broken down as evenly as possible.

Flight Basis: Flights will be created by the lower handicap index of the team using the 12 month low handicap index of the individual as of the day of the signup deadline. Handicap Indexes: The handicap index used for the event competitor will be the handicap index of each person on the day of the event signup deadline. Gross Payouts – Gross will only be paid out in Flight 1 of a flighted event. Handicap Allowances: *Please see the attached Appendix C document from the USGA regarding handicap allowances* Net handicaps when playing your own ball with a partner(s) will be reduced by 10% or 5% depending on your gender. 90% of the course handicap will be used for male competitors and 95% of the course handicap will be used for female competitors.

During net events where competitors play their own ball, if the difference between the two teammates’ course handicap is more than 8 strokes after the 10% or 5% allowance, we will subtract an additional 10% from both players.

50% of the male competitor’s course handicap will be used and 55% of the female’s course handicap will be used in a Texas Scramble format.

10% of the combined team course handicap will be used in an 18 Hole Scramble format.

5% of the combined team course handicap will be used in a 9 Hole Scramble format.

During match play events, each competitor will receive 100% of their course handicap and then the low course handicap will play as a zero and the higher course handicap will receive the difference in strokes.

Appendix C: Handicap Allowances

Handicap allowances are designed to provide equity for players of all levels of ability in each format of play, over both 9 holes and 18 holes. Handicap allowances are applied to the Course Handicap as the final step in calculating a player’s Playing Handicap (see Rule 6.1 Course Handicap Calculation and Rule 6.2 Playing Handicap Calculation).

The National Association is responsible for establishing handicap allowances or it can delegate this responsibility to a Regional Golf Association or golf club.

The following table sets out the recommended handicap allowances based on medium-sized field net events. The allowances may be adjusted based on field size and the desired equity (see Interpretation C/1 ):

Format of Play Type of Round Recommended Handicap Allowance

Stroke play

Individual 95%

Individual Stableford 95%

Individual Par/Bogey 95%

Individual Maximum Score 95%

Four-Ball 85%

Four-Ball Stableford 85%

Four-Ball Par/Bogey 90%

Match Play

Individual 100%

Four-Ball 90%

Other

Foursomes 50% of combined team handicap

Greensomes 60% low handicap + 40% high handicap

Pinehurst/Chapman 60% low handicap + 40% high handicap

Best 1 of 4 stroke play 75%

Best 2 of 4 stroke play 85%

Best 3 of 4 stroke play 100%

All 4 of 4 stroke play 100%

Scramble (4 players) 25%/20%/15%/10%

from lowest to highest handicap

Scramble (2 players) 35% low/15% high

Total score of 2 match play 100%

Best 1 of 4 Par/Bogey 75%

Best 2 of 4 Par/Bogey 80%

Best 3 of 4 Par/Bogey 90%

4 of 4 Par/Bogey 100%

Unless otherwise specified by the Committee, players with a ‘plus’ Playing Handicap give strokes back to the course, beginning at the hole with stroke index 18. For example, a player with a Playing Handicap of +2 would give strokes back to the course at the holes with stroke index 18 and 17. When handicap allowances are applied, a player with a plus Playing Handicap moves up towards zero including rounding. This is to maintain the same relative difference between Playing Handicaps.

Social Events

We have many social events planned this year. Our goal is to eventually become a private

golf club so we are going to host more social events while working towards our goal. The most

popular social event we hold year after year is our poker nights which are scheduled throughout

the fall and winter months. With golf and social events scheduled year-round your enjoyment at

the club never ends! If there are any social events that you would like to see added to our event

schedule, please fill out a comment card with your requests. More information about a few of

these special social events can be found below.

Poker Night: The game of Texas Hold ‘Em is played at all of our scheduled poker

nights. The participants will be the dealers for the games throughout the evening. Food and

drinks are not included in the entry fee but will be available to purchase throughout the night.

Member Holiday Party: Why just spend the holidays with family, when you can rejoice

with your club family as well? The Member Holiday Party is the perfect scene to have fun and

fellowship during the holiday season. This night will not be silent as we listen to Christmas

songs and have some laughs! Secret Santa will also be played during the night as well as door

prizes being handed out. Drink specials will be offered and food will be included with the event!

Cookouts: Can you name anything better than hanging out with good friends, sharing

laughs, and enjoying a delicious Champions Grille burger or hotdog? Neither can I! Cookouts

will be hosted by Champions Grille to give you all the opportunity to fellowship with one

another and have a great time. Don’t miss out on all the fun!

Couples Golf

We host our Couples Golf events throughout the Fall, Spring and Summer seasons. These 9-hole

golf events are always a fun way to meet other couples at the club. We have had incredible

participation over the past few years and it seems that every year the participation grows and it

has turned into our most popular 9-hole competition. Our couple’s events are held Sunday

evenings and then followed by a delicious dinner either provided by Champions Grill or catered.

This year we have included an 18-hole couples Member-Guest to kick off the season!

The format for most of our couple events is a four-person team, net captain’s choice. Two

couples will be paired together and a percentage of their team handicap is factored in to get their

final net score. During the golf tournament we host proximity games for both men and women

and prizes will be available for each. Spouses who do not play golf are welcome to join us for

dinner after play for a small fee. We hope to see all the couples out at these events this year!

Club Championship

Saturday & Sunday, August 1st and 2

nd

The most prestigious title at Wildwood

Green has to be the title of Club Champion. This

two-day stroke play competition, which sees the

club’s best golfers, will undoubtedly see great scores

again in 2020. The Club Championship will be

flighted by age and then by handicap. Flight size is

solely dependent on how many people sign up in the

age division. No handicap will be used in

competition and men and women will compete in

separate flights.

We will also host a net division Club

Championship and anyone who has a GHIN

handicap is allowed to compete in the net division.

The net division will not be broken down into flights instead

it will be created with one flight. Everyone playing in the net

division will use a percentage of their course handicap. The

difference in tee ratings will be factored in to the handicaps

however, to be crowned the overall men’s or women’s

champion, you must play from the blue tee markers and the

red tee markers respectively and in the gross division

50/50 Weekly Member Raffle

We will host a 50/50 weekly member raffle in order to help raise money for

improvements around the Wildwood Green facility. Improvements will be determined from

customer comment cards and what is feasible for the club to accomplish.

The drawing will occur at 4:00 PM each Friday throughout the year. There is one poker

chip per membership in the bowl and each membership has been assigned a number which

corresponds to what is written on the poker chip. Poker chips are placed into the bowl and a

member will draw one chip from the bowl. (Participants must pay their $5 entry each week to

be eligible to win.) Each Friday when the chip is drawn, we will check the number on the chip

and then find out which membership that corresponds with. If the membership has paid their $5

entry for that week, they win 50% of the pool. Each week Wildwood Green will take 50% of the

entries. (If the membership did not pay their entry that week and no winner is determined

for the week and the money carries over to the next week.) Members have the option to

prepay their $5 for the year if they would like.

With almost two years under our belt hosting the 50/50 raffle (first drawing was February

9th, 2018) we have raised a total of $31,985 from our members. Out of this total we have paid

out $16,192.50 in winnings. In 2019 we added benches throughout the course and we installed an

ice-water machine at the half way house. That machine was brought inside for the winter (to

avoid the lines freezing). Our plans are to keep the ice-water machine installed in Champions

Grille and purchase an additional one for the halfway house this spring. This means you will

have easy access to tasty ice-water when you are at both the halfway house and the clubhouse.

Keep entering each week and help us improve the facility...you might be another lucky one who

takes home thousands of dollars!
