Deanwood are now able to run 9 hole qualifying stableford competitions!!! The new rules take account of peoples modern busy lifestyles and being a 9 hole course we are able to take full advantage of this.
The competitions have there own handicap calculations but in essence you play 9 holes and have a neutral 18 points added to your 9 holes to make an 18 hole score.
The club will be hosting regular events that you can join in with or we can arrange events just for your group/society. We will also be organising “Open” competitions so that players from other local clubs can join in.
See noticeboards for event notifications.
Nitty Gritty
The 9 hole competitions require a different card to the normal 18 hole card because the stroke index is different as it reflects the difficulty of each hole. A copy of the cards can be seen below.
To enable you to card an 18 hole score for handicapping, and in this case results purposes, all competitors are given a neautral 18 points as a back 9 score. Consequently and to take account of the obvious advantages of only playing 9 holes there is a handicap calculation specifically for 9 hole stablefords.
