Lombard Trophy
This week Pete Dove and I had an enjoyable round when we played in the Regional Qualifier for the Lombard Trophy at Little Aston Golf Club. We scored a respectful four under par betterball score of 68, unfortunately we trailed the winners by seven shots who shot a fantastic score of 61.
Supplementary Score
Having spoken to many of you, I have realised that not many people know about the supplementary score procedure. For those of you who struggle to play in the Saturday and Thursday Medals, this option is there for you to play a counting card for handicap to use at any time. Obviously there are guidelines so I've outlined the important things below.
How to play a counting supplementary score(This option is only available to handicaps 6 and above - Not available for Cat 1 golfers):
Come into the pro shop and state you would like to do a supplementary score. This is you stating your intention to submit a score for handicap. No card will be accepted unless this is done prior to your round.
Play your round stating which tee/course you've chosen to play (Yellow or white only).
Hand scorecard back in to pro shop - All scores count good and bad and your handicap will be adjusted accordingly.
Scores measured against the SSS of course played.
Weather conditions or other scores are not taken into account.
You can play a maximum of 10 extra supplementary cards in a season.
Restricted to one per week.
If you are still unsure and would like me to explain in to you in more detail, please pop into the pro shop next time you are down at the club.
