Format: Match Play  
The league is made up of 32 two-man teams broken into two flights, based on the low handicap player of each team. Teams will be competing in a 9-hole match for 11 points. The team (net) match is worth 1 point per hole for a total of nine and 2 points are awarded for gross total. At the end of each five-week period there will be a Bud Light Fun Night/party with awards for the best performing teams in each flight for that period. Teams will be awarded 11-points for participation in fun night and there will be additional prizes for winners. The eight teams in each flight with the best cumulative totals will advance into the playoffs. Playoffs will commence August 30th.

Bud Light Fun Night:
May 10th – 2 club team scramble (each player selects 2 clubs)
June 14th – Alternate shot
July 19th  – Chapman
August 23rd – Scramble (full bag)
September 13th – Yearend Scramble (4 man) and BBQ – all players

Handicaps:
One half of the IGA handicap (nine hole match) will be used for all players.  A maximum of 4 strokes (for nine holes) between partners is allowed (higher handicap players will be reduced to meet this requirement).  All players must have a current IGA handicap. The Falcon Crest staff will compute handicaps for league play and post nine-hole scores in the IGA system. 

Substitutions:
It is recommended that each team register 3 players to avoid the need for substitutions.  A team with three players chooses which team members will play weekly matches.  A league player may substitute for any team until the fourth five-week period, when subs are not allowed.  Teams are allowed to use a sub that is not a member of the Bud Light League (during the first three periods), however, outside players will play with a zero handicap.  A team cannot be made up of two subs on any given night.   

No Shows:
When a team’s opponents fail to show, the team will be required to play their net best ball against par for one point per hole and automatically awarded the 2 gross points.  The no-show team will be given a score of –1.

Penalties: If an entire team misses more than two league nights the team is eliminated from league – no refunds will be given!
