Please review the Notice to Players under "Event Notices" at the top of the page.   Players are responsible for becoming familiar with any local rules in use on the day of play.   If there are adjustments to this Notice to Players, changes will be reviewed at the first tee meeting and/or printed in handout form.  

Score Posting: 

The player's official scores will be those posted in Golf Genius.   Teams are responsible for ensuring that the Golf Genius scores reconcile to any paper scores kept.  There will be a scoring table at the conclusion of the round, and a representative from each team must certify scores there.  Unless the Event format is a shamble/scramble, scores will be automatically posted to GHIN following the round by the NASMGA Golf Genius team.
