1. The Retired Golfers Association will be comprised of twenty golfers organized into one division based on last years averages.

 
2. Matches are scheduled for each Thursday beginning in May and ending in September.

 
3. Each week every golfer is competing against every other golfer with a handicap based on the low average golfer in the league and the slope and course length.

 
4. Players will use last years averages until three scores are posted.

 
5. After each outing the scores are adjusted for handicaps and ranked with the lowest score receiving 20 individual points and so on down the ranking.

 
6. These individual points are accumulated throughout the league season and will determine final distribution of money and awards.

 
7. All golfers will play the ball as it lies. No touching from tee to green, unless referee says you may pick, clean, and place. Referee will be the golfer number for the week number.

 
8. Sand trap exception: if your ball lies in the sand that was not properly raked, you may pick up, rake, and place ball with no penalty.

 
9. At the last scheduled match of the season, the top four golfers will receive prizes. Everyone will participate in the league most under average tournament.

 
10 . Postponement of any league match will be determined by the commissioner.

 
11. An absent golfer with no sub will automatically be last in the weekly rankings.

 
12. Subs receive 50% handicap.

 
13. Unless otherwise specified, all rules of play will be according to the U.S. Golf Association.

 
14. Each match will have a $ 5 closest to the pin award on the shortest par three and a $ 5 most under average award. Only league members may win the most under average award.

 
15. In case of rain the commissioner will determine play. Usually, the league will not play in a steady rain. In order for the round to count, at least nine holes must be played by everyone. If it rains after nine holes have been played and play is halted, the scores will be adjusted for 18 holes. In case of               lightning, everyone must leave the course immediately.

 
16. All RGA members will play from the white tees unless commissioner moves everyone to the senior tees.

 
17. The purpose of the Retired Golfers Association is to have fun playing golf as our skills and talents are developed.
