If you or your team need to miss a league round – there are a couple of options that we have listed here:

1. 1. You are welcome to bring a sub to fill in for your spot for any regular season league round
   2. Teams are able to reschedule two regular season league rounds at no extra charge. If you need to do this, make sure to reach out to your local league coordinator with your preferred day/time to reschedule the round to.

(a) Any rounds rescheduled after the two free rounds have been used will cost 50% of the simulator rental fee

Entry will include:

6 Weeks of Play Guaranteed

Changing Food & Drink Specials each week

Opportunity to win Closest-to-the-pin prizes

The chance to compete in a CTP contest on week 1 to win a trip to Casa de Campo!

Teams in the Open division will compete against all other teams in their division in their location

Teams in the Championship division will compete against all teams in their division across the country

Each week, teams will play 9 holes on a designated course with rotating formats

Players will putt with 12-foot gimmies (TrackMan) or 10-foot gimmies (Full Swing)

The Spring Season is a no handicap event. Rather, all teams make the playoffs. Teams in the social division will compete in the playoffs against all other teams at their location. Teams in the competitive division will compete in the playoffs against all teams nationally.

Play runs for 6 weeks, with 5 weeks of regular season, and 1 week of playoffs

Males and Females will each play a tee box decided by Five Iron for each course specifically, decided week to week. Males generally will play from a tee box that is the 2nd or 3rd longest tee box, depending on the course. Females generally will play from the most forward tee box on the course, with the exception of courses that offer junior tee boxes.

Males over the age of 65 will be allowed to play from the next shortest tee box of where the male teams are playing that week. The same will be true for women over the age of 65 if there is a tee box that is further up. If women are playing from the shortest tee box offered on that course then all women will play from the same distance.

Each week on Friday, a newsletter will be sent out detailing the next week’s course, format, drink specials, and prizes.

Each week teams will come in at their designated time and be directed to their simulator

Teams will be given scorecards and set up for the round by the local league coordinator

Once your round is finished, make sure to leave the scorecard up on the screen so the staff can verify your score

Each week your team’s score will be your score to par for that week. (i.e. if you scored -2 the first week and then -4 the second week, you season score would be -6)

The Tiebreaker is:

Total of the last 6 holes

Total of the last 3 holes

Total of the last hole

Sudden Death Matchplay from the last hole backwards

In the result that there is still a tie after these measures, the winner will be the team with the better overall season score at that point.

If there is still a tie after this, whoever had the lowest score in week 1 is the winner, if the same then the best score in week 2 is the winner, etc. until a winner is decided.

After the regular season comes to an end, all teams will advance to the playoffs during week 6. Teams can gains strokes in the playoffs based on their position on the regular season leaderboard, laid out here:

1st and 2nd place team nationally: Starts tournament round at -3

3rd, 4th, and 5th place team nationally: Start tournament at -2

6th, 7th, and 8th place team nationally: Start tournament at -1

In the event of a tie on the leaderboard at the end of the regular season, team scores will be compared week by week starting at week 5 and going backwards. If a team scored lower in week 6 – they will be placed in the higher spot. If the teams tied in week 5, week 4 scores will be compared, to decide the higher position, etc…

In the playoffs – teams will compete in the 3 ball best ball format. The top 8 finishing teams in the playoffs will advance to the National Championship on July 2nd, 2024. The National Championship will be held in the 3 ball best ball format, over 9 holes. If there is a tie after the 9 holes, a sudden death playoff will be held. Finally – our National Champion will be headed down to Casa de Campo for the trip of a lifetime!

After the regular season comes to an end, there will be playoff week during week 6. Teams in the social division will compete against all other teams in their location – and the winner will take home an Open bar event for 20 people, in 2 simulators, for 2 hours!

In the event of a tie, teams will enter a scorecard playoff. The Tiebreaker is:

Total of the last 6 holes

Total of the last 3 holes

Total of the last hole

Sudden Death Matchplay from the last hole backwards

There are Closest to the Pin prizes for teams in each location every week of the season!

On week 1 all players will have the chance to take one shot at hitting it tight on the 7th hole of Teeth of the Dog. Teams will have a chance to compete in this either before, during, or after their round

The local league coordinator will set everyone up on the competition – and the winner will be on their way down to Casa de Campo for a trip for 2!

Every free agent and team who has signed up on or before 5/13 and has paid their entry fee before the first week of the competition

Five Iron Staff are welcome to play in any league season – but they, and their team, will be disqualified from any prizing associated with the league

Any team with 5i staff members advancing to the playoffs/national championship will be replaced with the next best team on the leaderboard
