    CUSTOMERS TESTIMONIALS

     

    James and I really enjoyed playing through the Winter Matchplay. It was challenging to get the games in due the wet weather. We had 4 great rounds including 3 matches ‘away’ and the final at our home course, which we won after the 20th hole Winning the East Midlands division. We look forward to playing in the summer competition at Royal Lytham.
    By Phil Baley

     

    We received a bye on our first round and were drawn away for round 2. We played at a course around 10 miles away and opponents were a joy to play with. In the end, we lost but we made some friends and playing partners for life. I wish them all the best for the rest of our tournament.
    By Greg Mcfowley

     

    This is the first time we have entered the Mizuno pairs, and we loved every minute. We played 3 rounds all against Men and we have to say every pair was so friendly, and very complimentary when we won.
    I would encourage more women to enter this enjoyable competition, you will not be disappointed. We have already entered the summer tournament.

    • Better Ball Pairs Matchplay - following CONGU WHS handicapping rules.
      Please refer to our WHS Handicapping Guidance document for more information.

    • To participate you need an official CONGU WHS handicap and for you and your partner to have played 3 x formal competition rounds in the 12 months preceding the event. A competition round is not a social round - it's a formal competition arranged and administered by a recognised body such as a golf club.

    • There is no limit in our competition at present. When our competition is big enough. we will look to run flighted draws, where we draw people with similar handicaps in the same brackets. We are unlikely to get there in 2022 but this is part of our long term plan for MGPT matchplay.

    • You will be drawn home or away for each round and both teams will be given contact information to arrange the match, although the onus is on the home team to make contact since the home team will be booking the tees. If the home team does not reach out or the deadline is not met, the away team will progress unless evidence of attempted contact is given.

    • Many golf clubs offer courtesy and are happy to do this because their members will mutually benefit when playing away elsewhere, but some clubs will not permit this. If courtesy is not possible then we recommend the visitor fees being split four ways, but if not then the away team will need to pay a visitor fee to the club as per normal golf club policies.

    • All rounds will be drawn based on geographical proximity while avoiding matches between teams from the same club. On the odd occasion, if you're drawn away you may end up a bit further out as you progress through the rounds. We always do our best to keep people as local as possible.

    • The Tournament is open to male and female golfers aged 14 and over on the Commencement. Date who are members of a CONGU affiliated golf club in England, Scotland or Wales, or professionals. Under 18s must play with over 18s. Mixed gender pairs are also welcome.
