Individual Stableford |
No handicap limit. Full handicap at start of calendar year |
Played over the year from January to December. A very, very cheap prize is awarded by the captain to the player ranked highest in the EGGS informal individual Stableford competitions which are played during the year. Each player starts the year with an EGGS handicap which is their current club handicap. The winning player in each competition has 3 points deducted from his EGGS handicap, and the runner-up has 2 points deducted. The deduction only applies if there are at least six players on any one day. The overall winner is the player who has had the most points deducted – relatively and absolutely. |
