Club Matchplay Competitions

competition.

between the players’ course handicaps
Kinnermit Trophy – half the difference of the combined course handicaps of each pairing
Turriff Tyres Trophy – half the difference of the combined course handicaps of each pairing
McVitie & Price Cup – 60% of the lower course handicap combined with 40% of the higher course handicap in each
pairing. Total rounded to nearest whole number.
