2-player Team Best-Ball Stroke Play Rules

  • Each player plays their own ball and must play out the hole. Trackman will automatically record gross and net scores on each hole.
  • Final team score is lowest net score for a single player on the 2-player team.
  • Net team score is determined by a single player’s best gross score (minus) Trackman hole handicaps. Hole handicaps are assigned a single stroke at a time to the hardest holes first. Net team score is totaled for all 9 holes.
    • Player B has a 9-hole handicap of 12. They receive 2 handicap strokes on each of the three hardest of the 9 holes and 1 handicap stroke on the remaining 6 holes. Player A has a 9-hole handicap of 2. They receive 1 handicap stroke on the two hardest holes (handicap ranked 1 hardest to 18 easiest).
    • Hole #1 (a par 4) is the 3rd hardest hole for the 9-holes. Player B scores a 6 for a net score of 4 (-2 handicap strokes given). Player A scores a 5 for a net score of 5 (no handicap stroke given). The team net score is 4 for the hole.
    • As a team, they net score 4, 3, 5, 4, 4, 5, 4, 3, 3 for a total net team score of 35 (-1 under par).
  • Top 8 teams advance to 3-week single elimination playoffs. Should one of the top 8 teams elect to not participate in the playoffs, the next ranked team will be invited to participate.

Additional Rules for 2023 Indoor Golf League:

  • Ties: In the event of a tie, those teams will split the payout and points for that place and the subsequent place or places (based on the number of teams that tie).
    • if two teams tie for 1st place, those teams split 1st and 2nd place payouts and points The next lowest score team will receive 3rd place payout and points.
  • Alternates/ subs: Each player is responsible for finding their own substitute/ alternate player. Original absent player is still responsible for all league and bay time fees.
  • Teams of one: If only one original team player is playing, that player can play both shots but will receive a handicap of 0 for the second player. (Reason: it is advantageous to be able to hit the same shot twice, thus wiping out all handicap benefits).
  • Handicaps: Trackman Indoor Golf System handicaps will be used each week and will adjust weekly. If a Trackman IGS handicap is not established, first alternate is a GHIN/USGA handicap. Second alternate handicap is calculated once player has completed at least two weeks of league play and a handicap can be calculated. Third alternate handicap is a default handicap of 4.5 will be used until the player has established a Trackman IGS handicap.
