Teams are pre-flighted according to total team course handicap. Partner substitutions made within five days of the tournament date must be approved in advance by the CGA office. Any on-site partner substitutions result in the new partner playing at scratch and the team competing within the same flight. Competitors must subscribe to all host club restrictions concerning dress, coolers, etc. Cart rental and use is mandatory for tournament rounds.
