Tournament Registration

Sign-ups for all Allendale Golf Tournaments will be completed online via our website or by registering in the pro shop.  

Please go to https://www.allendalecc.net/tournament-corner/ to review our tournament schedule and register. Please follow the instructions to register.

Registrations close two weeks prior to an event.  All entry fees will be automatically billed to member golf accounts once registration has closed or full.  All member & guest golf registrations require a current USGA GHIN golf handicap to compete in any competitions.

Tees: Competitors will play from tees based on the following formula for all tournaments unless noted otherwise:

Handicap Index (GHIN) + Age = Adjusted Tee

Adjusted Tee Definitions

Blue Tees - anyone with an Adjusted Tee Number of 71 and below*

Gold Tees - anyone with an Adjusted Tee Number of 72 to 79*

Silver Tees - anyone with an Adjusted Tee Number of 80 and above*

Silver Tees – Women

Handicaps will be adjusted for tees played.

*Any player may choose to play from a tee further back than the Adjusted Tee Number allows.

Example: a 12-handicap player who is 60 years old = 72. This player can compete from the Gold Tees by the Adjusted Tee Definition but may elect to play from Blue Tees if he or she prefers. This player would not be able to play the Silver Tees.

Prize pay-outs: Prize distribution (pro shop credit) will be awarded to approximately the top 30% of the field, – gross and net.

Prize distribution pay-out for most of the events: 70 % to Net and 30% to Gross scores.

Carts: Carts are optional except as noted in several events.

USGA Rules apply for all events.
