Abridged Rules

1. The competition will be run as an individual knockout competition from March to Gold Cup.
2. You don't need to play in the same fourball as your opponent your score will be calculated from your Nomads scorecard.
3. The player with the highest differential for a cycle will progress. Where there is a cycle with two months your best differential score from the two games will count.
4. Should there be a count out the second score in the cycle will count. If the scores are then still tie there will be a count out commencing from stroke 1 through to 18 using the second card without taking handicaps into account i.e. if both players score the same Nomads points on the stroke one the stroke 2 will be taken into account and so on and so forth until there is a winner.
5. If a player is unable to make an Easterns monthly game in a cycle a make-up game score may be used as long as the game is played within that cycle and is the only score available. The differential scoring rule applies.
6. If a player is unable to make an Easterns monthly game or a make-up game in a cycle he will forfeit and his opponent will advance.
7. If both players are unable to make a monthly game in a cycle they will be disqualified unless there is an agreement between them to play the game outside of the Nomads monthly game in the correct cycle.
