Description – The Men’s Invitational is the premier event at Bellewood Country Club! The event is a Two Day Member Guest that includes everything great at the club. Members and their guest are treated to great food and golf throughout the two days.
Format – The format for the event is a Better Ball of Partners Round Robin Match Play Tournament. Teams for the event are made up of one Bellewood member and one guest, both players must have established USGA Handicaps and at least 10 scores from the last 12 months. The field is limited to 60 teams. Teams will play at 90% of their handicap off the low ball for each match. Each team will play five 9-hole matches against each team in their flight. Each match will be worth 9 points, 1 point for each hole (1/2 points awarded to teams that halve a hole). The tournament will be broken down into flights of six teams. Flights are determined by the total team handicap. The team with the highest point total at the end of all five matches wins their flight and moves on to the playoff. Their individual match score will break ties for the overall flight winner. If they also tied their match the tiebreak will go down to a chip off.

Playoff Format – The format for the Playoff is a 3-Hole aggregate alternate shot using 50% of the total teams handicap. The holes used for the playoff are 11, 12 and 18 with the any ties going back to 12 and 18 repeating until a winner is determined. All flights will tee off 11, the team selects who tees off then alternate for the rest of the hole. The low 6 teams will move on to Hole 12, the player who did not hit the tee shot on 11 will tee off. The low 3 teams will proceed to the 18th Hole.

Partner Changes and Cancellations – Members may change their partner until one week prior to the event. Any partner changes after that may result in the team being placed in the same flight as the previous partner. All cancellations must occur 2 weeks prior to the tournament. If a player cancels within 2 weeks of the event the team will incur a cancellation fee of 50% of the tournament.
