Play
Players 60+ of age will play from white tees. Rest of league plays from Blue Each teams A and B player will tee off each hole. Each team will decide between their drive which was the best and move their ball to the best drive. Each player will then play their own ball from that point in for a total score on the hole. Give-me putts are allowed as decided between the two teams playing. This helps to keep play moving. Rule of thumb is any putt shorter than the length of the putter to the bottom of the putter grip.
