tabulated and handicap indexes adjusted. they will all be available by five o'clock after
the days matches. Jerry Rosenzweig added that Jay has done a marvelous job and all

Presidents report:
1. Cart Path only rules: On page 24 paragraph 6 in the handbook the first
paragraph sets the description that 6 holes are the minimum requirement for the cart
path rule to be in effect.. Then it is up to the two Governors to play or declare a rain-out.
The second half of paragraph 6 sets how the teams will play if not rained-out. Eight (8)
players must be available.
Chuck has suggested that if feasible that the Governors or Captains pick a team that would
willing to play cart path only prior to the match.. Chuck feels that this would make it easier for
the pro shop to arrange score cards for these limited and probably new pairings.
2. Players competing from different tees: Since there have many instances where
matches necessitates competing from different tees it was reiterated that we should follow the
USGA rules governing this situation. There was a relatively brief discussion and all members
agreed. Below is the USGA Rule:
There was no old business, new business, nor good and welfare.
A motion for adjournment was made and seconded.
The next meeting will be at BOCA WOODS COUNTRY CLUB ON JUNE 9TH
The meeting was adjourned at 8:26 AM
Respectfully submitted,
Michael Lapkin
Secretary
