2.    By the Friday at 5PM preceding play the visiting club will contact the host club to determine how many players the visiting club may bring to the match. The visiting club will then send their roster to the host club no later than 5 PM on Saturday.

 

3.    Handicaps will be calculated on the basis of the best 4 scores out of 8 rather than 10 of 20.

 

4.    Data will not be used that is more than 2 years old.

 

5.    The beginning of the season handicap adjustment (if necessary where a person’s index is +/- 3) should be changed to equal their official club handicap.

 

6.     The league will return to TWO divisions.

 

New Business: Two motions were introduced and discussion will be tabled until the December meeting:

 

1.  We move that in the upcoming years that the South County League championship match which is to be played on a neutral course shall be determined by having two clubs of the South County League be chosen on a rotational basis. One club will be the primary and the second will be an alternate in case the primary is in the finals. The primary and the alternate should come from the same division either Division A or Division B.  –Mike Lapkin and Manny Newman

 

2.   I move that the Governor’s meeting shedule for the year shall be as follows: January, March, May, July, September, October, and December—Mike Lapkin and seconded by Jay Wiston.

 

Good and Welfare: Jay Levine was recognized for his extraordinary work this past year. Sadly, Jerry Drachman who was a past president from 2003-2004 has recently died.

 

A motion for adjournment was made and seconded.

 

The next meeting will be at Delaire Country Club on December 8th
