Format library
Golf league formats
Every format Gimme scores, with the rules, the handicap allowance leagues commonly use, a worked example computed by the same engine the app runs on, and the arguments that come up on league night. Pick a format, read the rules, and run it.
- Stroke playCount every stroke. Net takes handicap strokes off, and ties go to countback.
- Match playWin holes, not strokes. Strokes off the low, halved holes and concessions.
- Best ballEveryone plays their own ball and the team keeps the best. 85% and 90% allowances.
- Team match play with pointsTwo-person teams, a point a hole and a 2 point low net bonus: 20 points on a nine.
- ScrambleOne team ball and a team handicap: 35/15 for two, 25/20/15/10 for four.
- Alternate shotTwo golfers, one ball, taking turns. Team handicap is half the combined total.
- StablefordPoints per hole against par: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4. A bad hole costs nothing more than zero.
- QuotaGross points of 1, 2, 4 and 8 against a quota of 36 minus your course handicap.
- ChicagoThe Chicago points game, scored against a quota, with an 18-hole worked example.
- SkinsThe lowest score alone wins the hole. Carryover, net or gross, and exact payouts.
