3PRESIDENT’S LETTER
Dear Members,
It is an honor to serve as your
President for the 94th anniversary
of the Cleveland Women’s Golf
Association. It is such a wonderful
organization, and I am proud to be
a part of it.
After a number of years of decline,
our membership appears to have stabilized now, and last year
we saw slight growth, which is really great news. Participation
levels also increased, and we hope that even more players will
enter tournaments this year. I encourage everyone to play in
our events. Most of the events are paired events, so ask a friend
and come out to play. Players of all skill levels are welcome.
We are constantly working to improve your enjoyment of the
interclub experience.
I look forward to working with the Board to make 2017 a great
summer of friendship and golf.
Thank you to all the clubs for hosting our tournaments. All of
our Golf Professionals and staff work very hard to make each
event run smoothly; we are very appreciative of their efforts.
Thirteen years ago I played in my first CWGA event. I was
new to Ohio and knew no one from any other clubs. At that
time, a player at my club asked me to play with her in a CWGA
tournament. She is now one of my best friends along with so
many others I have met playing CWGA events.
Come join in!
Sincerely,
Barbara Cunliffe

13CWGA CONDITIONS OF COMPETITION
RULES OF GOLF — USGA RULES OF GOLF GOVERN PLAY
PLAYER’S RESPONSIBILITIES – The player and her caddie are responsible for
knowing the conditions under which the competition is to be played. (Rule 6-1)
START TIME – The player shall start play at the time set by the committee. Penalty for
Breach: Disqualification. (Rule 6-3) Note: The Committee may provide in the Conditions
of Competition (Rule 33-1) that, if the player arrives at her starting hole, within five
minutes after the starting time, in the absence of circumstances which warrant waiving the
penalty of disqualification as provided in Rule 33-7, the penalty for failure to start on time
is loss of the first hole in match play or two strokes at the first hole in stroke play instead
of disqualification. (Rule 6-3) (Exception – Team Play: A player arriving late will lose
as many holes as her group has played at that time. Any player having to withdraw during
the course of play will receive credit for the holes played and will default the balance.)
PACE OF PLAY – CWGA will have Rangers monitor the speed of play.
DISCONTINUANCE OF PLAY; RESUMPTION OF PLAY -- The Head Professional
and Course Superintendent will determine if course and weather conditions prohibit the
start or continuation of play. If the contiguous delay is longer than (2) hours, the match
will be postponed for that day or canceled. If 18 holes have not been completed by every
player, but each player has completed 9 holes or more, then the tournament shall become
a 9-hole tournament. If each player has completed less than 9 holes, the match will be
rescheduled, delayed up to two hours, or canceled. (Rule 6-8): “The player must not
discontinue play unless (i) the Committee has suspended play; (ii) she believes there is
danger from lightning; (iii) she is seeking a decision from the Committee on a doubtful or
disputed point (see Rules 2-5 and 34-3); or (iv) there is some other good reason such as
sudden illness. Bad weather is not of itself a good reason for discontinuing play. If the
player discontinues play without specific permission from the Committee, she must report
to the Committee as soon as practicable. If she does so and the Committee considers the
reason satisfactory, there is no penalty. Otherwise, the player is disqualified.” If play is
suspended and the players are in the process of playing a hole, they shall mark their balls,
discontinue play immediately, and shall not resume play until ordered to do so. Penalty
is disqualification. In a two-person team competition, if one twosome of the foursome
“quits”, the remaining twosome must call the Pro Shop or Committee chair to ask that a
“marker” be sent to verify their play. If no marker is available, the caddie may continue on
as the marker, or the twosome may join the group in front or behind their twosome. If none
of these solutions occurs, then the twosome is disqualified.
LOCAL RULES – Individual tournament hosts may post local rules for abnormal
conditions, provided they are consistent with the Rules of Golf. (Rule 33-8)
TIES – When necessary to break ties in stroke play competition, the USGA-recommended
procedure will be followed: the winner will be determined on the basis of the best score for
the last nine holes. If the players who are tied have the same score for the last nine holes,
the winner will be determined on the basis of the score on the last six holes, the last three
holes, and finally the eighteenth hole. If such a method is used in a handicap stroke play
competition, one-half, one-third, one-sixth, etc. of the handicaps should be deducted. If a
tie remains, the lowest handicap golfer will be the winner. (Decision 33-6/2)
TIES IN THE CHAMPIONSHIP QUALIFYING ROUND – Ties for the final spot
in the Championship Flight will be decided by a physical playoff beginning on hole #1
immediately following play or when the Committee determines all possible players have
14completed their rounds. For the purposes of determining places in the draw, ties in the
qualifying rounds, other than those for the last qualifying place, shall be decided by the
order in which the scores are returned, with the first score to be returned receiving the
lowest available number, etc. If it is impossible to determine the order in which scores are
returned, ties shall be determined by a blind draw.
TIES IN CHAMPIONSHIP MATCHES – In the event of a tie in the CWGA
Championship matches, a sudden death playoff will decide the winner. (Rule 33-6)
TIES IN TROPHY EVENTS –The Mary K. Browne is an individual Handicap Stroke
Play Competition. In the event of a tie for the Field Low Net Winner, there will be a
three-hole aggregate playoff with handicaps. A percentage of the 18-holes played in the
three-hole playoff should be applied to the players’ handicaps to determine their playoff
handicaps. Handicap stroke fractions of one-half stroke should count as a full stroke; any
lesser fractions should be disregarded. If the playoff is tied after three holes, a sudden
death playoff with strokes as they fall on the scorecard shall ensue on the following holes
until a winner is determined. If a playoff is not feasible, a matching scorecard method
using strokes as they fall on the scorecard will be used beginning with the last 18 holes, the
last nine holes (10-18), the last six holes (13-18), the last three holes (16-18) and finally
the 18th hole. If there is still not a winner, a tie will be declared between players. Ties for
Low Gross Field, Second Low Net Field, and Low Net, Second Low Net, and Low Gross
in each Flight will be determined by matching scorecards as stated above.
GENERAL NUMERICAL DRAW – The General Numerical Draw will be used if
a qualifying round determines matches in Championship. Matches are determined as
follows:
16 QUALIFIERS 8 QUALIFIERS
#1 vs. #16 — #2 vs. #15 #1 vs. #8 — #2 vs. #7
#4 vs. #13 — #3 vs. #14
#8 vs. #9 — #7 vs. #10 #4 vs. #5 — #3 vs. #6
#5 vs. #12 — #6 vs. #11
CADDIES – A player in a CWGA event may not employ her own caddie under penalty of
disqualification. (Rule 33-1) Exceptions may be made for Championship or other CWGA
tournaments. If Player A obtains a cart and Player B hires a caddie, the caddie belongs
to Player B. Player A would be in violation of Rule 8-1 by asking the caddie to read a
putt. The player can ask for distance or general knowledge of the course. Under Rule
8-1, during a stipulated round, a player must not ask for advice from anyone other than his
partner or either of their caddies—see Definition of Advice and Definition of Caddie. So, if
Players A and B are fellow-competitors (i.e. not partners), Player B is in breach of Rule 8-1
if he asks Player A’s caddie for advice, such as reading a putt. In stroke play, the penalty
for a breach of Rule 8-1 is two strokes.
CARRYING OF BAGS – Not permitted
CELL PHONES – Cell phones may only be used in an emergency or to call the Pro Shop.
DISTANCE MEASURING DEVICES – The use of devices to measure distance only is
permitted for all CWGA Tournaments, Team Play, and Championship. The use of devices
that gauge or measure other conditions, (e.g., wind or gradient) is not permitted even if
those functions are disabled. Penalty for Breach is Disqualification. (Rule 14-3. Decision
14-3/0.5)
DRESS CODE – Short shorts and tank tops are not proper attire for CWGA events
regardless of individual club policies. Please see pages 84-87 for the Dress Codes of the
individual clubs.

172017 HANDICAP INFORMATION
All handicaps used in Cleveland Women’s Golf Association
competition will be USGA Handicaps computed according to
the USGA Slope System of Handicapping.
1. You have only one handicap: USGA HANDICAP INDEX. It
is expressed as a decimal, but you never play with it. This is
an index number you will use on a chart to find out how many
strokes you play with on any given course and set of tees.
2. When you play at your home course from the designated
tees, the above conversion has already been done for you;
handicap reports will provide your “home course handicap”
to save you the step of looking it up on a chart.
3. When you play other tees at your home course or away from
this course, you must refer to the Course Handicap Table
posted at that course and convert your USGA HANDICAP
INDEX to the handicap you will use for that course, or use
the GHIN app.
4. For rounds played at home, score posting for handicapping
purposes is unchanged. When posting away scores, you
must record not only the USGA Course Rating but also the
Slope Rating. All home and away scores must be posted.
5. Cards should be dated and signed.
6. Players should only post a “T” score for the following
tournaments: Championship Qualifier / CWGA Open /
Mary K. Browne / Tri-League.
7. USGA Rules should be in effect unless the Club’s Greens or
Golf Committee designates “Preferred Lies” or “Winter Golf.”
8. Our playing season is April 1 through October 31.
9. Consult your handicap chairman for details.
10. To check a handicap, go to www.ghin.com and click on
“look up.”

262016 CWGA Team Report
Congratulations, again! to Team Champions for the second year in a row,
Westwood Country Club! At the Final Team Play, just a few points made a big
difference in the final standings. Runners-up, again! for the second year in a
row (but by a closer margin!) was Kirtland Country Club. It was a pleasure to
announce, as Team Manager, that Shaker was the Most Improved Team this
year, improving four places in the 14-team standings!
We had no rainouts, which was “par” for the course this season! Host
Clubs Mayfield Sand Ridge, Chagrin Valley, Avon Oaks, Lake Forest, and
Shaker were in beautiful condition and played “tough” due to the hot and dry
conditions most of the summer. Each of the Golf Professionals did a great job
planning and facilitating each Team Play. Their efforts are greatly appreciated.
Special thanks go to the Assistant Team Managers Gail Fussner and Rita
Johnston who were always ready to lend a hand, both with scoring and ranging.
Each Club provided additional support in the locker rooms, valet service, and
banquet/lunch service. CWGA Board Members, especially Celine Krashin,
were a great help too. These tournaments couldn’t happen without a great many
ladies assisting, including our Past Presidents. We all look forward to Team
Play competition in 2017.

Gail Fussner, Assistant Team Manager

29TEAM PLAY RULES
MISSION STATEMENT: The purpose of Team is to provide a competitive
environment for each club’s best players.
Five players will comprise a team; each of the Teams competing will meet
each other once. There will be five rounds of match play competition. Eighteen
points will be available in each two-person contest (1 point for winning a hole,
½ point for tying a hole, and 0 points for losing a hole.) Team Play position
for the current year is determined by the previous year’s final standings. Ties
between teams will also be determined by the previous year’s position.
The winner each season will be the Team with the highest number of points after
all rounds have been played. The runner-up will be the Team with the second
highest total points. In case of a tie for the first and second places, five sudden
death matches will be played that day. Play will be in twosomes by position.
(#1 player Team A vs. #1 player Team B, #2 vs. #2 etc. through position #5)
hole by hole to sudden death. The club pro will designate the starting hole. Play
will continue until there is a winner in each of the five twosomes, and the tie
is broken. Both the winner and runner-up will receive the designated traveling
trophies and a permanent plaque commemorating the standing.
There will be only one division. In addition to the overall winner and runner-up,
the third, fourth, and fifth place Teams will be recognized. Ties for those places
will not be broken. A permanent plaque will be awarded for third, fourth, and
fifth places. The Most Improved Team, determined by its final standing with
regard to the previous year’s standing, will also receive recognition.
A forfeit, whether it is one Team player or more, shall result in the opponents
receiving ⅔ of the available points. The remaining ⅓ points will fall into the
unclaimed category.
A player arriving late will lose as many holes as her group has played at that
time. Any player having to withdraw during the course of play will receive
credit for the holes played and will default the balance.
If an odd number of teams exists for the season, in each of the five contests a
“bye” will be utilized.
USGA RULES GOVERNING MATCH PLAY SHALL APPLY TO ALL
MATCHES IN TEAM PLAY WITH TWO EXCEPTIONS:
1. Upon reaching the green, all balls shall be marked, except the ball farthest
from the cup. There will be no ball interfering with, or being of assistance to,
any other ball. All putts must be holed out except when all other players in the
match agree to concede the putt.
30TEAM PLAY RULES
(Continued)
2. A non-playing Team Captain will not be permitted on the course to give
advice during the course of the matches.
All players MUST report to the club where play is scheduled, regardless
of weather or presumed playing conditions. The Team Captain will report
immediately to the Team Manager and all players will remain until a decision
has been made regarding delay or postponement. The Head Professional and
Course Superintendent will determine if course and weather conditions prohibit
the start or continuation of play. If the contiguous delay is longer than 2 hours,
the match will be postponed for that day. If 18 holes have not been completed
by each player, every effort will be made to reschedule the match on the same
course. However, if a reschedule is not accomplished during the same season,
due to course or calendar availability, and each player has completed 9 holes
or more, then points will be awarded for the nine-hole match. If each player
has completed less than 9 holes, then no points will be awarded for that match.
All players must check in by 7:45 AM. Players must assemble by their bags at
8:15 AM for final instructions and dispatch to holes. All matches will begin at
8:30 AM (unless a time change is indicated) in a shotgun format.
In order to allow for fair competition within a foursome, caddies and carts will
be assigned based upon the established guidelines. Details of these guidelines
will be given to each Team Captain.
Team Captains are requested to submit their lineups and club membership
numbers to the Team Manager at least three days prior to the scheduled play.
Changes may be made prior to the day of play by calling the Team Manager.
Any last minute changes occurring the morning of Team Play should be reported
at the check-in table prior to 7:45 AM. If a player cannot be replaced before
that time, a forfeit shall occur in the position she was to play; other players do
not move up. There will be no changes in the lineup after 7:45 AM!
Players on each team are to be seeded according to handicap index. If Team
members have the same index number, the differential must be used to
determine position. Handicaps will be checked and approved before starting
matches. Speed of play is of prime concern. If a match fails to keep pace on
the course and loses in distance more than one clear hole ahead, it must allow
subsequent matches to play through. Slow players will be penalized.
Each Team player incurs a mandatory charge for lunch at each Team Play,
unless the Team’s club has prepaid for their lunches.
