A motion was made: The 3 players who do show up for play in a 4 Person Scramble tournament will be able to play with a team handicap calculated using the following handicaps: The lowest handicap of the 3 players in the group will be counted twice, then added to the other 2 players handicaps providing 4 handicaps to be multiplied by 20%. There will be a minimum of 5 drives used by each player. Motion passed 6-0 with 1 abstention.
