Yellow Ball Competition

If you have not played the yellow ball competition before this is how it works.

Every group will get a yellow ball and an extra team card from the starter.
Before starting your round you need to decide your playing order.
Each player will take it in turn to play a full hole with the yellow ball and record their stableford points on the team card.
You continue in this order with the yellow ball until the ball is lost or you complete the round. Whatever comes first!!!

There will still be a standard stableford competition for everyone in addition to the Yellow Ball competition.

It is up to the individual teams to decide if they want a forfeit for losing the ball!!!
