Seniors LAH LAH stableford competition January 14th 2016

This was a new competition format introduced by Steve Monk. Basically the rules are LOWEST SCORE (L), FOLLOWED by AGGREGATE SCORES (A) and finally HIGHEST (H) score, Played today as a pairs competition. There were only 13 holes open today with holes 2, 6, 7, 16 and 17 closed. As it was a new format there was some confusion to say the least in recording the correct scores but this was overcome and finalised by Steve in the club house.
Via Fred the rules below
