2-Player "Green Ball"

Type: 
Team Competitions

Each team is given one (1) "special" ball designated as the "Green Ball". A major objective of this competition is to finish the 18 holes without losing the green ball. The Team designates Player #1 and Player #2.

  • Team player #1 must play the green ball on all odd-number holes, beginning with hole #1, and plays his/her own ball on all even-numbered holes.
  • Team player #2 must play the green ball on all even-number holes, beginning with hole #2, and his/her own ball on all odd-numbered holes.
  • Both the green ball and the regular ball are played until holed out.
  • The Low Net Score of the Team for each hole, be it the green ball or the regular ball, will be used for the team score. The team that posts the lowest net score without losing the green ball wins. The team with the second lowest net team score without losing the green ball is 2nd, etc. If all green balls are lost prior to completion of 18 holes, the team who completes the most holes prior to losing their green ball wins.

This is one of CTGA's most popular formats every year.
