down by the R&A, Wales Golf and the Glamorgan County Golf Union and Local Rules as approved, and sanctioned as a “Glamorgan County Golf Union Order of Merit event”. The County Executive shall sanction such events as from time-to-time it determines appropriate.
2. All competitors must be:
2.1. Of Amateur Status as defined by The Rules of Amateur Status.
2.2. In possession of a WHS handicap index under the current WHS Handicapping Scheme.
2.3. A member of a Club affiliated to the Glamorgan County Golf Union.
3. At each event points will be awarded according to the table below:
4.If scores are tied at the end of a Competition, the first and second place tie shall be decided as per the Conditions of Competition of the event. Points are awarded to the winner of the event as number 1 in the table. All other tied scores will be awarded the average of the points gained by the tied players.
Examples: Four players, A, B, C, and D tie on 146 in the Neath Bell. According to the COC applied by the Neath Club (Count-back). Player A is declared the winner by the Club and receives 60 OOM points. Players B, C and D then receive (50 + 40 + 30) / 3 = 40 points.
Three players P, Q and R have tied 36 Hole scores in the County Championship. The Championship COC require a play-off. In the play-off Player P is eliminated after the required holes and ultimately player Q wins over R in sudden-death. Player Q receives 90 points and players P and R receive (75 + 60) / 2 = 67.5 points.
5. Where, for whatever reason, an event is restricted to 18 holes half the points shall be allocated.
6. Only disputes in respect of eligibility and the award of Order of Merit points will be dealt with by the Championship Committee. Their decision in respect of such disputes shall be final.
