Tournaments & Outing Agreement

Tabs are available to all participants in the outing as long as a credit card is kept on file. The outing is responsible for all unpaid tabs.

Event Format and Play Details

• USGA Tournament Administration – Golf Genius software for pairing, hole assignment, team selections and scoring. Live scoring with sponsorship logo and advertising capabilities is available for an additional $300 fee.
• Tournament and outing formats are subject to course availability and management approvals.

Event Timeline
At least 2 weeks prior to the event contact will be made to determine, if any, additional carts required for the event. Once both parties agree to the quantity, FDCC will contact the golf cart company and order the specified number with delivery prior to the event date.

Seven (7) days prior to the event date, an initial list of players should be provided to the FDCC tournament administrator. Two (2) days prior to the event, a final player list will be considered the final listing.

• If the outing exceeds the final confirmed number, FDCC is not responsible for supplying extra carts. If you fail to meet the confirmed number, you will not be charged green fees but there will be a charge for each extra cart ($48.00/cart) that was unused.
• A tournament/outing review of details and specifics will also be conducted to insure readiness and coordination of event schedules.

The completed and signed Golf Outing Agreement form should be received at FDCC within 45 days of the event date. The event will be booked once the form and preliminary tournament fees are received. Selected alternative dates are not guaranteed but will be reviewed for scheduling potential.
