The Scoring
Two competitions
The Cup is decided by the match play. Enter each player's hole scores below and the site runs the matches off handicap and stroke index. Everyone also has a singles Stableford running for the individual prize.
Scoring here is shared and live, so everyone sees the same thing and you don't need anything else. Golf GameBook is linked above too, if anyone prefers it on the course.
