Seacoast Christian GC, January 6, 2017
News and Results – Event 1 – Encinitas Ranch, GC
Welcome to our 1st Event of our 2017 Seacoast Cup Golf Tour. Our players all gathered up at Encinitas GC to showcase their 2017 swings. It was a true blessing as Friday’s weather was kind when 2 full days of rain (Wed/Thurs) yielded to our partly cloudy and sunshine skies. The tournament committee instituted the “lift-clean-place” rule to accommodate the soggy conditions, but the players who played all were treated with a fine day of golf. An apology was offered up by the course for not placing out “pin competition” markers on the early holes of the front nine. Fortunately they placed them out on the back nine and on hole #9. Below are the results. Congratulations to our winners:
Low Gross Winners
Flight A – Chris Fenimore (76)
Flight B – Craig Johnson (89)
Flight C – Tom Abrell (87)
Overall Low Net Winners – Tom Abrell (68) / Charlie Kellogg (68)
Next Event: Friday, February 3 Place: Boulder Oaks Golf Club, Escondido, CA 7:30a shotgun start
Quest for the 2017 Seacoast Cup– This year will be filled with full of fun times on the golf course. Monthly Friday events will be available for golf stroke play competition. All players who have an office SCGA index will be place in respective flights to compete with players of their own golf playing ability / potential. Players will earn points according to their placing in each event. Two Major events will be available for a 27 hole competition (April / July) where there will be an increased value in earned points. September begins the “Playoff Season” where twenty players will earn their way to this year’s match play event. Points are earned by finishing well in both individual low gross and low net score postings. Also points may earned in different team and individual events ranging from match play, 4 man team best ball, and 2 man best ball events. Net Skins are also another category that allows players to add points to their monthly points.
Remember only those players who have an Official SCGA or USGA golf index qualify for low net play and compete in Seacoast Christian Golf Club Points System. Players who participate in our events who do not have an official golf index / handicap, will be assigned a “Flight” depending on their level of play. These players also may be assigned a course handicap and may participate and qualify for team net play points. Players who desire to qualify for Seacoast Christian GC Playoffs, must be a member of our SCGA affiliate club. For information on how to become a member and to obtain an official golf index contact Curtis Chan and visit : Membership and SCGA.

Leader board – So we are off to a new year. One of our newest members, but not a stranger to our club is Chris Fenimore, who has come out strong to prove he is worthy of our Seacoast Cup trophy by posting low scores and tops our leader board.. There are a pack of players who are gearing up to hunt down our leader and prove that their golf games are just as strong. As our season progresses we will be having head to head competitions that will really stir up the leader board…so if you plan to contend, get to the range, shore up your short game, and zero in your putting stroke to bring out your “A” game.
