CHARLIE CHAPLIN CUP - PLAYER OF THE YEAR


 

The Charlie Chaplin Cup is a season-long player of the year race designed to find the player of the year. Throughout the year, you will receive points based on both your NET and GROSS finish in your flight. This race culminates in a FedEx Cup style PLAYOFF SYSTEM played in the fall.

The top 16 at the end of the year go into a Player of the Year Tournament (conducted concurrent with the Fall Kickoff tournament).


POY RACE SPECIFICS: 
 

  • Your combined GROSS and NET finish in each tourney will make up the year-long standings of the Charlie Chaplin Cup.
  • For team events, players on the same team are awarded the same points based on the team standings. (Ex. If Alice and Bob are on a team that places 3rd overall, then both will receive 3rd place points)
  • The Jack & Jill, Senior Club Championship and Ladies Club Championship award no POY points
