National Tournament Director's Report

April 4, 2014

In an effort to reduce our expenses, the National Board has instructed Minimax to only provide the handicap report viaemail until further notice. Minimax will continue to process handicaps twice monthly, in accordance with USGAguidelines on the 1st and 15th of each month. The handicap report will be posted on the Minimax website atwww.minimaxgolf.com.

On March 21, 2012, National PAGA President, Jesse Pena, ordered all chapters to submit application to be licensed bythe USGA. Chapters were further directed to provide a copy of the application to the National Secretary.

Saginaw, Michigan is currently the only PAGA Chapter not in compliance with this directive. The Saginaw Chapter iscurrentfy suspended from submitting scores to Minimax for handicap purposes, and their members will not be eligible tocompete in National events.

The USGA has initiated an audit program for golf clubs to ensure the integrity of the USGA Handicap System is beingmaintained. The USGA randomly selects licensed golf clubs to complete the audit program and to provide evidence thatthey are using the USGA's formulas and service marks correctly in connection with the USGA Handicap System. A few ofthe points the USGA focuses on include:

• Handicaps must be posted following the USGA revision schedule (1st & as" of. each month)

• All acceptable scores must be posted

• All scores must be adjusted using equitable stroke control

Numerous concerns have been brought to my attention over the understanding of Handicap Index, Course Handicap,and Equitable Stroke Control. Explanations follow:

A "Handicap Index" is the USGA's service mark used to indicate a measurement of a player's potential ability on a courseof standard playing difficulty. It is expressed as a number taken to one decimal place and is used for conversion to aCourse Handicap.

Once a player has a handicap index, this can be converted to a "Course Handicap" using the USGA's Course HandicapCalculator: http://www.usga.org/playing/handicaps/calculator/course handicap calculator.aso. The calculator takesinto consideration the slope rating ofthe tee box being played on a given course to convert the handicap index to acourse handicap. This "Course Handicap" is a whole number (no decimal) and is what players use during an outing fornet scoring and determination of maximum score per hole for Equitable Stroke Control (ESe).

Over the years, many refinements have been made to the USGA Handicap System including the procedure of adjustingindividual hole scores for handicap purposes. Equitable Stroke Control (ESe) sets a maximum number that a player canpost on any hole depending on the player's Course Handicap.

Chris ReynoldsNPAGA Tournament Director

Competing From Different USGA Course Ratings

Question: How do players adjust their Course Handicap when competing from different tees, which have a different

Course Rating and Slope Rating?

One of the commonly misunderstood topics of the USGA Handicap System" is the additional adjustment that needs to

be applied for a competition in which players are competing from different tees/USGA Course Ratings. A common

misconception held by many golfers is that a Course Handicap?' represents the number of strokes a player needs to

shoot par. This is not the case. A Course Handicap represents the (rounded) number of strokes a player needs to shoot a

score equal to the USGA Course Rating of the tees being played. In most cases, par will remain the same for each gender

from one tee to the next as it is based on the effective playing length of each hole. However, look at any scorecard and

you will note that the USGA Course Rating and Slope Rating" will vary from one set of tees to the next.

Since different tees have different Ratings, as well as different ratings for both men and women, for any competition in

which players are competing against one another from different sets of tees, or men and women competing from the

same set of tees, an additional adjustment needs to be applied in order to put all players on an equal playing field. To

compensate for the difference in USGA Course Rating from one set of tees to the next, the rounded difference in USGA

Course Rating between the two sets of tees is added to the Course Handicap of the player(s) competing from the higher

rated set of tees.

If a majority of the players are competing from the higher-rated set of tees, it is acceptable for the rounded difference in

USGA Course Rating to be subtracted from the players competing from the lower-rated set of tees. (See Decision 3-5/1.)

The USGA Handicap Department has received many inquiries in regard to this topic as players often feel as if they are

being penalized for playing a shorter set of tees. However, this adjustment is necessary so players can compete on an

equitable basis. Since a Course Handicap gives a player the whole number of strokes needed to shoot the USGA Course

Rating of the tees being played, a player competing from a set of tees with a USGA Course Rating of 70.3 is expected to

shoot a net score that is two strokes fewer than his opponent who is competing from a set of tees with a USGA Course

Rating of 72.7.

The opponent competing from the higher-rated set of tees needs two additional strokes to compete on equal footing

(72.7 - 70.3 = 2.4, 2 rounded). Without this adjustment, the player competing from the lower-rated set of tees is at a

distinct advantage.

For more information on this topic, please see the USGA's Position Paper on Competing From Different Tees, which is

available online at:

http://www.usqa.orq/hondicappinq/orticles resources/USGA-s-Position-Paper-on-Competing-From-Ditferent- Tees/

National Pan American Junior Championship Tourney

Ideas on better participation of Juniors and Organization of Event

Junior ProgramA. How to increase participation at annual tourney

1. More exposure of Jr's.Via Website (Jr.s in The Spotlight: Create a Who's Who Among Jr's)Website link that will allow Jr's to be recognized during the year. We must build our Jr.sesteem and let them know that hard work does payoff. This will encourage moreparticipation.

Allow 1r's to submit accomplisImtepts in their respective cities. Making the golf team,placing in tourneys, or simply any accomplishments that they deem as news worthy canbe submitted and approved by the National Board or JI. Committee.

I

Create a video at each National Tourney and allow Jr's and their families to view via thewebsite (this will encourage other Jr's to play more often and ask for parents to registerthem in the national tourney.

Recognize parents, who have to incur the extra expense to bring Jr's as they have moreexpenses for lodging and food. Thanking parents publicly and by recognizing theirchildren as this will encourage parents to make the sacrifice and bring them to compete.

Jr. Hall of Fame: Established a Who's Who on the website for Jr's that have becomepositive role models and participated in the PAGA JR Program. Quotes from Jr's whoare now adults stating what being a Jr in the PAGA teach them as adults. Nationalboard will make all final decisions.

\

2. Rules Clearly Outlined I

Have all rules for each division placed on the web site and any concerns can be addressedat the meeting prior to opening day at the National Tournament.

3. Check off list: Will be placed on the web site for host city on necessary items to have asuccessful tournament. This will ensure that the JI. Tournament is consistent in everycity and if recommendations arise, then amendments to the by laws can be motioned, ifneeded.

4. Trophies: Have consistent trophies each year and have same Championship Trophy forChampionship Division.

B. Increase Participation in Local Clubs1. Create events in local cities involving parents and juniors. Do JI. and parent (grand

parent) competition and recognize locally at their fund raising events and post onNational website. This will allow other clubs to get ideas and create their own events.

National Junior Championship Tourney

Host City will provide official score cards for both days.Parents of Participants may not be official scorers for their child's group unlesshost city does not provide scorers.Make poster for local youth to carry with official scorer to indicate score per holeto give the sensation of being in real pro tourney. Place + 1, +2 as scoreprogresses.Some scores were challenged at the end of round. Official scorer is needed.Trophies - PAGA to select trophy fur championship division that is selected byPAGA and given every year. (This way Jr. is guaranteed a Great Keepsake) Wemust recognize our youth as much as possible.Rules for Tourney: All rules for each age group should be posted on the nationalweb site and emailedtoeachparentbeforetourney.This will give parents achance to write down questions that could be answered at the meeting prior toopening day.9 stroke limit for all except championship division. Reason is health (Julyweather can be very hot) and time (Some rounds took a long time). We had scoresof 153, 148, 140, 121, etc ... and some of these scores were with the older golfers.Food: All golfer to eat first and parents last whether they payor not. ,Pictures: Host city to secure photographer for golfers to purchase pictures andalso host city photographer to' take pictures for the web site and a video to recordtourney. (We must showcase our youth and this will enable more hits on web site.)

I -

Coaching of Players: Rules must be outlined exactly as to how much coachingcan take place and identified by each age division. Perhaps no coaching indivisions 16-18 and 14-15.Riding in carts permissible in all age groups except divisions 14-15 and 16-18.Video Archive: Place a video of Jr. Tourney so parents and family can visit website and se their children.Jr. Hall of Fame: Established a Who's Who on the website for Jr's that havebecome positive role models and participated in the PAGA JR Program. Nationalboard will make all final decisions.Have quote from inductee on how PAGA helped mold their lives.- Host City Check Off List: This list will be compiled by JR Program chair and

his volunteers to enable each host city to have a list so Jr. Tourney will besuccessful.Award Venue: Have capability to show a DVD taken of Jr. golfers during the

'.

National Junior Championship Tourneytourney.

Jr.s in The Spotlight: Website link that will allow Jr.s to be recognized duringthe year. We must build our Jr.s esteem and let them know that hard work doespayoff. This will encourage more participation.Each division shall have their rules available via the web site. Must indicatedemeanor of parents. Parents must not make their children cry during tourney!! !!Especially when other children and other parents are present.Max. Score must be clarified: Example 6-8 Division: Max Score 9 (5 shots toget on green) and (4 shots on green) .but if child gets on the green on 2, then maxscore should be 6. I:

Pete,

Below is a detailed list of what Miguel Bautista and I will do to help the El Paso Chapterin conducting the National PAGA Tournament.

-TPP Online Tournament Software: Originally we were going to use the IWanamaker softwareprogram, however all clubs are not proficient in running this program. We are now goingto use the Tournament Pairing Program from the USGA that all clubs have on their ClubHandicap computer.Miguel will be the central workstation for all event needs in registration and set-up.From there all courses will be emailed their pairings, scorecards and cart tags for theevent. Course personnel will print and score the event from their computer and allresults will be live for tournament participants to view after each round.

-Scoresheets: All scores will be individually posted at the hotel headquarters for alltournament participants to view. Respective chapter logos will be displayed next to the 4& 7 Man Teams. On Thursday night all score sheets will be re-located to the site of theParade of Colors.

-Skins: All tournament participants will be able to view the results of their score aswell as skins won on their computer or smartphone within minutes after their completedround.

Let me know if you need anything else.

Thanks,

Mark Anthony Gonzalez, PGAHead Golf ProfessionalPainted Dunes Desert Golf Course915.821.2122 Office915.821-2165 Fax915.920.7428 Cell
