Schedule Changes
Due to some logistical challenges, the schedule has been adjusted as follows:

• 5/29 Format will be a 2 Man event (Best Ball + Par 5 Aggie)
• 6/3  Lasker Dinner Draft
• 6/5  Lasker Scramble
• 6/12 Event removed
  

About the Lasker

• All participants will sign up individually - there is a mandatory fee ($25) for the dinner draft. 
  
• Players will be grouped by handicap into A/B/C/D.  The draft will start with a random selection of the B players who will select the tee time. Next the C players will be randomly drawn and they can select the time or the player to join. Two more rounds for the D and A players.
• If anyone is not present at the draft, they will be placed in the order drawn into a time starting from the earliest to latest of the available slots for their group.
• Once the teams are complete, parimutuels can then be placed on the teams.
• Format on Sunday is each team will play 6 holes each from the Blue, White and Gold tees. 
  
• All players on the team will play the same tees for the hole. 
  
• Minimum of 3 drives per player and max of 5 for any player.
• Scramble format and triple bogey gross is the max.
• This is a fun event that will require strategy and some dumb luck to come out on top.

Mini Match Play Event Concept

• Inspired by the WGC Match Play, this event will mimic the format but with a limited field of 16 and competed over 2 days.  Day 1 will be 4 x foursomes randomly seeded playing a round robin within the foursome for 3 x 6 hole matches (individual).  Each match will be worth 1 point for the winner, 1/2 for ties.  Winner of each foursome will move on to Day 2 for a 9 hole semi final and then a 9 hole final & consolation match. $20 entry fee.  Target date is Aug 6 & 7 with the potential for another event in early October.
