HELP US SET UP YOUR ONLINE SCORING ACCOUNT!
Again in 2023, the NOHIO.GOLF Series will feature LIVE SCORING with the Northern Ohio Golf Association! For that system, we need to create a Master Roster with basic information for each player.
This is a one-time ask: once we have you in our Golf Genius system, you need not submit the information ever again.
After submitting your entry fee payment, PLEASE EMAIL US the following information for each player (but only if you have not done so in the past):
PLAYER NAME
HOMETOWN
EMAIL ADDRESS (for event info like starting times, results)
PHONE NUMBER (for texts about weather warnings and cancellations)
DATE OF BIRTH (for variable tees by age)
GHIN # (if you have one)
Operations Details
Starting times will be posted the Thursday prior by 5p. Groupings will be randomly assigned, but requests for early or late starting times will be accepted up until the entry deadline.
Scores and payouts will posted to northernohio.golf soon after the event. Prize payments will be sent out within 24 hours after the completion of the event, distributed using the same method in which payment was received.
The NOHIO.GOLF Series events are run as competitive tournaments. So unless there are hours of heavy rains before and at our starting time, the event will be played. A forecasted chance of rain or a light rain at our starting times is not a reason to cancel in advance. If the forecast is for lightning or a near-certain amount of rain that will clearly cause standing water, then an early cancellation is a possibility. But if the course is playable and the weather manageable, the event will be played.
If the event is canceled due to weather, full refunds will be returned in the same manner of payment as provided within 24 hours. A player or team may cancel after entry fee payment is made up until the entry deadline, but a $10 administrative fee will be deducted from the refunded entry amount. After the entry deadline, no refunds will be provided if the event is conducted, regardless of reason.
