Only Pirate Club members can make the Gaspar Golf Playoffs.
Players who wish to become Pirate Club members will pay a $75 annual fee.
You can qualify for the Playoffs by finishing in the top 16 (plus ties) in Gaspar Cup points rankings.
Gaspar Golf Pirate Club annual membership fees are due by the April 2024 Gaspar Invitational Tournament.
You must also play in at least half the events for the 2023-2024 Season, which is 6 if we have no rainouts.
These annual membership fees go to the Gaspar Golf Playoffs prize purse.
Playoffs will be a 2-day tournament played as stroke play, and using each player's Points Quota, and will be held in October 2024.
Points Quotas are frozen after the September event.
Points Quotas for players who won during the season will be adjusted to eliminate the 6-point penalty.
Qualifying players MUST play both Playoff rounds or will withdraw from the event.
Tournament will be a cumulative Points event. Your combined result against your Points Quota will be your tournament score.
Men play from 6000-6300 yards. Ladies play from 4800-5200 yards. This can vary slightly based on the course(s) we play.
All standard Gaspar Invitational rules will apply, although we may install some tournament rules before the event.
In the case of a tie at the end of play on Sunday, the players tied for 1st place will go back to the 1st tee, and play that hole. If there are players still tied, we will continue to the 2nd hole, and play until there is one player who has won the hole. We use the players' Quotas to determine a net score on the hole(s).
If there are 2 players tied for 1st place at the end of regulation, the loser in sudden death will finish in 2nd place. If there are 3 players tied at the top, the 2 losers in sudden death will tie for 2nd place, and split the prize money for 2nd and 3rd place. If there are 4 players tied at the top, the 3 losers in sudden death will tie for 2nd place, and split the prize money for 2nd, 3rd and 4th place.
