Locations
Upon registering for the Qualifying Tournament (QT) in the 3rd division “SELECT”, we invite you to indicate your preferred block for participation. This initial choice is pivotal, as it sets the stage for your tournament journey. Once assigned to a block, you will maintain your position within this group, advancing from the QT in Division 3 “SELECT” through to the main rounds of the Tournament in Division 2 “ELITE”.
We understand the strategic considerations in selecting a block. However, it’s important to note that once your participation journey begins, transitioning between blocks mid-tournament in Division 3 and 2 is not possible. This policy ensures fairness and consistency for all competitors.
The Tournament Is Divided Into Five Blocks That Revitalize The Local Golf Industry.
