NDGA ORDER OF MERIT – New Competition for 2016

REVISED – Myall Autumn Classic – Saturday Event Added.    Method of allocating points clarified.

REVISED – Waratah Cup points reduced to 100

Following feedback from a number of the golfers in the District over the past year and discussions within the NDGA Executive it has been decided to introduce
an NDGA Order of Merit Competition during 2016. The competition will be based solely on points awarded for performances at various Club Open Major
Events and NDGA events between February and November 2016.

It is the intention that this competition will replace the Stroke Average based District Vardon Event.

The main objectives of this competition are: 1) to promote Golf in the District, particularly participation of elite golfers in Club Open Major Events;
2) to recognize outstanding performances within the District in these events; 3) to use the results to assist with selection for NDGA representative
teams.

The competition will commence with the first scheduled Club Open event in 2016, which is the Karuah Cup on February 6 and will conclude at the Beresfield
Bowl, on November 19.

A trophy for the winner and significant voucher prizes will be awarded to the first three positions at the conclusion of the competition.
