Canceled - portland gC tettelbach division & women's One Day Tournament presented by Chris Cote's Golf Shop
The CSGA One Day Tournament Series sponsored by Chris Cote’s Golf Shop offers professionally run competitive events in a season-long program. This popular series provides opportunities to play premier golf courses throughout the state, sign up with friends and select your preferred range of tee times. Competitions have gross and net categories and players earn pro shop merchandise prizes in their division. The series also has a point driven One Day Player of the Year contest, and an end of the season Championship for eligible qualifiers.
New for 2024 will be our registration process. It will no longer be a race to sign up at 7:00 a.m., and instead, you’ll have a full 11-day window in which to sign up for a tournament. We’ll be using the Golf Genius platform for registration and other functions such as scoring, Player of the Year points, prize distribution and player notifications. Many of you may already have a Player Profile in Golf Genius, but if you do not yet have one, it is essential that you take a few minutes to input your information. ALL PLAYERS MUST HAVE A GOLF GENIUS PROFILE! Even if someone else in your group typically registers you, you will still need to create a profile. And if you already have a profile it is important that you check to verify and update your information as needed.

ELIGIBILITY
Entry into a tournament in either division is $85 per player which includes a cart, and players must have an active USGA Handicap Index from a CSGA member club not exceeding 23.0 on the tournament registration open date. Play will be in two divisions which are named after CSGA honorees, Dick Tettelbach (54 and under) and Dick Siderowf (55+) respectively. Within the Siderowf division, there is a forward tee option at most courses that seniors may choose and participate in the net competition only.

REGISTRATION
All players when registering will be listed as “PENDING REGISTRATION” until the entry close date. Players will still be able to pick a tee time range and choose their playing partners, but no entry is guaranteed until you receive the “CONFIRMED PLAYER” email at which time your credit card will be charged. In 2024 you will actually have a little more advance notice of the final field, as we will release the final pairings 10 days before the date of the tournament.
For any tournaments that are oversubscribed based on our predetermined and allowable field size, we will conduct a modified lottery through Golf Genius that will finalize the field.
Players who do not gain entry in a particular tournament will be placed on a waitlist and will be alerted to any withdrawals. Those who still do not gain entry will be given priority consideration for entry into an upcoming tournament.
REFUND POLICY
In order for a player to receive a full refund, players must cancel five days prior to the event. After that, no refunds will be provided unless there is a family / medical emergency and must be requested in writing via email.
CANCELLATION POLICY
In the event that a tournament is canceled due to unplayable course conditions related to inclement weather, all registered players will receive a full refund. Communications will be sent to players via email / text as soon as a decision is made on the morning of the tournament, or possibly the day before depending on the severity of the weather forecast. Every effort will be made to reschedule that tournament in the remaining weeks of the season.
ONE DAY PLAYER OF THE YEAR
Players who finish in the top five including ties in the gross or net category of the Open (Tettelbach) or Senior (Siderowf) division at any One Day tournament are eligible to participate in the season-ending invitational, the Al Acker One Day Championship. After the last regular One Day tournament, all of the eligible qualifiers in each division will be ranked using their highest One Day Player of the Year points accrued in the 2024 season from either the net or gross category.
The first 50 players on the ranked list of eligible players for each division (Tettelbach and Siderowf) will be extended an invitation to play and register for the Al Acker One Day Championship. Additional qualifiers on the ranked list for each division (Tettelbach and Siderowf) will be alternates, invited to play and register if players decline the invitation and space becomes available. In 2024, this Championship will be contested at Wethersfield Country Club on Tuesday, October 21.
