MEN’S TOURNAMENT GOLF ASSOCIATION INFORMATION

In an effort to continue to increase tournament participation, offer a great value, and give
better service, the Rolling Hills Tournament Committee would like to once again offer
the membership a Men’s Tournament Golf Association (MTGA).

Participants will accumulate points based on where they finished in the MTGA
tournaments with 110 points being awarded for first place, 90 points for second, 75 points
for third, 62 points for fourth, 50 for fifth, 39 for sixth, 29 for seventh 20 for eighth, 12
for ninth and 8 points for participation. Double points will be awarded for the Club
Championships. 1-1/2 points for the Individual Summer Long Tournament and Triumph
Cup. Pro shop credit will be awarded to the top five finishers; $500, $400, $300, $200
and $100 respectively. Moreover, the Player of the Year will have his name inscribed
and placed onto a plaque in the club’s trophy case. The top 11 point leaders will be
eligible for the 3rd annual Clear Creek/Poudre River Classic Inter Club match
against Ptarmigan Country Club in October.

In 2019 we will offer a 12 event package, which includes a $25 contribution to
Eisenhower-Evans Scholarship Program, and the closing awards lunch. Special events
like the Two-Man Spring League, the Summer Long Match Play, Men’s Guest
Days, Senior Club Championship, 8,000 Yard Tournament, and Pro-Member are
separate events and are NOT a part of the MTGA. If a member were to play and
participate in all 12 events it would cost them over $1500 (including carts). Our price is
all inclusive of prizes, pro shop credit, and trophies for selected events, including the
closing night dinner at a price of ONLY $750 ($650 for Carts Unlimited Members), a
SAVINGS OF OVER 50%!

If you play in 3 of the 4 two-day events and one other event you will cover your
annual fee.

The season will culminate with an awards lunch on Friday, September 20, 2019.

Members of the MTGA will also receive FREE CARTS, a $385 value, for the
tournaments listed. You do not have to be a member of the MTGA in order to participate
in any of the events below; however, the full entry fee will apply when playing events a
la carte.
