Roach Crystal
Aggregate pairs with a pre-draw for partners, based on a low/high handicap split. The lower handicap plays medal, the higher plays stableford. The stableford points are subtracted from the medal score with the lowest score winning.
Players not eligible to win the trophy will be paired together. Partners play together, therefore scores are not acceptable for handicap purposes.
Players can enter the morning draw, the afternoon draw, or specify that they are able to play in either. The suggested method of doing the draw is:
- Identify the Handicap Index mid-point to determine who plays medal (below the mid-point) and stableford (above the mid-point).
- Decide how many pairs will play in the morning and afternoon draws.
- Put all the (either draw) medal players ‘in the bag’ and draw out sufficient numbers to go into the pot of (morning) medal players, such that the total number is as decided in step 2. Repeat with the (either draw) stableford players. The players not drawn out go into the pots for the afternoon draw.
- Make the morning and afternoon draws, putting the medal players in each pairing first on the timesheet.
Scratch Cups
The lowest gross scores from each division win the trophies. There are also prizes for the lowest net scores in each division (subject to sufficient entrants). A player that wins a scratch prize will not also win a net prize.

A player’s handicap on the day of the Final decides the Division in which they compete. Stableford finalists are not allocated separate tee times.
There is one Stableford Final prize per division, in additional to any prizes won in the Millennium Trophy.
