The Juniper Cup is a season-long competition for members of the Juniper Hill Ladies Golf Club (JHLGC).  The purpose of this event is to promote women’s golf at Juniper Hill and to foster a closer bond among the members through a team competition regardless of skill level.

The Juniper Cup is strictly optional for all members of JHLGC.  There is no fee to join a team.  Team members will be awarded points based on participation and placing in weekly league play and events designated as Juniper Cup events. 

How to Sign Up?

• Members will indicate on their membership form if they wish to sign up for a team or to volunteer to be a team captain. 
  • Team Captains are to encourage and actively interact with their teammates during the season. 
  • Members are encouraged to participate since teams are dependent on points. 
• Members that participate in both the Wednesday Ladies League and the Thursday Late Swingers League must choose only one primary league to count for Juniper Cup purposes.

Deadline

The deadline to be included for the Juniper Cup is May 6, 2017 at 1:00 pm. 

• Even if a member declined to participate when they first sign up for JHLGC, then they may change their status for the Juniper Cup until the deadline. 

The tournament committee will oversee the selection of teams and team members by use of a blind draw.  Members will be notified of the date, time, and location for the draw. The procedure is as follows:

• The tournament committee will determine the number of teams and team members per team based on the number of members wanting to participate in the Juniper Cup.  Teams will be established as evenly as possible.
• Team captains will be selected by a blind draw from the names of the players wanting to be a captain. 
  • If there are more members that want to be team captain than teams to fill, then all names go into a blind draw.  Team captains will be the names of those first drawn up to the number of teams required. 
  • If there are fewer members that want to be team captain than teams to fill, then all names go into a blind draw.  Team captains will be the names of those first drawn.  The remainder of the teams without a preselected captain will meet individually and select their team captain from the members on the team.
• Team captains, if present, will select their team colors by blind draw. Otherwise the tournament committee will determine
• Team members will be selected in the following order:
  • 2016 Juniper cup participants with more than 400 points (possibly 31 players).
  • Past Juniper Cup participants that played the majority of the events.
  • Past Juniper Cup participants that routiney played in league but not weekend events.
  • The remainder of members that volunteered for the Juniper Cup by handicap index.
    • Any member without an established handicap index will be assigned a handicap index by the Handicap Committee and the Juniper Hill Golf Professional.
• If the teams are not filled after the drawing, players may be added on a rotational basis until the teams are filled. 

EVENTS

• Only the following events count towards the Juniper Cup:

• Only those weeks where both leagues played will count towards the Juniper Cup, unless weeks can be matched due to weather events.   No points will be awarded if play is called because of weather, except when leagues can be matched for attendance points.

• Wednesday league’s Match Play counts for participation points only.
• Juniper Cup standings will be updated regularly and posted on the website.
