Junior Golf Information

Booking Tee times

It is advised that you always book a tee time through the BRS system. Juniors/Parents are responsible for booking their own tee times for golf, either through the BRS app using their own phone or by contacting the pro shop directly. Supercadets cannot book through BRS and can only book through the pro-shop or the office.

Tee sheets are released on Fridays at 12noon for the upcoming week.

Registration for BRS: To register, use your 8-digit Golf Ireland number, which starts with 3066/5066 (designating Corrstown Golf Club), followed by a unique 4-digit identifier.

Strokes and Stableford competitions

In stroke play, players must finish every hole. Players add up their scores for each hole to get their final score. Each hole must be finished out. The total score gives the player their gross score. When their handicap is taken off the final score their net score is calculated.

Stableford is a scoring system in golf which, rather than counting the total number of strokes taken, involves scoring points based on the number of strokes taken at each hole. When a player has no points remaining it is expected that they lift their ball and finish playing that hole. This hole is scratched.

The Stableford points awarded on each hole is determined by the number of strokes taken to par before being adjusted in relation to the player’s handicap. For example, a player with a handicap of six will be afforded an extra shot on the holes that have a stroke index of one to six. A 24-handicapper, meanwhile, would get two extra strokes on holes with a stroke index of one to six and one extra shot on those with a stroke index of seven to 18.

Points in Stableford are awarded as follows:

• 6 points – Four strokes under
• 5 points – Three strokes under
• 4 points – Two strokes under
• 3 points – One stroke under
• 2 points – Level par
• 1 point – One stroke over
• 0 points – Two strokes or more over

Juniors playing in Adult competitions

Juniors with qualifying handicaps, Junior Boys with a handicap 19.9 or lower and Junior Girls with a handicap 36 or lower are encouraged to take part in men’s or women’s competitions, including majors, throughout the season (subject to terms and conditions).
