Welcome to the <strong>2016</strong> <strong>Lombard</strong> <strong>Trophy</strong><br />

The PGA and <strong>Lombard</strong>, in association with The Royal Bank of Scotland, and with the support of Pestana Resorts<br />

and Coca-Cola, are pleased to announce this year’s call for entries to one of the country’s most highly regarded<br />

and eagerly anticipated Club events, The <strong>Lombard</strong> <strong>Trophy</strong>.<br />

<strong>Lombard</strong> and The Royal Bank of Scotland are<br />

action, in accordance with the Association’s Tournament Regulations, if<br />

for example the club fails to return their TEAM CONFIRMATION FORM<br />

to the Association by the due date, withdraws following the closing date<br />

or fails to be represented as required at the presentation of prizes.<br />

2. Club Qualifying Round<br />

Round.<br />

(ii)<br />

(iii)<br />

Medal or Stableford events may be used for the Club Qualifying<br />

Round. Bogey or Par competitions are not permitted.<br />

Once the date of the Club Qualifying Round has been arranged, the<br />

Club must complete and return the CLUB ENTRY FORM to The PGA<br />

or enter this information online via the participating Members PGA<br />

(v)<br />

(vi)<br />

The amateur who returns the best nett score or points total in the<br />

Club Qualifying Round qualifies to represent the Club at the respective<br />

Regional Final.<br />

In the event of a qualifying amateur from the Club Qualifying Round<br />

being unable to compete in the Regional Final for any reason, the<br />

runner-up in the Club Qualifying Round may be substituted. Should<br />

the runner-up be unable to play, the club must work down the results<br />

sheet in order from third position onwards, until a substitute amateur<br />

partner is determined.<br />

(vii) The total of the amateur entry fees, which must be a minimum of £50<br />

or in the case of the Republic of Ireland €67.50 based on an exchange<br />

rate of 1.35 if paying by cheque, should be forwarded to The PGA<br />

along with the TEAM CONFIRMATION FORM, PRESS PUBLICITY<br />

any time.<br />

The Regional Finals are decided over 18 holes unless conditions<br />

require the number of holes to be reduced as per PGA Tournament<br />

Regulations.<br />

In the event of a tie, winners will be decided by a card play-off as<br />

follows: the lowest last 9, 6, 3, 1 holes. If a tie still remains the result<br />

will be determined by a match play, hole-by-hole play-off from<br />

the better ball scores recorded on the card starting at the first hole<br />

of the round.<br />

Information for competitors and the draw for starting times will<br />

be sent via e-mail to The PGA Professional approximately two weeks<br />

prior to the Regional Finals. They will also be available from<br />

www.pga.info<br />

Final. Amateurs in the leading three teams receive prizes and these<br />

teams are therefore required to be represented at the presentation.<br />

4. Grand Final<br />

(i) The <strong>2016</strong> <strong>Lombard</strong> <strong>Trophy</strong> Grand Final will be a 36 hole four-ball stroke<br />

In the event of a tie for first place in the Grand Final, a hole-by-hole<br />

play-off will be held, the winning team of which will be champions.<br />

The play-off will commence when possible from hole 1 and continue,<br />

playing the holes in order until a winner is determined. If applicable,<br />

handicap strokes will apply. Teams losing in such a play-off will be<br />

placed according to card play-off results unless performance in the<br />

hole-by-hole play-off determines these positions prior to the<br />

champions being determined. Card play-off, if applicable, will operate<br />

as follows: lowest last 18, 9, 6, 3 and 1 holes. If a tie still remains<br />

the result will be determined by a match play hole-by-hole play-off<br />

from the better ball scores recorded on the card starting at the first<br />

hole of the final round. If still tied, the same procedure will apply<br />

to the round 1 card.<br />

In the event of either the amateur or The PGA Professional of a<br />

winning team at a Regional Final leaving the Club before the Grand<br />

Final, or if the team is unable to participate in the Grand Final, the<br />

team finishing second in the relevant Regional Final will take the<br />
