You will also need a GHIN handicap. In previous years, you got this from the Captains Pro Shop but now all handicaps are being issued by MassGolf.  Here is a direct link for you to renew your handicap.

If you have one from another club, that works too.  Just include your GHIN number on the application.

The CCMGA exists to promote camaraderie and sportsmanship, to organize competitions and events throughout the year, and to support the operation of the Captains for the benefit of all members and guests.

The CCMGA sponsors and organizes a full calendar of events.

Wednesday – Not just Quota Anymore

• No commitment. Sign up online each week.
• Many formats: Some individual events, some team events.
• Everyone is welcome. We welcome all skill levels!
• Memorial Trophy, a season long points competition.
• Great way to meet other members.

And the best of all… You don’t have to make a tee time! We have early block times for the first couple of hours on Wednesdays.

Effective 7/23/2025, everyone was assigned a Flight for the Memorial Cup based on their
handicap. On 9/3/2025, the top 8 players in each Flight will qualify for Match Play. In the event
of a tie the individual who won the largest amount of money in the most recent event will be
determined as the qualifier.

Note: we are updating the Money list weekly so you will know where you stand and can plan
accordingly.

An Entry Fee of $25.00 per person will be paid on 9/3. These monies will be used to create a
Memorial Cup winners pool of $800.

Matches will be Best Ball Net based on the Individual’s Handicap the day of the match.
Scheduling Matches: All Qualifiers should be available to play matches on 9/3, 9/10, 9/17, and
9/24 unless eliminated. If you cannot commit to these dates, we ask that you opt out and give
your spot to the next highest qualifier prior to the beginning of the Marches. All Matches should
be played in the block time of the regular CCMGA Event.

If for an unforeseen reason a player winning his 9/3 event is not available during any following
Wednesday event, if the 2 players agree, they may opt to play their match prior to the following
Sunday. This will allow time for the Coordinators to schedule the next game. If a date cannot be
agreed upon to play the match, the individual who was available on Wednesday wins by forfeit.
If there is a weather cancellation on a Wednesday, the 2 players should play their match prior to
the following Sunday. If any 2 players cannot agree upon a date, then the Board will conduct a
coin toss to determine the winner. This will serve as an incentive to agree on a date.

After 3 weeks of match play within your Flight, the 4 Flight winners will square off in a medal
play (Net) game to determine the overall Memorial Cup winner.

In the event of a tie in the medal play finals a match of cards will be made as follows:
By comparing net scores on the last nine holes, then the last six, then the last three,
and finally the 18th hole. If a tie persists, the process is repeated for the front nine.

The Payouts will be as follows:
1 st Place: $400
2 nd Place: $250
3 rd Place: $100
4 th Place: $50
