16.        THE ANDREW MENTIS COMPETITION

      (i)    The competition shall be conducted annually within the three handicap divisions as determined by the Club
              Executive and shall be for the highest aggregate score of a member's five best rounds during a playing year at
              monthly meetings of the NOMADS Golf Club.

      (ii)   The qualifying minimum number of cards shall be 6 in the playing year and once so qualified the Member's best
              5 cards shall be selected to count for this competition. 

      (iii)   In selecting cards of identical scores, that card shall be selected which was played off the lower handicap. 

      (iv)   A Member's division shall be determined by the total handicap he received in his five selected cards.

                'A' Division    - 40 points and under
                'B' Division    - 41 points to 70 points
                'C' Division    - 71 points and over.

These divisions may be varied at the discretion of the Club Executive.

        (v)    Any Member who misses his own NOMADS Club monthly meeting but plays during that same month in
                another NOMADS Club monthly meeting may count his card towards his Andrew Mentis qualification at his
                own Club but such scores shall not count towards his aggregate score.

        (vi)   In the event of a tie, the count-out shall be awarded to the player with the lower handicap total of his five cards;
                if these be identical then the count-out shall be awarded to the player having entered the greater number of
                cards during the year. Should the score still be tied, preference shall be given to the player with the 6th best
                score and so on. A further tie shall be decided by lot.

        (vii)  First, second and third prizes shall be awarded in each handicap division. Fourth prizes may be awarded at
                 the discretion of the Club Executive.    

        (viii)  The Andrew Mentis Trophy shall be awarded to the overall winner, irrespective of his division, and shall be
                  held by that Member for a period of one year, but shall at all times remain the sole property of the NOMADS
                  Golf Club.
