52 members entered this tournament with the goal of winning their specific flight as well as qualifying in the NCGA Net Amateur Tournament. There were 4 flights. RSMC was allowed to send only two players for the NCGA competition, because RSMC had less than 150 members as of the deadline in January.

Course was in excellent shape.  The greens were fairly fast, with a few challenging pin placements. The weather was warm, and there was essentially no wind.

Once again, GHIN Indexes were used for this tournament because all the members who had entered had a higher tournament index calculated when compared to their GHIN Index. The Board agreed that the lower of the two indexes was to be used.
