The PebbleCreek Men’s Golf Association annually conducts a two-man scramble event which serves a dual purpose. It is a regular men’s day tourney, but five teams also qualify to enter the Arizona Golf Association’s Club Team Championship. The tourney was played on Thursday, September 7 at Tuscany Falls.
The senior qualifying teams (age 70+) advancing to the Regionals can play at either Crooked Tree in Tucson (November 7) or at Arrowhead CC (November 27). The other qualifying teams have a choice for the Regionals to play at either Las Colinas (November 2), Crooked Tree (November 7), Wigwam CC (November 9) or Arrowhead Country Club (November 27). The Finals will be played at Seville Golf & Country Club on December 11.
In this event two flights played from the blue tees and two Senior Flights played from the white tees. This was a form-your-own team event which required the two players to have no more than a 10-stroke handicap difference. A total of 53 teams participated.
