Aces For Earth
About this tournament
TWO ROUNDS - DOUBLES - BYOP or RANDOM
No partner? No problem - you will be teamed up randomly with someone in your division.
$25 each or $50 a team for two rounds - $10 from each team will go towards the Ace Pool (less the cost of trophies)
- Round 1 - Team Doubles - Best shot
- Both players throw from each lie (starting with the tee shot), then the team chooses which of the resulting lies to continue play from, until the hole is completed.
- Round 2 - Team Doubles - Alternate Shot
- The team selects a player to throw the tee shot at the beginning of the round. The other player then throws from the subsequent lie, and play alternates in that fashion until the round is completed. Alternate Shot is closer to a singles format, where one partner can't bail the other out. If you miss a short putt, chances are good that you'll be driving the next hole.
TEAM NAMES:
- Make up a team name when you register or recieve one at random.
- Team names carry over to next round but players can switch teams as desired at the event.
THREE DIVISIONS:
- Rec

PRIZES:

Trophies for top team in each round, each division

GAMES / RAFFLE:
- $20 from each entry fee goes directly to charity
- The sustainability charities (see below) will have booths set up at certain tees around the course.
- They will discuss their initiatives around Denver while serving refreshments to the participants
- Each booth will have a $1 Ace Challenge - Ace takes half the pot on the spot
- Play in the Ace Raffle for another chance to win
FOOD:
Some of the best food trucks will be onsite staring at 10am. 10% of the proceeds will be donated to charity
ABOUT:
