Try out the “Race to Doña Julia” league, part of the social league. All tournaments are open, allowing both members and visitors to compete for each tournament prize and the final prize.

Located on the Costa del Sol, our golf league has established itself as a tradition and a must-attend event for lovers of our sport.

Shotgun starts at 9:00am.

Doña Julia Golf will create a Handicap Ranking based on results achieved in a series of tests. Only players with a valid federation license can be included in the rankings and receive the prizes and benefits derived from them.

Participants

These tournaments are reserved for amateur players with a valid federation license.

Categories

Single category.

Game Format

The tests will be played under the individual Stroke Play over 18 holes (Medal Play) or points game, Stableford, as determined by the circuit committee.

Rules of Play

The tournaments will be played according to the Rules of Golf, competition conditions, and permanent Local Rules of Doña Julia.

Placing the ball on closely mown grass is allowed in all tests.

Distance measuring devices are allowed.

If a participant arrives late to the tee after making the shot for any reason, the penalty is 2 strokes. If arriving more than 10 minutes late, they will be disqualified.

From the Competition Committee and for the smooth running of the tests, we are against slow play; for this reason, we reserve the right to not accept scorecards submitted after 4:45 hours of play.

Classification of Each Test
