Changes and/or Rule Enforcement 2025:

  • The Alumni Tournament is and was established for single class teams to participate at the most competitive level. It is NOT the responsibility of The Tournament to change rules/guidelines to match up to any scenario a particular class desires.

  • You must have an entry in the Mens A tournament or in the Legends in order to have an entry in the Mens B tournament.

  • You must play as a single class team with NO added members from other classes. If you do then you have an illegal player ( see below)

  • 2025 Divisions: Mens A / Legends (20 years out of high school ) /, Masters ( 32 years out of high school aka 50 years old +),/ Mens B, /Ladies Classic, /Women.

  • Legends Division* = 20 years out of high school and older ( 2005 in 2025 and older )

  • Masters Division = 32 years out of high school ( 1993 and older in 2025) In the division if you can not field a single class team then you may combine with either one class older than yours or one class younger —- example = If 1987 wants to combine they must do so with 1986 or 1988 . Teams 60 years old ( 1983 and older) may have multiple classes on the team. Masters will have unlimited pinch runners and will be able to play with 11 defenders.

  • For all scenarios that a class would like to attempt to do something different than what is stated then a comittee of peers will be formed ( 5 people) to vote on a decision - This scenario needs to be submitted via email or similar to the commissioner prior to July 15 for a decision.

  • HR Rule: Mens A - Legends - Masters- Women - Ladies Classic = 6 HR ( over the fence) Mens B = 2 HR ( over the fence) - All others will be an out.

  • Tournament will Begin on Friday July 25 at 6pm for 1st round of games. Division TBD prior to drawing ( probably will be Mens A, B, and Women )

  • ALL games will be played at Fryer Park ( owned by City of GC and rules and regs placed by City ) No golf carts other than workers inside diamond fenced areas. Parking Lots only. Currently working with City on places inside the park to put up tents and places to sit in between games. Fryer park has concessions so no food trucks . There will be alchohol sold at the park so none can be brought into the facility. A portion of the sales are donated back to GCHS to fund the GCHS Hall of Fame.

  • The commissioner can change/alter all rules if it is in the best interest of the tournament as a whole.

  • Any team using an illegal player ( a player not cleared in writing with the commissioner that is not in your class ) will forfeit the game immediately and opponent will be declared winner - this does not need to happen during the contest as stated in typical rule book - we can NOT go back in time after the next games have started.
