This golf sweepstake is organised by and for the benefit of Fota Island. SnipeGolf provides the technology platform only. SnipeGolf collects no entry fees and makes no prize payouts. All monies are handled solely by Fota Island. This is a private social event between members and patrons of the club.

4. Entry
Entries must be submitted before the advertised deadline. Late entries may not be accepted at the organiser's discretion. Each person may enter once unless the organiser permits multiple entries.
5. Picks & Brackets
Participants must select 2 golfers from each of 4 brackets (8 picks total). All picks must be from the stated bracket. Duplicate picks are not permitted. The organiser reserves the right to verify picks and correct any errors.
6. Withdrawals (WD)
If a selected golfer withdraws from the tournament before Thursday's first round, SnipeGolf may automatically replace them with the next available player in the same bracket. This replacement is final. No replacements are made after 10pm Wednesday (UK time). After that, the withdrawn player's score counts as the MC/WD penalty.
7. Scoring & Tiebreakers
Scoring is based on the sum of all 8 picks' tournament scores (to par). Players who miss the cut or withdraw receive a penalty as specified in the Config. Tiebreakers are resolved in order: (1) Sum of all picks' scores; (2) Most top-place finishes among picks; (3) Closest tiebreaker prediction (under wins equal distance). The organiser's decision is final.
8. Prize
