Entrants can compete in one or all divisions for which they are eligible. What is a non-amateur? This is a player that has given up his amateur status in order to win money playing tournament golf. A player who has forfeited his Amateur Status is free to play in any Tour or other non-amateur format that he wishes to and will not in any way affect such a player's membership of his club. Furthermore such a player will be free to continue playing at any other club that will accept him with any other form of acceptable handicap.
All amateurs and non-amateurs will compete off their tour handicaps, and in-house handicapping will ensure fair play for all. Cheating of any kind will not be tolerated. The inaugural events for the 2009 series have kicked off during May in Gauteng. IGT expects to host 50 to 70 events in 2009.
