A GAP Member Play Day participant may request positions for up to four people. GAP Member Play Days are open to all amateur (male/female/juniors over the age of 14) Golf Association of Philadelphia individual members with a valid GAP/USGA Handicap. Each participant will have an opportunity to play in an event that awards prizes in various flights. A net Stableford scoring system is used.
