Team Substitution Policy

 

If an individual player is unable to compete at any level of the LPGA Amateur Cup, a substitution will be permitted. In order to maintain the integrity of the original team, the number of substitutions for a team that is advancing to Cup Finals is limited to two players. If there are not 2 original members advancing, the team must submit a Decline to Advance form.

All substitutes must meet the LPGA Amateur Cup eligibility requirements and be registered to play fourteen (14) days prior to the start of competition. After the 14-day deadline, emergency substitution may be allowed, however the incoming player should have a handicap index within 2 strokes of the player they are replacing. If a substitute can not be found, in Singles play, the team will forfeit the match. For the Four-Ball matches, the player without a partner will play a Best-Ball format – their ball against the best ball of the other two opponents in the match.
