Since 1971, The NCGA Points Program has determined the player of the year. In 1995, a senior award was added. In 2004, Spencer Levin established a record that will be difficult to top, earning 2,770 points on the strength of California State Amateur and NCGA Amateur titles as well as earning low amateur honors at the U.S. Open. The senior record was established in 2008 by Del Rio’s Jeff Burda with 2,459 points. Burlingame’s Randy Haag (pictured right) has the distinction of holding the most Player of the Year Awards at six, with Casey Boyns close behind at four.
The NCGA Points Year is October 1 through Septemb 30 of the following year. All players begin each new points year at zero. The tournament finish date determines which year points will be awarded. Should an event change dates that would cause the event to be played twice in one points year then points will be awarded twice within that given year.
In order to earn NCGA Player Points, contestants must be amateur golfers who are current members of the club in good standing of the NCGA. This includes being in compliance with the NCGA Handicap Certification Program. The USGA’s definition of an amateur golfer is the standard of the NCGA. Players must have a current numeric index listed on the master report prior to the start of the event. Anyone who has not established a current numeric index is ineligible for points. Players suspended from NCGA competitions are not eligible to earn points.
All points will be assigned by the NCGA ONLY based on the official results provided by the tournament.
