NORWICH – The Canasawacta Country Club will see 83 pairings spread out over 18 holes for the next four days, playing for a shot at the Member-Guest Championship. In its 60th consecutive year, the event carries a tradition of competitive golf and good times.

Since Sunday, players have started practicing for the tournament as they have played 18 holes as a practice round. The tune-up final session wraps up on Wednesday around 3 p.m. Following the practice round, the putting contest will begin.

The 54 hole, four-ball stroke tournament play will see half of the field pairings start official play Thursday morning with the other half continuing Thursday afternoon to play their first 18 holes of the tournament. On Friday morning, play will continue for another 18 holes. After the first 36 holes have concluded, flights will be determined with the top eight teams of the lowest scores and ties will advance to the Masters Flight. The overall tournament champions will be determined from this flight.

The rest of the field will be evenly broken down into flights with 7-12 teams. Those flights will also have a winner decided and announced at the Awards Dinner on Saturday evening.

The 83 team field feature heavy competition as many past winners are scheduled to tee-off Thursday. However, Tournament Director and Club President Tim Carson said it really is anyone’s tournament.
