2026 Wolfman Woods Challenge Ladder RuleS
Participants may challenge any player positioned up to 6 tag #’s higher.
Matches must be played at Wolfman Woods from any of the 6 normal layouts.
Players must confirm with each other the agreed upon day and time the day before the match to avoid awkward situations like going to the course on the wrong day or the wrong time.
If a player is more than 15 minutes late, the late player shall forfeit the match.
If a player must cancel, the player should try to cancel at least 24 hours in advance and MUST give the other player at least 4 hours notice. If canceling the day of the match, the canceling player should call the other player, not just email, and get confirmation that their message was received. If a player cancels within 4 hours, the other player shall be awarded a default win.
There is no time limit to the matches. If players are unable to finish the match due to weather conditions, light, or course availability, players should reschedule the match. However, players may agree in advance that the winner shall be the person who has the lowest score.
Players may not have more than two matches scheduled at a time. If a player has 2 challenges, he must complete the first challenge before playing against his second challenge.
Participants who are challenged have two weeks to accept the challenge and schedule a match unless injured or on vacation (and the challenge ladder director has been notified ahead of time of the injury or vacation). The challenger is awarded a default win if the challenged player cannot play the ladder match within the 2-week period.
If a player issues a challenge to someone who already has two matches scheduled, the challenger may request to be next in line for a challenge.
Two players may not challenge each other (in either direction) more than once a week, or until one of the two players has played someone else, whichever comes first.
Matches played for any other purpose (e.g., singles league) cannot be counted toward the challenge ladder.
Wolfman Woods may host tag matches where all in attendance can participate and possibly move up or down more than the maximum 6 spots reserved to challenges.
Scoring Rules
Stroke Play: Stroke play is a form of play where a player competes against their opponent in the competition by comparing a total score for one or more rounds. In regular, individual stroke play, you need to hole out on every hole. Each hole score for every hole in the round is added up to calculate your final score.
The winner must notify the ladder director of match results within 24 hours by website submission.
Exemption Rules
Players may request leaves of absence of up to three weeks from the ladder for the purposes of injury, work, or vacation without losing their ladder position. Players must email the ladder director to request this.
If a player requests a leave of absence totaling more than three weeks, the player may stay on the ladder, but will be required to reenter the ladder at the bottom.
Players on leave will be noted in the ladder and will not be counted for purposes of challenging 6 spots higher.
