Collegiate Doubles

Simple Rules With no Details longer explanations can be seen below
1. A team is made of 4 players divided into two pairs
2. Each pair will have a set teeing order, pair 1 will tee off on all the odds, pair 2 will
tee off on all the evens.
3. Each player from pair 1 will tee off on hole 1. The players from pair 2 will pick the
best shot of those two and play that one. The two pairs will do this back and forth
until the team completes the hole. The team is essentially playing alternate shot
with each pair acting as one person.
4. The teeing order is set from the beginning; it does not change based on which
pair finished the prior hole.
5. Pairings cannot be changed during the round but can be changed in between
rounds.
Building a team
A collegiate doubles team is comprised of 4 players that compete together with
the common goal of winning the tournament. Each team will elect a team captain that
will serve as the team's representative for the event. This captain will then divide the
team into two pairings for the team portions of the tournament. Players will play best
shot doubles within these teams so making pairings that complement each other is
extremely important. These pairings CAN be changed BETWEEN rounds of the
tournament; however, they CANNOT be changed DURING the round of play.
Common methods for making pairings include:
1. Team’s best player with the team's worst player
2. Team’s best forehand player with the player who lacks a forehand or teams best
backhand player with the player who lacks a backhand
3. Team’s best putter with the team’s worst putter
4. Pairs with the most trust, if player A trust player B the most and player C trust
player D the most then the pairings would be AB CD
5. Random pairings that are just the most fun
Playing the round
For this explanation we will have 4 players on the same team. These players will be
called Player A, Player B, Player C and Player D. The pairings for this explanation will
be Player A and Player B (Pair AB) and Player C and Player D (Pair CD).
At the beginning of the round, the team's captain will declare the holes each pair will tee
off on. One pair must tee off on every ODD hole, and the other pair must tee off on
every EVEN hole. This cannot be changed throughout the round. If Pair AB tees off on

hole 1, then they MUST tee off on holes 3,5,7,9,11,13,15 and 17 and Pair CD MUST tee
on holes 2,4,6,8,10,12,14,16 and 18. This works the same for shotgun starts if you are
not teeing on hole 1. If it is a shotgun start and your team starts on hole 4 for example,
whichever pair tees off on hole 4 must then tee on EVENS for the rest of the round,
while the other pair tees off on odds. In simpler terms, the pairs within a team will
alternate tee shots. If pair AB throws the tee shot on one hole, pair CD must throw the
tee shot on the next hole.
After it is determined which pair is throwing the teeshot, each player from that pair will
throw off of the tee. Once both players from that pair throw, the players from the
opposite pair will decide which of the shots is better and proceed to throw from that lie.
After the second pair throws, the pair that teed off will now decide which of pair two’s
shots are better and proceed to throw from that lie. The pairs will continue alternating
throws in this way until the hole is completed. In simpler terms each pair acts as one
person and the team plays alternate shot doubles.
Example: Pair AB is teeing off on a hole. Player A throws a bad shot and Player B
throws a good shot. Pair CD decides that player B threw a better shot than player A, so
they decide to take player B’s shot. Player C and Player D now throw from where player
Bs shot landed and Player A goes and picks up their shot. Player C throws into the
circle behind a big tree and Player D throws just outside the circle with a wide-open putt.
Pair AB decides they would rather take the open putt outside the circle opposed to the
obstructed putt inside the circle. Player A and B then putt from Player Ds disc and
player C picks up his shot. Player A misses the putt; however, player B makes it. The
team has now completed the hole and records a 3 on the scorecard.
Important: The teeing order is not affected by which pair finished the previous hole. If
pair AB is set to tee on odds at the beginning of the round they will tee off on every odd
hole. Even if pair AB is the pair that makes the putt to finish an even hole, they will still
throw the tee shot on the next odd hole.
Example: Pair AB is set to tee on the odd holes. Player A makes the putt on hole 8 in
order to complete the hole for the team. Pair AB will still throw the tee shot on hole 9!
