2014 JNJG Futures Average
The JNJG Futures Average is designed to find the best up and coming JNJG golfers, playing in a number of JNJG and local club junior events.
The eligibility criteria for this lot of averages will be changed in 2015.
Eligibility Criteria
The following information defines the eligibility criteria which must be met to be eligible for the JNJG Futures Average.

- Players are placed into divisions, with the age they are turning in 2014 determining what age division they are in.
(Example – Peter is born on April 23rd, 1999. in 2014, Peter turns 15, so he is placed into the 15 Years Division on the JNJG Futures average, regardless of how many rounds he plays as a 14 year old)

Calculation of JNJG Futures Scoring Average
Girls
All Scores are calculated to an average par of 72.
Scores returned on a course with an Australian Course Scratch Rating of less than 72 will be increased by the number of strokes by which the rating is below 72.
Scores returned on a course with an Australian Course Scratch Rating of more than 72 will be decreased by the number of strokes by which the rating is above 72.
(Example - Sarah plays the Penrith Open and shoots a scratch score of 79. The Australian Course Scratch Rating is 75. As the AWCR is above 72 by 3 shots, Sarah's score is decreased by 3 shots. Sarah's adjusted score is 76).
Boys
All Scores are calculated to an average par of 70.
Scores returned on a course with an Australian Course Scratch Rating of less than 70 will be increased by the number of strokes by which the rating is below 70.
Scores returned on a course with an Australian Course Scratch Rating of more than 70 will be decreased by the number of strokes by which the rating is above 70.
(Example - Rory plays the Penrith Open and shoots a scratch score of 75. The Australian Course Scratch Rating is 72. As the AWCR is above 70 by 2 shots, Sarah's score is decreased by 2 shots. Rory's adjusted score is 73).
No Score Returned
In the event of a scorecard not returned by a player, the following will apply:
- A player who starts a round and does not return their scorecard will be recorded as scoring 20 shots over their handicap.
- A player who is disqualified for an incorrect score card or rule infringement will be recorded as scoring 20 shots over their handicap.
- A player who cannot complete a round due to a valid reason (eg - illness or injury), will have no score recorded.
