Members Rewards Program - NEW for 2012
In 2012, the Adams Golf Pro Tour will launch our new Member Rewards Program.  The program will award our members for playing in tournaments, registering early for tournaments and referring non-member participation.  Points can be redeemed for tournament credit.  2 points equal $1.  Members may redeem their points throughout the year anytime they have compiled 800 points (equivalent to $400).  All redemptions will be credit towards tournament entries.  No refunds or checks will be cut for this program.  Reward Points are earned as follows:

  • Tournament Participation - 80 points
  • Registering for events by Early Entry Deadline - 35 points
  • Refer a Non Member to play - 35 points

NOTE:  The Early Entry Deadline at each event is on Friday, ten (10) days before each tournament week begins.

Rewards for Referral
Refer a Non Member to play.  Each time a member is referred, he earns 35 points.  How do we know?  There is a spot on the entry form for the non-member to put your name.  Look for 'Referred By' at the bottom of the entry form.


Race to Wichita
-
New for 2012

The Race to Wichita is a points race with an exemption at stake into the Nationwide Tour's 2012 PHS Wichita Open.  The race will include points earned at the first seven (7) Adams Series events (beginning in Victoria and ending in Houston).  Featured events in Alexandria, Houma, & Baton Rouge will have higher point values.  The top points earner after the Houston event will receive a full exemption into the 2012 Preferred Health Systems Wichita Open.
