2012 MEMPHIS GOLFWEEK AMATEUR TOUR REFERRAL PROGRAM
The 2012 season will be our 3rd season, and hopefully our best yet. Our referral program will allow members to be rewarded for their efforts in recruiting newmembers. For the upcoming season, current Memphis/N.MS members who refer 2 new members to sign up and play in at least one tour event will receive 1 paid tournament entry fee! Nice huh, but that’s not all, sign-up 4 friends, get 2 tournament entry fees! Sign-up 6 golfers and get 3 free tournaments!
1) All referrals must be a new member to the tour, not be a member of another tour city, must not already be registered with the Memphis tour, or a member in previous seasons. And each must play in at least one tourney.
2) Referral entry fee credits will not be redeemable for any major tournaments.
3) Referral entry fee credits will be issued once the new player pays for his/her membership and has completed play in one tournament.
4) To count as credit, the referred member MUST include the current members name on the application form when joining (in the “how did you hear about the tour” section), no referral name, and no credit.
5) The maximum number of free entry credits that can be accumulated is 5 (for referring 10 players) and players will be able to carry 1 of them over to the following season.
