Running A NITELITE Tournament
NITELITE® Golf Tournaments & Events have
offered many hours of FUN, excitement and increased revenue for thousands
of golf clubs, courses and major resorts around the world for over 13
years. Now, with the addition of the MACH 01 NITELITE® Golfball, the
real FUN has just begun.
The MACH 01 plays and putts just like a regulation golfball. The Jumbo
1.5 lightsticks allow the golfball to glow 2.7 times BRIGHTER and is easier
to see and find than any other night golfball. Golfballs glow from 6-8
hours and there is no need to use a charging mechanism.
Now, with the addition of colored lightsticks, other golf games at night
can be easily played. To help you organize a really successful NITELITE®
Golf Tournament or event, we have outlined some key questions and answers
for you to think about:
A successful Tournament should be held with at least 36 players in 4
person teams. The number of players can increase to 72 for a nine hole
Tournament. Should your participation level increase beyond that amount,
the number of holes played should be increased to accommodate players.
Should the number increase significantly, all 18 holes of the golf course
can be played. Tournaments are usually played in a Shot-Gun Scramble/Best
Ball to speed up play.
-
The first thing to think about is the layout of your golf course.
Will a lot of water come into play? Are the fairways
open or narrow?
Consider the ability and the number of players. Rule of thumb is at
least one golfball per person and one extra per foursome. However, if
hazards (water) come into play, the number should be increased to at
least two per person and 1 extra per team.

Giant
Tee Markers are about 11 inches high and 8 inches around, are an
excellent tool to light the Tee Boxes. These are re-useable by inserting
a new 6" lightstick into the Giant Tee. The Giant Tees come with one
6" green lightstick but can also be lit using red, blue, yellow or white
6" lightsticks.
6" Green Lightsticks are used to light 150 yard markers and are attached
to the top of the Flagpoles. One can also be taped to the middle of
the flagpole for extra color.
6" Red Lightsticks are used to mark hazard areas such as cart paths,
water, bridges and especially sand traps that are located adjacent to
greens. 6" Green Lightsticks are also used to light up the green. Place
lightsticks on approach to greens at 2-3 foot intervals to identify
the green and therefore allow players to select the correct club. This
also adds a festive touch to the Course.
3" Light Circles can be used to light up the cup. Place the circle
up against the flagpole and when pole is pulled, circle will drop in
cup. Last player putting replaces flagpole and props up the circle for
the next team of players. 6" Lightsticks can also be used here as well
as a number of 1.5" lightsticks placed in the cup.
3" Light Circles are also used to light up players. The circles have
an adhesive on the back which when removed can be attached to the backs
of players, hats, or golf bags.
3" Light Circles are also used to light up golf carts.
Place one in the front and one in the back, of the cart for safety.
Players can now see cart in front of them. Light up beverage carts too.
22" Necklaces are used to light up the players. Provide one necklace
per player. Necklaces come in tubes of 50 and are available in Green,
Multi-Color
and Tri-Color Red/White/Blue. Extra necklaces are also a good way
to add extra color when wound down the flagpole.
22" Necklaces are also used to outline the perimeter of greens especially
for large putting events when the entire greens are lit up in green.
Different colors can be used to identify other putting greens. They
are also used to decorate golf carts for use during the Tournament,
by attaching to the top and rails of cart. Tiki Torches and Lighted
Candles in bags also add a festive touch to fairways, tee boxes and
hazard areas.

Replacement
1.5" Jumbo lightsticks are available in packs of 50 and now can
also be had in colors in addition to the traditional "yellow-green"
that is initially supplied with the golfball. Colors are: Red, White,
Blue, Deep Green and Orange.
6" replacement lightsticks are also available in Bags of 25 for red
and green. Other colors are packaged individually.
You should begin lighting your course at least 1 - 1 ½ hours prior to
your Tournament to allow sufficient time to place lightsticks, etc.
in desired locations.
-
Major resorts host putting events for parties of 200 persons or more,
combining cocktails, food and music for a special evening event along
with greens that are lit with torches, lightstick filled glowing balloons
and more. Closest-To-The-Pin, Putting Challenges, and Longest Drives
all make for great fund-raising activities. Ask us for the Details!
- Is there anything else I need to know?
Ensure that players bring flashlights and that they are only used for
direction. No flashlights to be used while playing. Also, hand out or
read the Official NITELITE® Golf Rules to your players prior to
your Tee Time. Relax, join in the festivities and have a great time!
