Alcoa Back Nine Fall League · FAQ
What if my score is in the top 8, but I'm tied with another player?
All players in the top 8 ranks will make it to the final, including tied players. We will allow more than 8 players at the final.
How is my handicap decided?
By your B9 indoor handicap — the Bridge — which reads your game and adapts as you post rounds. You play on a fair field from day one.
Where do I register and score my rounds?
Inside Full Swing Compete — your Back Nine host shares the event there. Heads up: the verification code lands in your main inbox, usually from "Full Swing Sports" — if it isn't there, check Promotions and every other folder.
What should I do on the day I play?
Log into Full Swing Compete first, then launch the round your host shares. The handicap box at the bay is optional — nothing you type there reaches your Back Nine score; your net is taken from your registration.
Can I stop mid-round, or what if I have a bad hole?
Stopping is fine — but finish the hole you're on, or no score records for it, and a finished hole can't be redone. Come back later inside the event window.
How do you keep it fair?
The Bridge reads across the rounds you post and gives you a number that fits your game, so a newer player and a strong player get a real fight. Honest rounds clear without a word.
How do points and standings work?
Your result sets your position on this event's board, and tied players share the position. You earn points on where you finish each week. The Points Race is this event's season standing — not the cumulative total on the leaderboard. This is your venue's own board — local play does not feed a national season total.
Who do I contact with a question?
Your Back Nine host, or a Back Nine team member — we run this event's scoring and standings directly.
