If you would like to see who the "Senior Player of the Year" winners were in 2006 and 2005, the results for this competition are shown at the bottom of this page.
The amount of prize money will be determined based on the total number of members who choose to participate as of May 1, 2007. Those members who choose to join this competition will contribute $5.00 to the SPY pool of money.
PARTICIPATION points are awarded as follows: 10 points to each member who plays at non-PML SVS courses and 20 points to each member who plays in the SVS events at PML.
