Yellow Ball is a game for 4-person teams that puts the onus on one player per hole to come through for the team.

Each group of four players in a scramble has a yellow ball that rotates among players.

In a scramble, each player tees off on each hole. The better of the tee shots is selected and all players play their second shots from that spot. The better of the second shots is determined, and then all play their third shots from that spot, and so on until the ball is holed.  If the best shot chosen is played from the rough or hazard, that ball must be played first.  The other balls must be dropped in the rough or hazard no nearer the hole (within 1 club length).

In this game, two scores per hole are added together for the team score. Here's the catch: One of those two scores must be from the player with the yellow ball. So on each hole, the team score will be the score of the player with the yellow ball, plus the scramble score of the other three players on the team.  The maximum hole score of the yellow ball is par of the hole being played plus 2.

The yellow ball also serves as a “BONUS” competition.  The team with the lowest yellow ball score wins a bonus prize.  If the yellow ball is lost, the team is eliminated from the “BONUS” competition.  The prize should be something yellow, such as a yellow short or ball cap.
