How do I get into FUFA?
FUFA is invitation-only. The roster is 32 deep and there's a waitlist. If you've been invited, organizers will reach out with sign-up info. If you haven't — keep playing well and being nice to people.
What does it cost?
Entry covers four rounds of golf at Gamble Sands, the draft party, team gear, and a contribution to Knock Knock Angels. Exact number gets confirmed each year and is sent to the roster directly. Lodging and travel are on you.
How are flights decided?
By verified handicap, locked before the event. The 8 lowest go into Flight A, next 8 into B, then C, then D. Every team drafts exactly one player from each flight.
Do I need a USGA handicap?
A current, legitimate handicap index — yes. We use it to set flights and calculate strokes per hole. Sandbagging is a sport here, but the kind we mock, not the kind we reward.
How does the draft work?
It's randomized. Each team picks one player from each flight on Draft Night. After all 32 are picked, the 8 teams get split randomly into two sides of the bracket. Then the bracket is set.
What's the Unicorn?
Lowest single-round net score of the entire tournament. Team standings don't matter. If you go low enough, the Unicorn is yours — until somebody goes lower.
Can my family come?
Absolutely. Brewster, WA isn't huge, but Gamble Sands has lodging and the surrounding area is beautiful in August. We're building a Fan Page in the app so family can follow the leaderboard live.
What charity are we supporting in 2026?
Knock Knock Angels — a nonprofit bringing joy and comfort to children fighting cancer and empowering struggling families to start fresh.

What is "The Marshal"?
A chatbot inside the member app. He knows the Rules of Golf, the FUFA format, the schedule, and the live leaderboard. He's also been instructed to be relentlessly cheeky — he'll answer your rules question and roast your handicap in the same sentence.
