Section 2: Analysing the Open Tournament

6 Create a new spreadsheet document and enter the tournament results as shown
in Appendix 2.

7 You will need to use a formula to calculate the “net score” for each player.

Write down the formula you intend you use for Peter’s net score.

8 There is a feature of the package which will use the formula for Peter’s net
score and will insert the correct formulae for the other players automatically.

Name the feature

Use this feature to insert the other net scores.

9 You will now have to use a formula containing a function which will calculate
the average score for the first team. This function will give the average of
Peter, Harry and Jane’s net scores.

It should appear in line with the team captain’s name (Peter).

Write down the formula you intend to use below.

Enter the formula into the document and check that it works correctly.

10 Enter the formulae for the other teams so that the average for each team is
displayed in line with each captain’s name.

11 Format the values in the average column to one decimal place.

12 Save the file and get a hard copy of both the document and the formulae used in
the document. Label the hard copies and store them in a safe place.

Appendix 1

The following text is to be included on page 2 of the presentation.

The following section of text will be loaded from disk. Your teacher will tell you where to
find the file.

The annual Junior Hasilton Golf Week for 2005, which was held during the second
week of August, proved to be very popular with our junior members. The event was
first introduced in the Hasilton golf club three years ago with the aim of encouraging
juniors to take a more active role in the social life of the club and provide a chance for
new members to meet and make new friends.

Hole in one!
Spectators were stunned during the “nearest the hole” competition which was held on
the fourth hole (par 3), when junior player Mark Crawford played a nine iron shot from
the tee which landed on the green, ran three feet and dropped into the hole! Seniors
looked on in envy as many have never achieved a hole in one despite having played for
30 years.

Hasilton Junior Competitions included:

Longest drive
Nearest the hole
Texas scramble
Putting
The Tournament

The following piece of text must be entered by you into the document as instructed in step 3.

Once again we are very grateful to those senior members who gave up their own time to
help manage the competitions and organize events.

The net score is the gross score minus the handicap.

The team average is the average of the net scores of the three players in the team. This
should be displayed in the same row as the team captain’s name.
