Same competition - different CSS for age groups

[3offTheTee]

Played at Royal Dornoch today which was excellent but the wind and rain were in abundance.

There were 4 different age groups, you can check the web site.

There were 3 CSS at 72 and one at 74 for the youngest age group.

Is this allowed and if so why?

Presumably each age group was run as a separate competition.

CONGU 18.9
When a club runs two or more separate competitions on the same day a separate
Competition Scratch Score shall normally be calculated for each competition.

If, however, all competitors in the separate competitions play from the same set of tees on a given
course and the same competition format is used, the Affiliated Club may elect to calculate
one CSS using the Single CSS Adjustment using the procedure detailed in Appendix B
(Clauses 2.1 to 2.4).

These results are on Royal Dornoch's website and do appear to be 4 separate competitions.
