The Golf Impact Competition runs from mid-April to the end of September, with a final weekend in October.
You can choose the full competition or half the competition. And yes, if you really want to play a lot, you can participate in both.
Are you deciding between the full and half-season competitions? The biggest difference is the pace and number of matches. In the full season, you'll face every two weeks . This means you'll play more often, and if you don't take a break, you'll be paired with 11 opponents . You'll play at least 8 matches to be fully eligible, and the season culminates in a final weekend (October 10–11, outdoors) . Your handicap range is also taken into account as much as possible in the placement, so you'll play against players of a similar skill level more often.
The half-season competition is designed for those who want more free time. You'll face a new opponent every 28 days six opponents . You have to play four matches mixed handicap (and separate pools are only created if there's a lot of interest). There's no fixed final weekend yet; it can only be scheduled if there's a lot of interest.
