C1 Progression
C1 Progression is a putting game which varies the putting distance between 5 and 10 meters based on the players result in the previous frame.
What is a Frame? A frame consists of 5 putts.
How many frames are in a standard C1 Progression game? 20 frames.
How is the putting distance determined? The first frame starts at 10 meters. The number of putts the player makes in a frame determines the distance the player will putt from in the following frame.

How does scoring work? The points for each putt made is equivalent to the distance of the putt. For example, a putt from 5 meters is worth 5 points, a putt from 6 meters is worth 6 points, and so on. In a full C1 Progression game, the maximum score is 1,000 points.
Are there stance violations? Yes. Players must demonstrate full control of balance behind the designated distance marker after releasing a putt. A player failing to do so has committed a stance violation and the putt is disqualified.
How are stance violations called? Stance violations are self regulated apart from Finals where a match referee is present. A player is responsible for calling stance violations on themselves and may consult their opponents and fellow playing partners to determine if a stance violation was committed.
