* GOLFER OF THE YEAR QUALIFIER IF UNABLE TO HONOUR TEE TIME PLEASE REMOVE NAME FROM TIME-SHEET AT YOUR EARLIEST OPPORTUNITY 8 online booking now in operation ETIQUETTE

Courtesy on the Course Players searching for a ball should signal the players behind them to pass as soon as it becomes apparent that the ball will not easily be found. They should not search for five minutes before doing so. They should not continue play until the players following them have passed and are out of range.

When the play of a hole has been completed, players should immediately leave the green.

Priority on the Course In the absence of special rules, two-ball matches should have precedence over, and be entitled to pass, any three or four ball match.

A single player has no standing and should give way to a match of any kind.

Any match playing a whole round is entitled to pass a match playing a shorter round. CARE OF THE COURSE

HOLES IN BUNKERS Before leaving a bunker, a player should carefully fill up and smooth over all holes and footprints made by him.

REPLACE DIVOTS, REPAIR BALL MARKS AND DAMAGE BY SPIKES

Through the green, a player should ensure that any turf cut or displaced by him is replaced at once and pressed down and that any damage to the putting green made by a ball is carefully repaired. Damage to the putting green caused by golf spikes should be repaired on completion of the hole.

Adjustments to playing handicaps, both increasing and decreasing shall be made as soon as it is practically possible after close of competitions, and displayed in a prominent place in the club. This will be done automatically after each competition.

A Player must not make an upward adjustment themselves, Players must reduce their handicap immediately before playing in another competition.
