Page 17 Region 2 Angelo State University Conference 1A

Disqualification: According to UIL rules, a player disqualified for an unsportsmanlike conduct violation COULD have all scores posted by the player not count toward the team score. For example, a player disqualified for unsportsmanlike conduct during the first round will not be allowed to continue. First round scores of a player disqualified for unsportsmanlike conduct during the second round may or may not be cancelled. Thus, the first day or second day score may not be used for the team score. Unsportsmanlike conduct is defined as profane, vulgar and/or abusive language au- dible to others; carelessly and/or deliberately throwing clubs; verbalizing with intent of intimidation; or exhibiting behavior not in accordance with spirit of fair play. First consideration of penalty should be per USGA rules. If the golfer’s action warrants, penalty may be disqualification for the round, and/or in the opinion of the tournament director the violation is flagrant, disqualification could be for the tournament. Please note that in accordance with USGA Rules of Golf, a player who cannot complete the round because of illness or injury is not subject to disqualification for the remainder of the tournament if the tournament director of the Rules Committee is no- tified and the reason satisfactory. Coaches’ Meeting: There will be a coaches’ meeting (for both boys and girls) at 8:00 p.m. Sunday, April 10, in Classrooms C-D in the Junell Center/Stephens Arena on South Jackson Street. Coaches/Spectators: The following rules should be discussed with all participants and coaches. Coaches, parents, and interested spectators should be reminded that they are spectators, and it is not their responsibility to report possible rule violations. Rule violations should be reported by the players or the marshals of the meet. Parents, friends, and other spectators should stay a substantial distance from competitors during play. After play has started, coaches and parents may not coach “or advise” players. A player is subject to a two stroke penalty on the first offense and disqualification by tournament officials if the coaching continues. On course encouragement, support, applause, etc., is not considered coaching or advice; therefore, it is permissible. Also, coaches are allowed, in fact encouraged, to talk with their players “at the turn” (after 9 holes) as long as starting play on the back nine is not unduly delayed. Practice Rounds: Individuals and/or teams qualifying for regional golf play may be permitted one practice round of 18 holes at the site of the regional tournament. There will be one tee time per team. Practice rounds are only allowed Sunday, April 10.
