Pace of Play, Format, Scoring & Ties

The RMJGT Pace of Play Policy is in effect and is set at 4 hours 45 minutes.  This is a stroke play event.  For all players, the competition consists of 4 rounds of 9 holes.  All players must report to the scoring area, without delay when their round is complete.  You have left the scoring area when you returned your card and moved outside the marked scoring area. In the event of a tie for first place, there will be a sudden death playoff on the course.  If that is not feasible matching scorecards will determine final positions.  

Rulings

Resolving Rules Issues During Round:  1) Request a ruling from a Rules Referee or 2) play two golf balls under rule 20.1c(3).  Before playing either ball, you must announce which ball’s score you want to use, you must finish the hole with both balls, and you must report the facts to the Committee at scoring. 

LOCAL RULES / CONDITIONS OF NOTE

Out of Bounds (OB)

OB is identified and defined by the course side edge at ground level of white posts, boundary fence posts, split rail fences, white dots and certain roads (R side of 10)  

Ground Under Repair (GUR)

GUR is the area from which optional free relief is available, and is defined by white lines. GUR includes areas of unusual damage including area of cart traffic or seasonal conditions such as tire ruts that displaced dirt. Tire tracks on grass are not GUR.  Areas of bare dirt, unprepared sand, rocky soil, tree roots and tree stumps are not GUR. Patches/Sod Seams you can take a club length of relief no closer to the hole (drop). 

Penalty Areas:

Penalty areas are identified by red/yellow stakes. Areas of primarily higher natural grass are part of the general area and are not penalty areas. The penalty areas are defined (in order of priority) by (1) red/yellow lines,(2) for mow line (between rough and dense vegetation (3) where ground falls towards water.  Where the course is not on the other side of a penalty area, the penalty area extends to infinity. For penalty areas that coincide with out of bounds, the edge of the penalty area is adjacent and just inside the edge of the out of bounds area. Cart paths or bridges inside the edge of penalty areas are part of the penalty areas. 

Immovable Obstructions (IOs)

IOs include cart paths (dirt, gravel or paved) and adjacent worn areas, landscaped areas, hole monuments, buildings, split rail fences if not boundary objects, utility boxes, drain grates and pipes. Boulders are integral objects from which free relief is not allowed.

LOCAL RULES                                                                                                                                                        

1. If your ball is within two club-lengths of an IO (for example a sprinkler head), if the IO is within two club-lengths of the putting green and if your line of play is interfered with by the IO, you may take free relief.
2. If you drop your ball using back on the line relief and your ball rolls forward but comes to rest within one club-length of where it first touched the course, you have taken relief properly.
3. If your ball played from the green accidentally hits you, your club used for the stroke or an animal defined as a loose impediment, your stroke counts and your ball must be played as it lies.
4. If your club is significantly damaged during your round, other than through your abuse, you may replace the club during your round.

Caddies will not be permitted at this event. 

A player’s age division is determined by his/her age during round two. A player can move up during the middle of the season. For example, if a player is 14 and starts the season in the 11-14 division, but then turns 15 during within the middle of the season will then play the remainder of the season from the 15-19 division. Points do not roll over to another division. Players can earn points in two age divisions.

In the event the Boys 10 and Under and/or Girls 10 and Under divisions have one player in the field, that player will be grouped with the rest of the 10U players, therefore boys and girls may be paired together and playing the same yardages.

Points will be distributed to players who place first through tenth, in the division they play in during that event.
