Preferred Lies and Winter Rules

Occasional local abnormal conditions that might interfere with fair play and are not widespread should be defined as ground under repair (Rule 25). However, adverse conditions, such as heavy snows, spring thaws, prolonged rains or extreme heat can make fairways unsatisfactory and sometimes prevent use of heavy mowing equipment. When these conditions are so general throughout a course that the Committee believes preferred lies or winter rules would promote fair play or help protect the course. If the player fails to mark the position of the ball before lifting it or moves the ball in any other manner, such as rolling it with a club, he incurs a penalty of one stroke.

*PENALTY FOR BREACH OF LOCAL RULE: Match Play — Loss of hole;

*If a player incurs the general penalty for a breach of this Local Rule, no additional penalty under the Local Rule is applied.

DISPUTES:

During a league match, any dispute, which cannot be resolved, must be referred to the rules committee for a ruling to be resolved prior to leaving the course. The scorecard should be marked to indicate that a dispute or question exists. All players involved in the dispute must meet with the rules committee.

TEAM CAPTAINS:

The team captains will be responsible for making sure their team members show up and play each scheduled match. They will also assist in arranging make-up matched when possible.

UNPLAYABLE BALL (LIE):

Water Hazards/Any Hole :

USGA rules apply. You may give up on any hole. If you do, you must take an “X” on that hole. You will lose the “2” points for stoke play for taking the “X”. You will only loose the hole you have taken an “X” for match play, you can continue on to the next tee and play the rest of the holes. You could still win “2” points for match play.

SCORECARDS:
