WEEKLY PLAY: The Women’s 9-Hole Section has reserved playing times on Thursday mornings, except for occasional conflicts when our play is rescheduled to Wednesday or cancelled (Calendar.)
No sign ups for tee times (unless there is a special event described below.) Players simply check-in at the golf shop (opens 6:30 am) and then tee-off in threesomes at number 10, on a first-arrived, first-off basis, adjusting to not to leave out any “singles.” All players must tee off before 8:15 during Daylight Savings Time or before 8:30 during winter months.
Pace of play must be maintained at all times. Ready golf is encouraged. To speed up play, allow waiting groups to play through if there is an open hole ahead. Make new members feel welcome and help them get acquainted. Have fun!
In tournament play, every stroke (including wiffs and double hits) must be counted. No adjusted scores (ESC) are allowed; they are for handicapping only. USGA rules apply for regular and tournament play, except where modified by local rules. Winter rules are in effect only when declared.
