Etiquette

The Pace of Play

Please keep up with the golfers in the group ahead.

It is each group's responsibility to keep pace with the group in front. If any group loses a clear hole and delays the group behind, they should invite the group behind to play through, irrespective of the number of players in each group.

Where a group has not lost a clear hole, but it is apparent that the group behind can play faster, it should invite the faster moving group to play through at a convenient hole.

Please remember that players coming off the 9th green have priority on the 10th tee. Single players now have as much right as a group, so if a single player is pressing please invite them through.

Adopt Ready Golf

There is no honour except in Match Play. If you are ready and it is safe, play your shot. Hit your shot before you look for your partner’s ball.

Shorter hitters should play first from the tee or fairway if longer hitters have to wait.

3 minutes are allowed to search for a ball – play a provisional ball, if there is any chance a ball will be lost.

The Spirit of the Game

The game relies on the integrity of every individual to show consideration for other players and to abide by the Rules of Golf.

All players should conduct themselves in a disciplined manner, demonstrating courtesy and sportsmanship at all times, irrespective of how competitive they may be. This is the spirit of the game of golf.

Please rake bunkers and leave them as you would wish to find them, rakes should be left in bunkers.

Repair divots on the fairways and in the rough by replacing the divot. Repair pitch-marks on the greens whether it is your pitch-mark or one made by another golfer.

Please repair any damage to the course that you have created. It is in all Member’s, Guest’s and Visitor’s interests to keep the course in excellent condition.
