COMPETITION RULES
(Revised 2015)
1.
All Championships, Competitions and Matches shall be played according to the
Rules of Golf as approved by the Royal and Ancient Golf Club of St Andrews,
CONGU and the local rules of the club at whose course the event is being played,
in so far as they do not contravene the Rules of Golf and have the approval of the
Competition Committee. The Competition Committee shall be composed of the
President, the Honorary Secretary, the Honorary Competition Secretary and the
Captain of the Host Club. In the event of a dispute relating to the Rules of Golf or to
a competition organised by the Union, the Competition Committee shall arbitrate.
Two members of the committee shall form a quorum.
2.
Except where otherwise stated the competition shall be open to playing members of
member clubs and junior members, as appropriate. Such members shall play under
their correct names and must:
23
(a) Conform to the definition of Amateur Status as laid down by the Royal and
Ancient Golf Club of St Andrews.
(b) Be in possession of a competition CONGU handicap.
(c) Be in possession of insurance covering public liability.
Where a member is a member of two clubs within the Harrogate Union, the member
can only play in all types of competitions for the club which is the Home Club for
handicap purposes at the time.
(d) A member may not represent more than one Union club in Team competitions,
including the Leagues, in a calendar year.
3.
The Union has the right to refuse an application for entry for whatever reason it
deems fit and shall not be required to disclose such reason.
4.
Entry Fees/Prizes for all competitions shall be approved by the Executive Committee.
5. The use of motorised ride-on buggies is generally prohibited in competitions. However, competitors will be permitted to use a ride-on motorised buggy in competitions
upon the prior production of a medical certificate signed by a medical practitioner,
certifying that the competitor is a disabled person within the meaning of the
Disability Discrimination Act 1995 and by reason thereof the competitor is unable
to play golf without the use of a motorised ride-on buggy.
The use of a motorised ride-on buggy is also subject to the approval of the club
hosting the competition, under general health and safety grounds.
The use of motorised ride-on buggies will be permitted without a medical
certificate by players in the Inter Club League 4 ball matches, subject to the above
approval by the host club. Any buggy whenever used must be properly insured.
6.
A player may obtain distance information by using a device that measures distance
only. If, during a stipulated round, a player uses a distance-measuring device that is
designed to gauge or measure other conditions that might affect his play (e.g. gradient,
windspeed, temperature, etc.), the player is in breach of Rules of Golf (2014/15)
14-3, for which the penalty is disqualification, regardless of whether any such
additional function is actually used.
7. 8.
24
Entry on a start sheet commits a player/players to payment of the Entry Fee. If a
member is unable to play, he or she must organise a replacement. Any member
failing to do this will be reported to his or her club by the Honorary Competition
Secretary. The defaulting member(s) will be liable to pay the entry fee due and
their club will be liable to a fine corresponding to the entry fee, both to be paid
within one month of the date of the competition. The fine will be placed in a fund,
administered by the Honorary Treasurer, for Junior Golf Development. Failure to
pay the entry fee and fine will result in the member/members being banned to play
in any further competition and not be eligible to represent the Union for a period of
12 months from the date of failure to pay the appropriate fees.
Ties. In match play competitions, a match which ends all square should be played
off hole by hole until one side wins a hole. The play off should start on the hole
where the match began. In stroke play competitions, matching score cards shall be
used and ties shall be decided over the last eighteen, last nine, last six, last three and
last hole, with the exception of the Union Strokeplay Championship, which shall be
decided by sudden death play-off. If this method does not produce a winner, then
the tie shall be decided taking the last nine, last six, last three and last hole of the
first nine holes. (See Appendix 1 part C, rule 33-6 of the Decisions on the Rules of
Golf (2014-15).
9. Abandoned competitions. A competition will be considered complete if all the
competitors have completed at least half the scheduled holes. The competition will
then be scored over the number of holes all the competitors have completed. This will
be a condition of all competitions. Entry monies will be retained and prizes awarded.
If the competition cannot be declared complete, the following procedure will apply, viz
a)
The start time for the last completed returned card will be the cut-off point for the
competition.
b)
If less than 30% of the field have completed their rounds then the competition shall
be declared void, no prizes will be awarded and all players will be entitled to a
refund of entry fees.
c)
Where more than 30% of players have completed their rounds, all players with
cards issued up to the cut-off point will be deemed to have taken part in the competition and prizes will be awarded pro rata to the number of players on the start list.
d)
Players with cards issued after the cut-off point will be entitled to a full refund of
entry fees.
e)
Players with cards issued prior to the cut-off point will not be entitled to a refund if
they do not return their cards or do not complete their rounds for any reason.
f)
Trophies will not be awarded in the case of abandoned competitions.
g)
Payment to Clubs for use of the course will be made as follows:
Completed competition – Full amount
Less than 30% players completed – No Payment
More than 30% players completed – Pro rata to the number of players completing
the course.
10
Competitions played in conditions of poor visibility. In conditions of poor visibility,
the starter shall close the first tee if visibility is reduced to 200yds or greater if the
starter considers it unsafe for the players to tee off. All players on the course must
adopt the same criteria and cease play if they consider conditions are dangerous.
