RULES OF CONDUCT (For Parents and Contestants)

Our goal is for every contestant to compete in a relaxed, happy, and safe atmosphere. This can happen ONLY if contestants and parents alike have respect for their peers and adults.

Each player should expect the best emotional playing conditions in a calm and focused atmosphere.

We will not tolerate:

1 Outbursts of temper
2 Loud or demonstrative arguments or discussions
3 Verbal or physical abuse of any child
4 Any act that would humiliate or embarrass a contestant

Please take any arguments or discussions OFF the golf course and AWAY from the contestants as they compete.

Any violation of the above will mean PERMANENT SUSPENSION of all parties involved from all tournament courses for the duration of the tournament.

The signal for suspending play due to a dangerous situation will be a PROLONGED NOTE OF SIREN.

The signal to resume play will be TWO SHORTS NOTES OF SIREN REPEATED.

According to the USGA (App. 1-4) Suspension of Play Due to a Dangerous Situation: “When play is suspended by the Committee for a dangerous situation, if the players in a match or group are between the play of two holes, they shall not resume play until the Committee has ordered a resumption of play. If they are in the process of playing a hole, they shall discontinue play immediately and shall not thereafter resume play until the Committee has ordered a resumption of play. If a player fails to discontinue play immediately, he shall be disqualified unless circumstances warrant waiving such penalty as provided in Rule 33-7.

If lightning becomes a threat, or if the siren is sounded, TAKE SHELTER IMMEDIATELY – NOT under a tree! Find shelter or crouch down as low as possible. Do NOT spread eagle on the ground! Each course has a plan in place to get out to pick up as many people as possible in the case of extremely threatening weather.
