League Play Etiquette - Please follow the 5 day League Play deadline. It is very difficult to formulate a playing field with last minute requests or changes. Also, please only call the League Chairs the day of the event if you have an emergency and cannot play. Please contact them between the hours of 9am - 5pm. Their phone numbers are personal phones and they have been receiving very early, very late and weekend calls. Use email for questions or concerns that are not an emergency. Lastly, many members are contacting the League Chairs because they do not remember if they paid. Please note your calendar when you sign up & pay (remember it is a 2-step process). With the growing number of members, we all need to be responsible for tracking our own payments.
Advice – According to USGA Rule 8.1, During a Stipulated Round (playing holes of the course in their correct sequence...), a player must not: a) give advice to anyone in the competition playing on the course other than his partner, or b) ask for advice from anyone other than his partner or either of their caddies.
Unless solicited, please DO NOT give advice. Each player needs to develop their own game and concentrate on what they feel they want to work on to become a better golfer. Too many tips can be overwhelming and confusing. Please play your game and let the members of your foursome play theirs. HOWEVER, many of us are still learning. If you want help or advice, please feel free to ask specific questions of your playing partners – they may be able to help!
Pick up After 10 - this suggestion was made to our members to help with the speed of play. If your group is slowing down the rest of the field, please be courteous and pick up after 10 strokes. Remember, if you do not finish a hole, mark your scorecard with an "X" before your score (for example, X10). If you have more than two "X's" for 9 holes on your card, you may not post that particular score for handicap purposes.
