Tournament Rules

DOUBLE PAR PICK-UP RULE
You must pick up your ball and move onto the next hole once you have shot two times the par for that hole or equivalent to X for the hole according to your handicap.
PROVISIONAL BALL
If, after playing a shot, you think your ball may be lost outside a water hazard or out of bounds you should play a provisional ball. You must state that it is a provisional ball and play it before you go forward to search for the original ball.

WORK TOGETHER & BE CAREFUL
Do your best to watch the entire flight and have as many of your playing partners as possible helping search for a lost ball. The more eyes, the better.

4. NEWLY PLANTED TREES AND NEWLY SEEDED AREAS.
