RULES OF PLAY
1.1 Scramble Format
All four members of the team shall hit one tee shot
on every hole. The team then selects one tee shot and continues play
from that point. This procedure is repeated until the ball is holed out.
1.2 Three Tee Shot Requirement
Each player's tee shot must be used at least three times during the
18-hole competition.
1.3 Where to Play From
Shots through the Green Each team member must play his/her
shot from within one club length of the selected shot (except
when on the putting green). However, the ball may not be placed closer
to the hole. In addition, if the selected shot was in the fairway, each
member of the team must place his/her ball in the fairway to play the
next shot. Likewise, if the selected shot was in the rough, bunker,
water hazard, fringe, etc., each member of the team must place a ball
in, and play from, respectively, the rough, bunker, water hazard, fringe,
etc. In every instance each team member may place the ball. In other
words, all balls are played "up" or under "Winter Rules". Team members
may rake bunkers between shots.
1.4
Shots on the Putting Green Once the team's ball has reached the
putting green, the ball should be marked and another spot should be
marked approximately 6 inches to the side, no nearer to the hole.
This will allow the team to mark the ball so that all players
can putt from the same spot without being disturbed by the ball marker.
Once a ball is holed out, play is completed for that hole. Therefore,
it is recommended that players not putt out until all players have
attempted the putt from the selected position. On the green,
players may stand behind a teammate to help
determine the line.
