Any match playing the whole round is entitled to pass another playing a shorter round. If a match fails to keep its place on the course and loses more than one clear hole on the players in front, it should allow the match behind to pass.

Please help us to keep the course enjoyable and replace divots, repairing pitch marks on greens and smoothing over holes and footprints in the bunkers.

Players are reminded to consult the Notice Boards prior to play and comply with any Temporary Local Rules which may be in force at any given time.
