I must bring to your attention Rule 6-7 Undue Delay; Slow play.
There are provisions for penalties to be applied if you are guilty of this offence.
Your Committee do not want to impose Penalties but if SLOW PLAY persists we will have no other option.
If you have lost a fairway you are guilty - you MUST call through or get on your bike and peddle faster.
Rule 6-7 allows for many options on each offence. Please DO NOT put your committee in the position where we must take action. Be aware of your position in the field and if you cannot keep up - CALL THROUGH.
Play the Ball as it lies
Play the course as you find it
And if you can't do either,
do what is fair
But to do what is fair,
you need to know the Rules of Golf.
Pam Barker - Lady Captain
