There are some new and exciting changes coming to Oak Hills Women's Golf this year. Here are just a few of them:

NEW club rules.
1. Sand Traps: If your ball is in a trap and a rock is in the way of your swing, you may remove the rock. Also, if your ball is in an unraked footprint or divot, after consulting with your foursome, you may lift your ball, rake, and replace your ball without penalty.
2. Winter Rules: You may roll your ball over in the fairway 6", no closer to the hole. Also, you have the option to lift, clean and replace your ball in the fairway within 6", no closer to the hole.
3. Aerated Greens: When the greens are aerated, we will replace the tournament for that week (all 4 days) with a stroke play tournament and the stroke play tournament will be replaced by the tournament that was cancelled due to aerating the greens.
4. The drop area on #5 hole will be the area to the left of the hole in front of the two small trees. We will request that this area be clearly marked.

Pairing procedures are new and different this year:
1. Everyone must sign up on the tournament sheet as either single or with a partner (indicate who your partner is on the
sheet). The pairer will make every effort to keep partners together unless absolutely impossible.
2. If a player wants to join a tournament after the sign up deadline, she must call the pairer. The pairer will add a player
if there is available space and the tee time is still available.

Club Championship will be a two day stroke tournament on Tuesday, July 3lst and Wednesday, August 1st. The rain
date will be the following Tuesday or Wednesday,
1. All participants must have played in 5 tournaments prior to playing in the Club Championship.
2. Any player may play "up" to any flight.

New tournaments this year:
1. Shamble tournament replaces Red, White and Blue
2. Silent Partners tournament will replace Trouble
