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.
