2017 Poppy Ridge Rule Sheet
June 24, 2017
Welcome to beautiful Poppy Ridge. We will play using USGA Rules, Poppy Ridge Local Rules and the Palo Alto Golf Club Local Rules. You will be playing at 100% of your June 15 Course Handicap.
We will be playing Zinfandel & Merlot.
The format is a Modified Stableford. Plus is good and minus is bad. There are 2 flights, both playing from the White tees. Please record the Gross score for each hole. The computer will compute the Stableford points for each player. Please have your marker and your signatures on your card before you turn it in to me in the restaurant. If there are questions on the rules, please be sure to talk to me or a member of the Tournament Committee before signing and returning your card. If you have reached net double bogey, please pick up to help the pace of play.
Check in at the Golf Shop at least 30 minutes prior to your tee time.
You must show your NCGA card at sign-in.
Cell phones are not allowed on the golf course.
No tee shirts, tank tops or denim jeans. Men must wear shirts with collars and sleeves. Shorts must have an inseam of at least 4 inches.
Non-metal spikes are required. Ceramic spikes are strongly discouraged.
Pace of play is fifteen (15) minutes per hole. Any foursome taking longer will be considered out of position and may be asked to pick up and move to the appropriate hole.
No outside merchandise or food and beverage may be brought to, distributed or sold at Poppy Ridge.
