sign up deadlines are listed on the sign up sheet.
After the deadline, call the golf professional assigned to the league.
Pairings are done on Monday afternoons.
For
cancellations after these deadlines,
call the Tellico Village course directly.
Other General Information
Appropriate
attire should be worn on the golf course. The
current dress code for Tellico Village courses is posted in the Pro Shops.
Plan to arrive at least 30 minutes prior to your scheduled tee time or
shotgun start. Announcements will
be made PROMPTLY at 8:15 a.m. after which we will proceed to our starting tees
for an 8:30 a.m. shotgun start.
RAIN
POLICY
On
questionable weather days, we will NOT cancel play unless the course is closed.
If you are signed up to play and do not wish to play, please call the Pro
Shop of the Tellico Village course where we are scheduled to play to cancel.
If a Team event is scheduled for that day and an insufficient number of
players show up, we will revert to individual stroke play.
Prize payout will be determined based on the number of players
participating. Rain checks will be
issued if it rains after play has begun.
GOLF
ETIQUETTE
·
Maintain pace of play.
Every effort should be made to play at the same pace as the group in
front of you. However, a ball being
struck can be heard from a considerable distance and a ball landing too close
to the group in front of you is a distraction.
Hitting when the group is too close is dangerous and discourteous.
- When
on the putting green, do not stand within the peripheral vision of the
player who is putting. Never
stand within the area that would be considered the line of sight of the
player putting. Do not stand on
their “line” to the hole. Use
common sense and stand where they cannot see you while they putt.
·
Repair your ball mark (and one other) before leaving the
green.
·
Do not move, talk, or stand in the line of sight of a player
making a stroke anywhere on the course.
- On
the fairway, use the sand provided to fill your divot and any others close
by.
·
When leaving a bunker, use the rake to carefully fill and
smooth holes and footprints. Rake
should be placed parallel to the fairway and away from the sides of the bunker.
HANDICAPS
The
USGA’s Equitable Stroke Control (ESC) sets a maximum number that a player can
post on any hole depending on the player’s course handicap. Your score must be adjusted accordingly, prior to posting for
handicap purposes.
TVLGA
– 18 members will play to a maximum course handicap of 36 in all
League events.

Most
Improved Golfer Award
To
be considered for the “Most Improved Golfer Award”, a player must have
participated in the League from the start of the season with an established
handicap.
SCORING
Each
player is responsible for turning in a completed score card (as determined by the Professional Staff) after EVERY
round of golf, both at home and away.
Post
scores in all forms of play…stroke play and even team competitions in which
you are requested to pick up. If
a player does not finish a hole or is conceded a stroke, the player shall record
their MOST LIKELY SCORE. MOST
LIKELY SCORE is the number of strokes already taken plus the estimated number of
strokes needed to complete the hole. All
tournament scores, home
and away
need to be posted as tournament scores.
You
are to post your score when you play at least 13 holes of an 18-hole round or at
least 7 holes of a 9-hole round. On
the holes you did not play, record a par plus any handicap strokes you would
have received for that hole.
GOLF
RULES
·
Except for “Local Rules” and “League Rules” (if any),
“USGA Rules
of Golf” and “Decisions on the Rules of Golf” will apply.
·
The Pro Shop will post a notice advising golfers when and
which Local Rules are in effect. If
“Winter Rules” or “Preferred Lies” are in effect, a golfer may, without
penalty, improve her lie by one club length when on the fairway or in the rough
(however, after the one club length improvement, the ball must remain in the
rough), no closer to the hole. Otherwise,
play the ball as it lies in the fairway, in the rough or in a hazard.
UNDER USGA RULES ANY TIME A BALL IS MOVED, A 1-STROKE PENALTY MUST BE
TAKEN.
- A
player may declare a ball UNPLAYABLE at any place on the course except when
the ball is in a water hazard. If
a ball is declared unplayable, the player must, under penalty of one stroke:
- Play
a ball as nearly as possible at the spot from which the original ball was
last played.
- Drop
a ball within two club-lengths of the spot where the ball lay, but not
nearer the hole.
- Drop
a ball behind the point where the ball lay, keeping that point directly
between the hole and the spot on which the ball is dropped, with no limit
to how far behind that point the ball may be dropped.
- If
the unplayable ball is in a bunker, she may proceed under any of the three
options listed above. However,
if she elects Options 2 or 3, the ball must be dropped in the bunker.
- Ground
under repair (GUR) will be marked with a white line.
A free drop may be taken, one club length from the nearest point of
relief, no closer to the hole.
§
Points are given for Low Putts on Pin Days only.
For this reason, on those days, all putts must be holed.
- OUT
OF BOUNDS:
Out of Bounds are marked by white stakes (in some cases a
white line may be used). The
stakes are NOT considered obstructions and are deemed to be
fixed. They may NOT
be removed when making a stroke. If
you suspect your ball is out of bounds, or lost outside a water hazard, to
save time, play a PROVISIONAL ball.
You must declare that you are playing a provisional ball and identify
it to your fellow competitors. A
player may continue to hit the provisional ball until she reaches the spot
where the original ball was lost. If, after a brief search, the original ball is found and
is in play, she may abandon the provisional ball and hit the original ball
as it lies without penalty. The
penalty for an out of bounds ball or lost ball is stroke and distance.
- HAZARDS: Lateral water hazards
are defined by red stakes and red lines. Water hazards are defined by yellow stakes and yellow
lines. Both red and yellow
stakes may be removed if they interfere in making a stroke.
Grounding a club when addressing a ball in a hazard is a 1 stroke
penalty. This also applies to
bunkers.
- DISPUTES: In stroke play, if a
dispute arises and cannot be resolved on the course within a reasonable
time, a player may choose to play a second ball. The player must announce to her
fellow competitors her intention to do so and
declare with which ball she will score, if
the rules permit. Both balls
are to be holed out. Both
scores will be kept on the scorecard. When
the player reaches the clubhouse, a Pro will be consulted and a ruling will
be made.
§
DROP ZONES:
There will be marked drop zones in appropriate areas on all courses.
We will play according to local rules as posted in the clubhouses.
STANDING
RULES
The
following standing rules are effective January 2007:
1. The League Championship, which is a two-day league tournament, must
have provisions for a
rain date in order to satisfy the requirements for two rounds of golf.
2. Cell phones should be turned off when on the golf course, and should
only be used in
emergency situations.

LEAGUE
TOURNAMENTS AND EXTRA EVENTS
“THE GAME OF GOLF CONSISTS IN PLAYING A BALL FROM THE TEEING
GROUND AND INTO THE HOLE
BY A STROKE
OR SUCCESSIVE STROKES IN
ACCORDANCE WITH THE RULES.”
MATCH PLAY:
In match play the game is played by holes.
Unless otherwise provided in the Rules,
a hole is won by the side
which holes its
ball in fewer strokes.
In a handicap match the lower net score wins.
The reckoning of holes is kept by the terms: so many “holes up” or
“all square,” and so many “to play.”

C-O-D
(CARTS-OPPOSITES-DRIVERS): 2
best ball scores are needed for each hole with rotating partners comprising
those scores. For the first 6
holes, the partners are two golfers in each cart (Carts).
The best net score in each cart is recorded.
On the next 6 holes, the partners are the driver of one cart and the
passenger of the other cart (Opposites). The best net score is recorded for each pair.
The last 6 holes, the partners are the two passengers and the two drivers
(Drivers).
The best net score from each pair is recorded.
Criss
Cross: The team gets to compare corresponding holes
on their scorecard and choose the lower of two scores, resulting in a 9-hole
total score. Front 9 holes are
paired up with the corresponding back 9 holes. In other words, think of No.1 and No. 10 as a pair, No.2 and
No. 11 as a pair, No. 3 and No. 12 as a pair, and so on up to No. 9 and No.18.
Following the round, compare the best two net scores you recorded on No.
1 and No. 10 and circle the lower of the two (in relation to par).
For example, a net birdie is a -1; a net bogey is a +1.
Compare No. 2 and No. 11 and circle the lower of the two and so on
through No. 9 and No. 18.
Flag
Day:
Each player will be given a small flag, with her
name and handicap, plus par written on it.
When the player has used that number of strokes, the flag is planted
where the ball lies. For example:
Player A with a course Handicap of 14 playing a par-72 course would be
allowed 86 strokes. Extra holes may be necessary.
The players who plant their flags the farthest on the course are the
winners.
Least
Favorites: On every
course there are a few holes that give every golfer trouble.
These are the ones where no matter how many times you play the course,
you can never quite tame those holes. Before
teeing off, pick your least favorite par 3, par 4, and par 5.
You must still play the
holes, but you do not have to add those scores to your total.
You will have an 18-hole score for posting but only a 15-hole score for
the event.
