What Are The "Terms of Competition"

Modified on Wed, 25 Oct, 2023 at 3:40 PM

Terms of any golf competition are complied, administered and managed by event organisers/committees.


These terms clarify specific detail and criteria for their events. Headings include: Entry Process, Format of Play, Resolution of Ties, Handicap Limits, Photo Policy, Residence or membership status , Entry Fee, Registration Process, Tees Used, Terms for Exceptional Circumstances such as severe weather, plus a lot more.


Should you have any queries or questions about a competition you should ask the organiser for a copy of the "Terms of Competition". Alternatively, example "Terms of Competition" can be found via these links:
