            Foursomes, shots are conceded. Please see Regulations and Conditions attached for extra detail.
   A player’s current handicap will determine her eligibility to compete in a team. A Player may compete in a team

the scorecards.
 For National and District finals this exchange will be done 45 minutes before the start of

the 1st match.

Team Managers - Whilst the match is in progress, the Team Manager cannot be
either a Player or a caddy. If no else is available from a club to fulfil this role, then the
team will not have a team manager for the duration of the match.
 The one person who is able to give advice to the team must be easily identifiable. When
ILGU Officials on duty an identity label will be provided. Team Managers must NOT walk
on the green.

Transportation Policy - Please refer to the regulations on the Transportation Policy
(ILGU Handbook 2018, Policy Documents pages 39-41. Golf Buggies will be used by ILGU
Officials. A pre-approved player or caddy who produces a current cert issued by ILGU

contact the tournament committee to discuss their options. Otherwise team managers
and spectators may NOT use a buggy on the course during the Munster District Inter-
Club Match Play.

Rule Book - Advise your players to carry a Rule Book at all times on the course.

Local Rules - Supply copies of any Local Rules that are not on the card to all of your
players.

Pace of Play is very important. If there is no Rules Official on duty, agree with the
opposing Team Manager that if play is slow, you will both move your players on. Each
Player is responsible for playing without undue delay (R&A Rule 6-7). See Pace of Play
Policy ILGU Handbook 2018 page 41 - 42.

place at the hosting club for all of your matches.

the regulations as set down by the R and A.

Caddies - When permitted by the regulations, a player may be assisted by a caddy.
Note: For ILGU Girl's competitions refer to the conditions in the handbook.

Tee Times - Ensure that teams tee off promptly by asking them to be at the 1st tee box
10 minutes prior to their match time. The Team Manager should agree to start their
matches in line with the scheduled time if there is no Official on duty.

Advice for Team Managers in extreme Weather Conditions
Where the extreme weather creates a safety issue, and there is no ILGU Official on duty,
the two Team Managers may at any time agree to discontinue a match. This course of
action should only be taken as a last resort and in general a match should be finished if at
all possible.
Team Managers must be aware that the SAME TEAM MUST be fielded on the
resumption of the match. The only exception - any player who has not teed off on the 1st
hole, can be replaced on resumption of play.
When a decision is taken to discontinue a match, the two Team Managers must -
     • Ensure that the position of the balls and state of the match is clearly agreed.
   • Arrange with the host club for course time to complete the match.
   • Immediately inform Chair of Tournaments Munster.
   •
Spectators Guidelines: The ILGU welcomes spectators to all its events. To ensure that
all players feel comfortable on the course and enjoy their game the following guidelines
should be observed:
        • Walk in rough and maintain a distance of a least 25 yards from players.
       • Acknowledge good shots by all players equally.
       • Do not give advice or interact with players or caddies.
       • Do not give Rulings or call Penalties on players.
       • Do not disturb the play of others by moving or making noise.
       • Do not move a player’s bag as this may be construed as caddying.

Reporting Match Results - The manager of the winning team must text the result to
the ILGU executive named on the top right of the draw sheet as soon as the match has
ended. Please note the starting time of the first match and the finish time for
the last match. You are asked to text this information with the result. Please
remember to include your club and team category when sending text. A confirmation of
receipt will be sent.

Finally, Good Luck to all participating clubs.
