-
Eighteen holes should be completed in 4 hours and 20 minutes or less.

-
You are expected to stay up with the group ahead of you not the group behind you.
-
The first time the Course Ranger has to advise a group that they have fallen behind the designated Pace of Play will be a courtesy. There will be one warning only per nine holes. He will ask everyone to make every effort and take all possible action to get back on time as quickly as possible. The second time he has to advise the group that they have fallen behind the designated Pace of Play you will complete the hole being played; you will skip the next hole and the Course ranger will move you to the next tee. Any skipped holes will not be replayed. Those holes skipped will be considered halved. The Tournament Committee reserves the right to penalize an individual; a team or entire foursome for SLOW PLAY.
