Lady’s
Island Women's Golf Association
General Information
Handicaps
All competitive golf events
depend on the USGA handicap system to assure that each player has a fair
chance. For the system to work, your handicap must be current and
accurate. This means that you
MUST
record your adjusted score after every 18-hole round.
Tuesday tournament events will be entered by the Handicap Chairman.
Meetings
Regular
luncheon and business meetings are usually held on the third Tuesday
of each month after morning play. Reservation sheets for the luncheons
are posted. Please sign up.
Membership
A
person must be a member of Lady’s Island C.C. and have an established
handicap of 40 (index 35.8) or less-in order to join the
Women’s Golf Association. Dues are paid by July 1 of each year.
As a member of the Association you are eligible to belong to the
following groups and take part in their activities:
Women's
South Carolina Golf Association
See Handicap Chairman. Membership in WSCGA is
included in our dues.
Women's
Carolinas Golf Association
Women's
Golf Association of Beaufort County
Must have an index of 20.1 or less to apply to Association for
Membership.

Six Association

bulletin board,
Ringers
and Birdies
There
are three Ringer Tournaments of four months each during the year.
Birdies and Ringers are recorded only for Tuesday
tournaments. Ringer winners are awarded every four months.
Birdies are awarded every month.
Tournaments
Sign-up sheets are in the Ladies Locker Room and remain there until
Sunday. NO MEMBER SHOULD SIGN
UP ANOTHER MEMBER WITHOUT THAT PERSON’S PERMISSION. IN
ADDITION, WHEN IT IS NOT “TEAMS BY COMMITTEE”, NO ONE SHOULD ERASE
AND MOVE A PERSON FROM ONE 4-SOME TO ANOTHER.
For most events an entrance fee of $3 is given to Pro
Shop prior to play. For tournament play a maximum of 40 handicap is
allowed.
Cancellations
If
you must cancel, do it as soon as possible. If the sign-up sheet has
been picked up, call the Quarterly Tournament Chairman, IMMEDIATELY.
On the day of play, call the Pro Shop. Unless the tournament is
cancelled for bad weather or other reasons, you are expected to be there
and on your starting hole at the time stated. Rain dates are provided
for major tournaments. Be advised that no prizes are awarded in any
event where fewer than EIGHT
players enter the tournament.
Slow
Play
No
one thinks she is a slow player, but, perhaps, those behind are faster.
If others are obviously waiting, please speed up play or let them
through if your team has gotten into trouble or if there is an open hole
ahead. Twosomes going off in the midst of a field of foursomes have to
take their chances.
Hole-In-One
While
playing on the Pines or Player courses, if a hole-in-one is made by a
WGA member, she is entitled to a $50.00 check from the treasury. This
must be witnessed by one other person and 18 holes of golf must be
played. If too much money is paid out during the course of the year, the
WGA may request additional monies from members.
Out-of-Bounds
All
white property stakes and white homeowner boundary markers should be
considered out-of-bounds.
ALL OTHER USGA RULES
APPLY.
