Swindle Rules
- Prepared by Messrs: Kiddle, Morris, Thorpe
& Wood. Jan 2007
Players must declare their intention
to participate in the Team and/or Singles events before starting their
round.
Players participating in the Team
and/or Singles events must pay the relevant fees - no exceptions.
Fees shall be paid prior to commencement
of play.
A Team is defined as 2, 3 or 4 players.
No gimmes - as per competition rules.
If a ball is lost (not in water)
a ball may be dropped as close as possible (by agreement with other
Team players) to where the original ball was lost at a cost of a two
stroke penalty.
A player who has previously declared
his intention to play in the Team and/or Singles events and who fails
to complete the round must declare his Stableford score for holes
played.
A Team score is the average of the
Team players' Stableford scores.
If play is abandoned by ALL Teams,
all competitions are void and all fees are refunded.
Players arriving late may declare
participation in the Singles event, and by agreement with their Team,
may also participate in the Team event provided that their Stableford
score only counts from the first hole played i.e. they may not play
any holes previously missed.
