Pace of Play
Published on 7th July 2022 in UncategorizedMembers,
The YGC Match and General Committees, in conjunction with YPGC management, have been taking steps to improve round times with the aim of increasing everyone’s enjoyment. These have included a trial of 10 minute tee intervals, two tee starts, and reminders and tips being sent to players who have been identified as needing improvement.
These measures have seen dramatic improvements in round times, with most groups completing their rounds in under 4¼ hours. Well done, and thank you all for your efforts thus far.
The newly developed policy, Local Rule 5G ‘Pace of Play’, is scheduled to commence on 1 August 2022.
Local Rule 5G, with time-saving hints and tips, will be published early next week to enable members time to familiarise themselves with the key principles and finer details, and enable any questions to be answered prior to it coming into effect.
We appreciate the endeavour that has been shown by all members toward improving pace of play and the significant improvement in round ties that has resulted.
Keep up the great work,
YGC Match Committee
