Rules and Handicapping

The game of golf has universal appeal as a game that can be played:

  • on your own, or in groups,
  • by the young, and by the old
  • by the quite proficient, and by the raw beginner
  • with a referee, or without one
  • at world-renowned venues, or at your local club.

.It is one of very few sports that can be played in a competition format on this basis. Two key systems facilitate the playing of the game under these many and varied perameters - the Rules of Golf, and the Handicapping System. Click on the icons below to learn more.
