| Please

can lead to disqualification |

| 2 |

the Competition Book for details of individual Competitions - Are
you eligible to play? |
| 3 |
Enter
your name in Competition Book and enter the monies payable in the
competition Box BEFORE you play or will be disqualified from the

handicap. |

Competitors
must play with other Lady Members. Friday Players may mark the
cards for Alternative Day Players (Saturday Players) by permission
of the Committee but may not compete on that day unless the
Committee has granted her permission to do so. |

To
be eligible to enter some of the Trophy Competitions, a player
must have at least 4 Qualifying Competition Score Cards returned
during the previous 12 months since the Trophy Competition
you are entering was last played. The 4 Qualifying Scores may
be played on either Home or Away courses. In the event of a Lady
Member completing 17 holes but being unable to clear the Water
Hazard on the 18th after a minimum of THREE attempts, the card
will count towards the 4 Cards required for entry into the Ladies'
Trophy Competitions for the following year. However these
incomplete cards will not be eligible for the LGU or CONGU
Qualifying Competitions. Please write on your cards by the 18th
hole - '3 tries'. |
| a) |
Exemption
from the 'Trophy Eligibility' Rule applies to all Ladies during
their first season with Southsea Golf Club but comes into effect
from 1st February after their joining date. |
| b) |
If
Exceptional Circumstances have prevented a Member from returning 4
Qualifying Cards as above, that member may, at the Committee's
discretion, be eligible to compete in Trophy Competitions. Every
case will be treated on its own merits. |
| c) |
Exceptional
Circumstances will include, representing the Club elsewhere,
serious illness, course closure etc. |

There
are 12 Trophy Competitions that require 4 Qualifying Scores
to be done as mentioned above (list up in Ladies' Room). However,
if you have not done the 4 Qualifying Scores required, for
whatever reason, there are approximately 40 other Competitions
that can be entered. |
| 7 |
All
players must have in their possession a Valid Season Ticket or Day
Ticket for the course. Failure to do so will not only result in
disqualification from the Competition but will also result in
suspension from future Competitions for a period to be decided by
the Committee. |
