Etiquette & Rules at Port Lincoln Golf Club

We want all of our members to enjoy their golfing experience at our club. The R&A and USGA rules of golf apply to all competitions and our local rules can be found on our scorecards or in the match area of the clubhouse.

We ask all of our members and visitors to be respectful of fellow golfers and workers and to abide by our general course care expectations by:

• Repairing your divots and pitch marks (make sure you carry a sand bucket at all times)

• Raking bunkers after playing from them (remember to smooth the face and rake the base)

• Avoiding wet areas or obvious traffic affected areas

• Carts and motorbikes should stay to paths where possible and stay at least 5 metres away from greens

• No more than 2 practice balls at anytime when practicing.

• Greenkeepers have right of way (please do not hit up on them without first being called to do so)

• Playing groups of no more than 4

• Slow groups should always allow quicker groups or players through
