REMINDER – AGM.
Members are reminded that the AGM of the members of Jamberoo Golf Club will be held in the upstairs auditorium of Club Jamberoo on Tuesday 23rd of August at 7.30 pm.
At this meeting the annual financial report will be presented to members by the auditor.
The results of the nominations for Directors will be confirmed and the President will present his report.
Drop Zone on the Ninth
“A drop zone has been created near the ‘footgolf’ hole for those balls coming to rest in the GUR.”
There is no mention of ‘compulsory’ in the rule and, like all GUR situations, the ball can be played where it lies if you wish or moved to the drop zone. The GUR is not fairway and so no preferred lie can be taken if you take the first option.
This ruling has been confirmed by Women’s Captain, Judi O’Brien, in her conditions for play in the upcoming Women’s Championship [see below].

- PLAYING HANDICAP APPLICABLE ON THE FIRST DAY OF PLAY WILL APPLY TO THE NETT SCORES FOR THE COMPLETE CHAMPIONSHIPS. Correct daily playing handicaps will be used for daily competitions.
- IN THE EVENT OF A TIE FOR CLUB (A GRADE) CHAMPION, A SUDDEN DEATH PLAY-OFF WILL OCCUR OVER HOLES 1 AND 18 UNTIL A RESULT IS ACHIEVED. If a player returns a score that may qualify for play-off, they should remain in the clubhouse or surrounds and if cannot be recalled at a later time, they shall have been deemed to have waived their rights to play in the play-off. All other events other than “Club Champion” will be decided by countback.
- MOTORISED TRANSPORT IS PERMITTED. MOBILE PHONES ARE ALLOWED ON THE COURSE BUT MUST BE SWITCHED OFF EXCEPT FOR AN EMERGENCY OUTGOING CALL. Any audible emission and/or unauthorised use (including checking and sending messages) of a mobile phone during play is a serious breach of etiquette. An initial warning would be applied. If the phone is subsequently used, this could result in DISQUALIFICATION. (RULE 33-7).
- PLAYERS SHALL START AT THE TIME LAID DOWN BY THE COMMITTEE. If a player arrives at the starting point, ready to play, within 5 minutes after her starting time, in the absence of circumstances which warrant waiving the penalty of disqualification, a penalty of 2 strokes at the first hole shall be given. (See Rule 5.3a)
- Coronavirus rules apply as at the time of play. If rules change during the course of playing the championships, the applicable rules apply. Please make yourself aware of the rules as posted outside the clubhouse.
