A ball lying near a staked tree which interferes with the playing of the stroke, MUST be lifted and dropped in accordance with Rule 16.1f. (Immovable Obstruction).

6. Fixed Sprinkler Heads

All fixed sprinkler heads are immovable obstructions and relief from interference by them may be obtained under Rule 16.1b.

7. Health and Safety

Green staff have priority on the course. If in range of your shot, please wait until either they are clear or are aware of your intention to play.

8. Suspension of Play

Suspension of play for a dangerous situation e.g. lightning may be signalled by a prolonged blast of an air horn.

At such time all players on the course MUST discontinue play immediately and return to the Clubhouse. Resumption of play may be signalled by a further prolonged blast of the air horn. Members must use their own judgement and, if they consider conditions dangerous, leave the course.
