Golf

Welcome to MHR Golf 

No prior experience is necessary.

Team and individual rounds of golf take place on a weekly basis through Southside Catholic Conference. The “season” consists of four weeks of ‘tournament’ rounds (9 holes) and a final Championship round. Golf rounds will be played on the following dates:

Dates TBD

Players must play in 3 of the 4 weekly tournaments in order to qualify for the Championship Week.  The first four rounds will serve as qualifying for the Championships. The best three scores will serve as a player’s qualifying score. The top 4 boys and top 4 girls from MHR will play for the League Team Championship.

 

Day of Play Rules:

  • Dress Code:Golf attire including collared shirt, shorts/skirt/pants, socks and golf/gym shoes.
  • Players must have their own clubs, balls, tees, ball markers and divot repair tool in order to play.
  • Goal is to finish 9 holes in 2.5 hours or less
  • Players keep score for a competitor in their group
  • Circle 9 for scoring – once you hit 9, you pick up ball and move to next hole to keep up the pace of play
  • Hazards: All water and out of bounds will be played as lateral hazards.  Drop ball and add one stroke for the penalty.
  • Lost Balls:  This is played as a 1 stroke penalty but no loss of distance.  Drop a ball close to where you thought your ball was and continue play.

Because each week is a tournament competition, this is not to be considered an instructional league.
