            Figures shown are for comparability purposes; only compare fuel consumption and CO2 figures with other vehicles tested
            to the same technical procedures. These figures may not reflect real life driving results, which will depend upon a number
            of factors including the accessories fitted (post-registration), variations in weather, driving styles and vehicle load. There
            is a new test used for fuel consumption and CO2 figures (known as WLTP). The CO2 figures shown however, are based on
            a calculation designed to be equivalent to the outgoing (NEDC) test cycle and will be used to calculate vehicle tax on first
            registration. For more information, please see www.volkswagen.co.uk/owners/wltp or consult your retailer. Data correct
            at 12/2018. Figures quoted are for a range of configurations and are subject to change due to ongoing approvals/changes.
            Please consult your retailer for further information. Official fuel consumption figures for the Volkswagen model range in
            mpg (litres/100km): combined 31.4 (9.0) – 58.9 (4.8). Combined CO2 emissions 95 – 173 g/km.

              pressed down, except on the tees where these should be smoothed and reseeded using the sand
              provided. In the growing season, divot bags are available beside both the first and tenth tees:
              please take at least one bag per round and repair any unfilled divots you see.
           • Pitch-marks: These should be repaired using a pitch-mark repairer. These can be purchased from
              the Academy or Golf Lodge prior to the commencement of play.
           • Lost Balls: Players searching for a ball should signal the players behind them to pass as soon as it
              becomes apparent that the ball will not easily be found and should not search for three minutes
              before doing so. Players shall avoid slow play at all times.
           • Speed of Play: Slow play is frustrating for everyone, so players are asked always to keep up with
              the group in front of them. If a group loses more than one hole in front and the group behind is
              close, then they must be invited to play through.
           • Halfway House: The Rules of Golf are strict about continuity of play without undue delay so,
              especially in competitions, if you stop at the Halfway House please make every effort to move to
              the tenth tee as quickly as possible.
           • Greenkeeping staff: The greenkeepers have priority on the course. Please respect them while they
              are doing their work and they will endeavour, if at all possible, not to disrupt a game. Please show

the same consideration to them as would be shown to other golfers using the course at the same
             time.
           • Juniors: Under-12s must always be accompanied by an adult while on the golf course.
           • Branston Golf Club operates a maximum 4 ball policy on both the Championship and Eagle
             course. The only exceptions are for the Captains Drive in and farewell competitions dependant on
             the number of player entries.

                                       TEE TIME BOOKING PROCEDURES
              The Club’s aim is to maximise the number of tee times available and give members the best
              opportunity possible of getting his or her preferred tee time.

           • The name and membership number of each individual must be stated when booking. Any use of
             a false name will lead to immediate suspension of membership for an indefinite period.
           • The Club reserves the right to make up games into fourball matches and single players hold no
             booking rights unless joining a two ball or three ball match that is already booked, or unless there
             are no part-booked time slots available: in such cases a singles list will be compiled by the Golf
             Lodge staff to fill slots that become available.
           • Members may book up to 14 days in advance. The booking sheet for the date 14 days ahead will
             be released when the Golf Lodge opens every morning.
           • Booking is restricted to one tee time slot for four named players. Members’ guests qualify for a
             reduced rate and the appropriate green fee must be paid prior to playing. If the Golf Lodge is
             closed, members should report to Reception or the Academy to pay the appropriate fee before
             playing. The Member will be liable to pay the green fee for any guest not honouring a pre-booked
             tee time.
           • All members are required to display their relevant bag tag when playing either of the courses.
             Their guests will also be given a registration card to display on their bag upon payment of the
             relevant green fee.

• Cancellation of bookings can be made at any time of the day or night (there is an answering
             machine in the Golf Lodge) as long as the cancellation is made at least two hours before the tee
             time. Tel 01283 528320.
           • Any member failing to honour a pre-booked tee time will be reminded by letter that they
             are expected to make a cancellation. Any repeat of this within twelve months will require an
             explanation in writing to the Golf Manager. Failure to give such written explanation for absence
             will result in the member’s booking privileges being withdrawn for one month.
           • Inclement weather will not normally be considered a reason for non-arrival, unless the course
             is closed. (So even if it is pouring down with rain, players who do not intend playing must still
             phone to cancel their tee time).
           • Every member must inform the Golf Lodge of their arrival before teeing-off and will be
             expected to register at least ten minutes before their tee time.
                               No shows & Non-return of scorecards in competitions

           • Any member who is a “No Show” for a Competition or fails to hand in a scorecard after
             completing their rounds will then be banned by the Committees for the next three eligible
             qualifying competitions ‘if no reasonable justification can be given’.

                HOW TO ENTER A CLUB COMPETITION – please Note Handicap Restrictions
           You must hold a bona fide CONGU handicap and be a golf member of the Championship course
           before you may enter any competition on this course. All such members may enter Monthly
           Stableford or Max Score competitions ONLY, up to a maximum handicap of 54 for both
           ladies & gents.
           However, ALL other competitions on the Championship course are only open to gents with a
           Maximum handicap of 35 & ladies with a maximum handicap of 40 unless otherwise stated.

           Detailed information on all competitions can be found on the golf notice boards in both locker
           rooms.

           Medal, Stableford or Max Score competitions: Book a tee time and pay your entry fee at the Golf
           Lodge before you play (ladies should pay in their locker room). Junior boys whose handicaps exceed
           35 & girls whose handicaps exceed 40 are not allowed to play in Monthly Medals but may play in
           Monthly Stableford or Max score competitions.

           Majors: To be entered into the draw, write your name on the sheets in the locker rooms. Start times
           are published 16 days before the competition, both on the golf noticeboard in the Locker Rooms

Branston Fixture Diary 19.indd 34                                                                          05/02/2019 09:03
and on the Master Scoreboard website. For further details on Master Scoreboard, and to obtain a
           password, please ask at the Golf Lodge or call 01283 528320.
           Knockouts (gents): Write your name (and the name of your playing partner/s, if applicable),
           telephone number, membership number on the outside of an envelope containing your entry fee and
           post in the red letterbox in the Gents’ locker room before the stipulated closing date. Late entries
           cannot be accepted and details of the draws and deadlines for each round of the competition will be
           posted on the golf noticeboard in the Locker Room and on the Master Scoreboard website.
           Juniors are required to hold a CONGU handicap (boys max 35/girls max 40) to be eligible to win
           a Junior Major Competition. However, if their handicaps are above these limits, they will still be
           welcome to take part in a separate competition.

           Returning Scorecards and Entering Scores into the Computer

           The Rules of Golf state (Rule 3.3b (1)):
           a. Markers Responsibility: Entering & Certifying Hole Scores on Scorecard.
              After each hole during the round, the marker should confirm the score with the competitor and
              record it. On completion of the round the marker must sign the scorecard and hand it to the
              competitor. If more than one marker records the scores, each must sign for the part for which he
              is responsible.
           b. Signing and Returning Score Card (Rule 3.3b (2))
              After completion of the round, the competitor should check his score for each hole and settle any
              doubtful points with the Committee. He must ensure that the marker or markers have signed the
              scorecard, sign the scorecard himself and return it to the Committee as soon as possible. In our
              case, “returning it to the Committee” means entering the scores into the Computer and then (for
              gents) posting the card into the slot in the top of Computer Room Cupboard in the Computer
              Room.
              For ladies put your completed scorecards in the silver box on the right-hand wall in the Computer
              Room.

              Cards that are not returned when closing the competition has an impact on the Competition
              Standard Scratch calculation for each competition and therefore impacts on other members’
              handicaps.
              Any member who fails to return a scorecard after completing their competition rounds will then
              be banned by the Committees for the next three eligible qualifying competitions ‘if reasonable
              justification cannot be given’.

           • Returns of Supplementary Scores may be subject to action under Clause 23 B if malpractice is
             suspected.

           • For supplementary scores returned by players at their away club players must:
             o Register their intention to enter a supplementary score in line with the away club’s protocol
             o Return the card to the away club
             o Ensure score is returned to home club by taking a duplicate copy of that card

                                            COMPETITION HANDICAPS
              A player needs to enter a total of three cards from either qualifying competitions or by returning
              supplementary cards (or a combination of both) in every year, commencing January 1st, 2019
              to maintain a competition handicap; failure to do so will result in the player having a non-
              competition handicap.

              In order to regain a competition handicap, a player must return either three qualifying scorecards
              or three supplementary scorecards or a combination of the two during the previous 12 months.
              Nil returns do not count.

              A player with a non-competition handicap may enter and play in all club competitions provided
              they are within the handicap boundary limit for those competitions, with the exception of the
              Club Championships and the Knockout Competitions but will not be eligible to win any vouchers
              or trophies.

                                 RETURN OF NON-QUALIFYING AWAY SCORES
           Following information received from England Golf in January 2017, it is a requirement for ALL
           players to report back to the Handicap Committee ALL scores in non-qualifying competitions played
           AWAY from the player’s home club.

           ALL such individual scores and/or Team results must be returned in all Singles, Am-Am and 4BBB
           with the exception of Texas Scrambles, Foursomes and Greensome competitions, or casual social
           rounds.

           We have set up blank forms for individuals to label with their own name & report their own scores
           or team result(s) throughout the year. Do not leave these until the end of the year to fill in.

           If you fill a complete sheet up, please start and label with your name another blank continuation
           sheet.

           We have set up 3 files – one for the gents & juniors in the Computer room, one for the ladies on
           the desk in the Ladies locker room & one at the Academy for Eagle Course members. These have
           alphabetical dividers (to be filed by surname) with the blank sheets for the returning of scores. These
           forms must be filled in as soon after an away event has been played as practicable & should be left in
           the file for the season for the Handicap Committee to review.

           Please do not remove these files from the Club.

           Failure to return any or all of these scores by an individual can result in loss or suspension of their
           handicap under Clause 24.1
                                            …………………………………………
                                                   TEMPORARY GREENS
           Temporary greens will be positioned on the approaches to the main greens if, in the opinion of the
           Course Manager, the weather conditions merit it. The priority is to prevent long-lasting damage to
           the main greens and ensure that the whole golf course is in optimum condition during the peak
           season.
           The temporary greens will NOT have holes cut in them. Players “hole out” once their ball strikes the
           log bearing the flag.
           In the case of top-lying frost, play on the front nine holes will transfer to temporary greens but the
           back nine will remain on main greens. If the frost is prolonged and/or underlying, then play on all 18
           holes will transfer to temporary greens.
           If the Eagle Course is on temporary greens the chipping green will also be closed. If any of the
           holes on the 18-hole course are on any temporary greens, then the putting green will also be closed.
           A decision on the protocol to be followed for each day will be taken at 8am that day and
           communicated to the Golf Lodge: either the situation will remain as it was at 8am or, if the frost is
           due to clear, play will transfer back to main greens between 10am and 11am.
           In the event of extreme weather conditions or green/fringe repairs, play will be temporarily
           transferred onto temporary greens for as long as is necessary.
           Players are asked to respect the decisions of the greenkeepers and thanked in advance for their
           co-operation.
