NCGA Rules!

On Saturday morning, ASMC Men's Club hosted an on-course rules seminar attended by our members as well as women from The Sea Gals. The 3-hour event was led by NCGA Rules specialists, Ray Coates of Redwood City and Lynne Gangi of San Jose.

Lynne Gangi discussing options for red stake and yellow stake areas

The customized course covered several topics including play on and around greens, relief from temporary and permanant obstructions, playing options in and around the bunker, water hazards, rules affecting the teeing ground, starting times and scoring.

The format was casual and upbeat, The co-leaders invited questions throughout the seminar and the members didn't dissapoint. The Q&A was lively and the NCGA representatives were kept on their toes.

Thanks to Bill Miller, ASMC Rules Director for organizing the event and to Ray Coates & Lynne Gangi for leading a superb event.
