PLAYER EXPECTATIONS

Integrity - Each player counts each shot and reports the correct score for each hole. We do this for everyone in the playing group. Honesty with scores and rules are the biggest deals. For golf. For life. Integrity is at the top of this list for a reason.

Rules - It’s good for players to know the rules. Rules are designed to save you strokes and time. In golf tournaments, you owe it to yourself, your teammates and opponents to know the rules. At West Michigan Golf - Junior Tour we follow the guidelines of the MHSAA.  Want to test your knowledge? (click here for USGA Rules or click here for USGA Rules Education).

Check In - Please arrive at least 30 minutes before your tee time to check in at registration.

Dress Code

• Collared shirts or mock turtlenecks should be worn.

• Prohibited dress at golf courses are items such as tank tops, t-shirts, cargo pants, gym shorts, jeans, camo…the list is longer, though you get the point.

• Should a host golf course have a stricter dress code, its policy will take precedence…for example shirts being tucked in throughout the tournament.

• Hats/visors must be worn with brim forward.

Golf Course Care - Please replace divots in the fairway, rough, and teeing area. Please rake bunkers. Please repair your ball mark on the green and two others. Respect the entire course and players coming. We want to leave the golf course in better condition than when we arrived.

Sportsmanship - As a player and human being always show respect and be friendly. Be thoughtful and courteous to all other players, officials, and spectators. You are here to have fun, make friends, and play golf. Let’s go!
