Rules Education

Golf is a self-regulating game and it is the responsibility of all golfers to know the Rules. The Rules provide the framework for the way the game is played. A sound knowledge of them will allow you to deal with most situations you encounter on the golf course and it may even save you a few strokes. With the new Rules of Golf taking effect on 1 January 2023, the Education programme now focuses on these new Rules.

For those that want to know more than the basics, and for those that need to know more, e.g. referees, golf club officials and competition organisers, a more thorough knowledge of the full Rules of Golf and the Official Guide to the Rules of Golf is required. All of the information in these publications can be found on the link below.
