The practice times as laid out above in the detailed schedule must be adhered to, noting the extremely tight schedule that will be running during the event.

 

Failure to attend on the first tee at least five minutes before the appointed practice times will result in forfeiture of practicing rights on each day. Practice times are only made available for members of the teams concerned. Club and Team Officials are not permitted to play.

 

Players may only play one ball during practice. GI Officials will be monitoring the pace of play of all practicing groups.

 

If your team is not using some or all of its practice time during the official practice round, please e-mail championships@golfireland.ie

 

Referees

Referees will be situated throughout the course to give rulings when required. These referees will be monitoring pace of play.

 

Should players fall out of position, they will be timed and may be penalised for bad times. Please ensure players are conscious of the need to play at a steady pace.

 

NB – It is important to note the status of a referee in match play as these referees are not assigned to follow an individual match. In these cases, the referee cannot intervene unless one or more of the players calls on them to do so.  A team captain is not part of the side under the rules of golf and cannot act on the players’ behalf in this regard. However, a team captain can advise the players to call a referee.
