BLUE RIDGE JUNIOR GOLF TOUR, Inc. 2017 Parent/Spectator Guidelines This form MUST be signed by both parents and player and returned with the tournament application entry forms, before tournament entries will be accepted. All tournament application forms will be returned if they are not completed, signed and received at the BRJGT address: Blue Ridge Junior Golf Tour, Inc. Parents and spectators are an essential part of making the BRJGT a great summer tour! We urge you to support the development of young people in golf by following these guidelines precisely: All juniors must carry their own golf clubs except for the developmental 9-hole age groups. (Pull carts only if permitted by golf course.) Keep a proper distance from the players (50 feet is recommended). Act as a forecaddy. (Stay far enough ahead of the players not to interfere with their play but to spot errant tee shots and help locate lost balls for all players in a group.) Spectators must stay on the cart path or in the rough with the exception of around the greens. (Spectators may walk near the greens to watch the players putt out.) DO NOT GIVE ADVICE TO ANY PLAYER! (Rule 8, 2010-11 USGA Rules of Golf). Advice is any counsel or suggestion, which could influence a player in determining his or her play, the choice of club, or method of making a stroke. Penalty in stroke play is 2 strokes! A conversation with a player may be construed, as giving advice-best policy is just not talk to the participants during a competitive round. Abusive language, swearing, and alcoholic beverages will not be permitted on the premise or golf course. Do not disrupt the pace or flow of play. Please pick up any trash you may see left by the juniors on the course. If you think you see a rules infraction, inform a rules official as soon as possible so the situation may be resolved prior to the player signing his/her scorecard. Do not suggest or give rulings on your own. If a player is in doubt about a rule, or situation, spectators may only remind them of the second ball rule. (Rule 3-3, 2010-11 USGA Rules of Golf; the player must then ask the rules official for a ruling as soon as possible. Spectators using golf carts will observe both the clubs rules as well as BRJGT rules in operating that vehicle. I hereby release the Blue Ridge Junior Golf Tour, Inc., and any golf course on which any BRJGT event is held, and their respective officers, directors, employees and volunteers from any and all claims for any injuries or damages arising out of, resulting or related to any BRJGT event.
