Conditions of Play

Membership

The Following Conditions apply to membership of the Silly Billies and by becoming a member of the
Society you agree implicitly to abide by them.
 

1.  The annual subscription for membership will be £12. This will cover all administration
   costs, including the conditions leaflet and this website, acceptance slips, running
   handicap lists, starting-time lists and location maps and any other paraphernalia
   which seems relevant at the time.
    
2. The fee for any competition you may wish to enter MUST be paid by the notified
   closing date,which can be found in the annual leaflet or on the site. If you have
   not paid by the closing date (10 days before the date of the competition)
   it will be assumed that you either cannot play or do not wish to play in that
   event. The 10-day interval allows the committee to prepare and distribute starting
   lists in good time, allows the golf clubs to allocate a spread of tee times and, where
   appropriate, to prepare for catering.
    
3. Procedure for entering a competition
   a) Entry slips will be distributed at an event for the following venue.
   b) Those entry slips which have not been collected will be placed in the Society Tray at the King Billy for collection.
   c) A notice informing members that entry slips have been placed in the Tray will be placed on the pillar, covering the pseudo olde worlde graffiti, opposite the entrance to the main bar.
   d) Any entry slips which have not been collected one week before the closing date for entry will be posted. This represents an expense which, in a number of cases, can easily be avoided.
   
   The only exception to item (ii) may be made where groups are imbalanced e.g. a group of two playing in a 3-ball individual or team event. Under these circumstances a late entrant will be permitted to enter an event at the discretion of the organiser.
