New Rule #9 Disciplinary Measures

Discipline

“ Spare the rod, spoil the child” the saying goes. While not advocating corporal punishment for the non-repair of divots, I feel standards of behaviour mustn’t be allowed to degenerate. I therefore propose a suite of measures that will ensure SGC safeguards its’ good reputation in North East golfing circles.

-Prohibition of ankle bangers. Senior members will no longer be permitted to wear their twenty year old breeks at half mast.
-6 month ban for the playing of Penfold Commandos or Dunlop 65s
-Golfers who take fresh air shots will be reported to the police
-Players scoring over 100 will be placed into stocks on the practice putting green and pelted with rotten fruit
-Anyone taking four putts on one hole to be suspended
-Following sayings are now banned from putting greens; you dropped your lipstick, dead sheep, does your husband play?
-Failure to clear the gully from the tee will require the culprit to reload wearing a bell encrusted jester’s hat
-Banning of tee pegs with mini pomp poms attached
-Two consecutive shanks will attract a lifetime ban


The introduction of these measures can only enhance the reputation of the club. We cannot expect respect when ill attired players are swishing air shots over the top of Penfold Commandos which they've perched on tees that are linked by string to bright yellow pom poms.
