		MEDALIST GOLF ASSOCIATION MEMBERSHIP & TOURNAMENT POLICIES Eligibility All tournament participants must be current registered members of the Medalist Golf Association. Annual membership dues are accepted at the beginning of each calendar year. Members must meet the following criteria: a) Be a male amateur golfer over the age of 21. b) Not be an active member of a college golf team. Entry Procedure All players must apply for each tournament through the Medalist Golf Association process at www.medalistgolfassociation.com, Applications to all MGA tournaments, except the year-end tournament of qualifying members, must be filed with the MGA prior to 5:00 pm, CST, on the Wednesday prior to the tournament. Late, incomplete or inaccurate entry forms will not be accepted. Each MGA tournament has a designated field limit set by the MGA and/or the participating golf course representatives. Entries are accepted on a first in basis until the entry deadline. The MGA Board of Directors reserves the right to reject an entry at any time. Electronic Measuring Devices In accordance with USGA Rules of Golf, the Note under Rule 14-3 for all Medalist Golf Association tournaments is in effect. Accordingly, a player may obtain distance information by using a device that measures distance only. If, during an tournament, a player uses a distance-measuring device that is designed to gauge or measure other conditions that might affect his play (gradient, wind speed, etc.) the player is in breach of Rule 14-3, for which the penalty is disqualification, regardless of whether such additional information is actually used. Code of Conduct Members of the Medalist Golf Association (and their caddies) are to observe proper golf etiquette at all times. Any abuse or disrespect of fellow competitors, officials, spectators, employees of the host facility, or other persons conducting or attending a MGA tournament can be grounds for disqualification from the tournament, and possible rejection of entry for future MGA tournament(s). Such abuse may be verbal or physical, or a threat thereof and includes, but is not limited to: the use of obscene language, physical damage to property or equipment including that of the MGA or the host facility, and being under the influence of alcohol or other controlled substances during a competitive round. Any disagreement with a decision or ruling from the MGA Tournament Committee, any MGA official, or any employee of the host facility is to be handled through the Appeals Process as set forth below. Dress Code Appropriate golf attire is required at all Medalist Golf Association tournaments. This includes collared shirts with sleeves. Shirts must be tucked in at all times. Bermuda length shorts are allowed. Any types of Jeans are not permitted. No shows / On-course Withdrawals Players are subject to future rejection of entries or loss of Medalist Golf Association player privileges, including year-end points, if they: a) Fail to appear for their assigned starting time without notifying the MGA Tournament Committee or a designated official. b) Withdraws or leaves the golf course during a tournament round without notifying the MGA Tournament Committee or a designated official. All decisions relating to player conduct will be made by the MGA Tournament Committee. Refund Policy A player may timely withdraw from a tournament no later than 5:00 pm, CST, on the Wednesday prior to the tournament. If a player timely withdraws, he will receive a credit toward any future Medalist Golf Association tournament, less a $25 administrative fee. If a player withdraws after the entry deadline has passed, the player will not receive an entry fee refund or credit for a future tournament. In exceptional circumstances, a player may file a written appeal for a refund to the MGA. Such appeals will be reviewed on a case by-case basis. Wait-List Entries received after the field limit has been reached, or after the entry deadline, will be placed on a “wait-list” for that tournament. Applicants will be ranked on the wait-list in the order in which their application was received by the Medalist Golf Association. Any spots in the field that become available will then be filled in accordance with the ranked wait-list. The MGA will use the wait-list up until 6:00 PM of the night prior to the first round of the tournament. Prize Money Participants will compete for prize money as determined by the Medalist Golf Association Tournament Committee following the start of each event. Prizes may be awarded in a Merchandise Credit Certificate at a participating golf course or business. Each recipient of a Merchandise Credit Certificate is responsible determining the deadline by which such Merchandise Credit Certificate must be used. And, each recipient of Merchandise Credit Certificate is responsible for any lost credit certificate. If the Merchandise Credit Certificate is not timely used, or is lost, the Medalist Golf Association will not provide replacement Merchandise Credit Certificates. Weather Issues The Medalist Golf Association Tournament Committee will determine if inclement weather conditions require cancellation, postponement, or suspension of a tournament. If a tournament is cancelled due to inclement weather conditions prior to its start, the MGATC will attempt to reschedule the tournament during the same calendar year. If the tournament can be rescheduled, a player’s entry fee will be applied to the rescheduled tournament. If all players have completed 18 holes of competition, the MGATC may, at its discretion, reschedule the final round or consider the 18-hole results to be official and declare the tournament completed. The MGATC will consult with its host golf course representatives on any decisions regarding suspension, cancellation and/or completion of its tournaments due to inclement weather or dangerous weather (i.e., lightning). Appeals of Decisions If any member wishes to address any ruling or decision of The Medalist Golf Association, The Medalist Golf Association Tournament Committee, or the host facility, such appeal or request for review must be submitted in writing to the Board of Directors and mailed to 20405 State Hwy 249, Ste 480, Houston, TX 77070.
