To familiarise new golfers
with the Rules of the game, particularly those relating
to etiquette.
To show by example that,
in golf, standards of conduct are still considered important.
To teach players how
to be competitive but still retain sportsmanship and
good social relationships.
To enable people to play
a variety of courses, with the accent on inter club
relationships.
To help new golfers pass
through the society and on to teams playing off lower
handicaps.
Handicaps
All
players participating shall be at least 18 years of age, have an
active playing handicap of at least 18 and shall be in a position
to verify their qualification for playing in any match.
Clubs where high handicaps
are jealously guarded so that participation in the Hallett
Cup Golf Society can be continued, will in fact, fail
to maintain the major aim of the Society as envisaged
by Mr. Arthur Hallett (Founder).
