Rules of Golf Education

2012 High School Rules Seminars (Spring & Fall)
The Nebraska Golf Association will conduct a series of free regional Rules of Golf workshops for high school players and coaches this spring for the boys and this fall for the girls. These seminars are a great way to educate your student-athletes before they enter their golf seasons and may assist in making your 2012 competitions fair and enjoyable.

This 1 hour and 45 minute PowerPoint program covers basic rules golfers encounter during play with an attempt to engage the audience by placing them in likely rules situations.

Those coaches who attend will receive a 2012-13 Decisions on the Rules of Golf Book. Players who attend will receive a 2012-15 Rules of Golf Book.

The dates and cities for 2012 include the following.
