You can find out who you’ll be playing with and which hole you will be starting on at registration. Please note that a “one-ball” rule restricting the number of practice balls used on the course during the practice is in place. Tournament Officials will be present on the course during the practice to encourage this policy. During the practice round, one hole will be chosen as a qualifier for a long drive competition to be held following the practice round. Great prizes to be won! STARTING TIMES Starting times for the first and second rounds will be made available at registration. Tee times will also be available at the golf shop and RCGA Tournament Office after registration. Final round starting times will be based on the competitor’s cumulative score from the first and second rounds and will be available Wednesday evening, July 18^th, shortly after play in the golf shop and at the host hotel.

Make reservations early at 1-800-SANDMAN (726-3626). CODE OF CONDUCT All CN Future Links participants are expected to abide by the RCGA Junior Code of Conduct. Violations of the Code of Conduct will be dealt with based on the severity of the misconduct. The Code of Conduct is available on the Future Links Web site (www.future-links.org) and will be supplied to each participant at registration. NO SHOW POLICY Because all CN Future Links Championships receive far more applications than spots available, it is important that accepted individuals participate. If you find you cannot compete in the CN Future Links Western Championship, you must officially withdraw from the event by contacting Alison Turcotte at the RCGA at 1-800-263-0009 ext. 250. This allows us to replace you with an alternate. If you cannot compete and do not withdraw and are therefore a “no show”, you may be subject to disqualification from future RCGA and provincial competitions.
