All hats and visors are to be worn with the bill to the front. No denim pants/shorts or cut-offs are permitted.

Player Conduct

Any conduct which may be detrimental to the Pepsi Indiana Junior Golf Program will not be tolerated. This includes, swearing, club throwing or tossing, damage to the golf course or other players belongings and disrespect to tournament officials.

The first such instance of these actions may result in warning, two-shot penalty or disqualification.

Possession of alcohol or tobacco products, gambling or display of vulgar or abusive behavior will result in immediate disqualification.

Multiple violations will result in dismissal from the Pepsi Indiana Junior Golf Program.

Playoff/Tie Procedure

All ties for 1st place will be determined by a sudden death playoff.

All other ties will split points equally, however awards will be determined by a scorecard backup starting with the back nine score. If the back nine score is a tie, the scorecard will be backed up starting with hole #18 for an 18 hole event and hole #9 for a 9 hole event.

If a playoff involves more that 2 players, the playoff is for 1st place only. All other ties will be handled with the above procedure regardless of playoff finish.

Rain Policy

The Indiana Golf Foundation reserves the right to reduce the number of rounds or holes in an event due to inclement weather.

Any 36 hole event that is stopped due to inclement weather will be considered complete if 18 holes have been played. This policy is in effect for the Boys and Girls State Juniors, Age Group Championship, Westfield Junior PGA and Diet Pepsi Masters Tour Championship. In these events, the Indiana Junior Golf Program staff will make every effort to reach 36 holes played on the scheduled event dates.

Any 18 hole event will be considered complete if the entire field has completed 9 holes of play. If all competitors in the same age group have completed the same 9 holes, then the total score from those 9 holes will be used. If they have completed a different set of 9 holes, their score will be determined by their relation to par for those holes each individual played.

If an event is a complete rain-out, an attempt will be made to 1) reschedule the event 2) place all players in another event 3) give refunds to all participants.

Rules Violations & Cheating

Rules violations will be determined by the tournament officials and handled as prescribed by the USGA Rules of Golf, Junior Golf Director and Indiana Golf Foundation Executive Director. If you are suspected of cheating, measures will be taken to monitor your actions or scores in that or future events. If a player suspects another of cheating or violating a Rule of Golf, the player should seek out a Junior Program Staff Member as soon as possible and before scorecards are returned. Cheating will result in immediate disqualification from the Pepsi Indiana Junior Golf Program with no refund.

Scoring Limits

Although the Indiana Junior Golf Program is meant to be an enjoyable learning experience for those involved, there is a high level of competition. For that reason and to help maintain a reasonable pace of play, it is necessary to implement the following policy. This policy is not in effect to discourage junior golfers, but to provide a competitive program on a state-wide level.

Any player who shoots a score over the posted limit for his/her age division at TWO different events will be subject to review and withdrawn from the remainder of the tour schedule. Nine hole scores will be evaluated only when an event is shortened to nine holes. All remaining tournament fees will be refunded.

Scoring Limits

Age Division	18 holes
Boys 17-19	95
Boys 15-16	105
Boys 13-14	115
Girls 17-19	110
Girls 15-16	120
Girls 13-14	130

Spectator Carts

Spectator carts will be available on a first come first serve basis. The Pepsi Indiana Junior Golf Program staff or host golf course staff may disallow spectator carts for any reason they deem necessary.

Cost:
$20 per cart for 18 holes.
$14 per cart for 9 holes.

Cart Rules:

No more than 2 people per cart for any reason (regardless of age).

No players allowed in carts for any reason other than shuttling on to and off of the golf course. ABSOLUTELY NO SHUTTLING OF PLAYERS BACK TO A TEE.

Carts must stay on the cart paths at all times where available. This includes PARKING OFF THE PATH. If a cart path is not available, carts must stay in the rough approximately 30 yards from the players. DO NOT CROSS FAIRWAYS FOR ANY REASON even if helping to search for a players golf ball.

Please keep up with your group. Do not lag behind because there will be a group of players behind you.

Any disregard for these rules or misuse of the cart will lead to the forfeiture of spectator cart privileges for that event and possible future events without refund.

Withdrawal/Refund Policy
