WEST END, N.C.– The Carolinas Golf Association (CGA) has announced the schedule for its annual series of USGA Rules of Golf Seminars. This year’s series will be the 32nd year the CGA has served the Carolinas with Rules of Golf education and annual rules presentations.
The scheduled 17 seminars are free of charge to attendees, who will view a narrated computer presentation followed by question and answer sessions. Seminars typically last between 1 ½ to 2 hours in duration. A free 2008-09 Rules of Golf book will be distributed to all participants, and information on the Carolinas Golf Association will be available.
The Rules of Golf are revised every four years with 2008 serving as a Rules change year. The seminars focus on the basics of the Rules of Golf and will cover all Rules changes. Seminars are open to golfers of all ages and abilities including members of CGA member clubs, college and high school golf teams and the general public.
Carolinas PGA members receive two MSR credits and Carolinas Golf Course Superintendents Association (CGCSA) members receive .2 credits for attending a seminar.
