Kent Golf Limited
Eric Green Trophy 2026 Rules
- Format is singles match play over 18 holes. Matches that are level after 18 holes are to continue on a sudden death basis. Strokes continue to be taken as per the Stroke Index. Entries will be limited to 64 players and should a ballot be necessary, this will be done on date of entry.
- Handicaps will be limited to 28.4. Players who have a Handicap Index of more than 28.4 may enter but will be restricted to playing off 28.4 for the match. It is advised that players show proof of handicap to each other before the match commences.
- Handicap Allowance is the full difference between Course Handicaps on the day of the match calculated in accordance with the Rules of Handicapping published by the R&A and the course being played.
- Caddies are not allowed until the final.
- Contact When the draw is issued, it will specify a "draw date". Within two weeks of the draw date and, thereafter, within one week of the "play by" date or end date of the previous round, the Home player should make contact and offer at least three dates, spread over not less than two weeks. Should the Home player not contact the Away player within the period specified and offer dates, they will concede home advantage and the Away player may then contact the Home player, choose the venue, but must at the time of contact offer three dates, spread over not less than two weeks. All rounds of the Competition are to be played by, or on, the date specified in the Draw Sheet. Total inability to do so is to be discussed with the Golf Manager well before that date.
- Results The Winning Player is to inform the County Office by email office@kentgolf.co.uk as soon as possible after the match.
- Green Fee It is hoped that the home player's club will allow the visiting player courtesy of the course for the purposes of the match. If courtesy is not allowed, both players will be expected to bear the cost of the green fee for the match in equal shares. The visiting player has no right to a practice round, unless that facility is granted by the home player's club. The visiting player shall be solely responsible for any practice round green fee.
