Championship Information
PACE OF PLAY
If you find your group is falling behind in pace please keep these tips in mind . . .
• You have 40 seconds to hit your shot. That time starts when you have approached your ball and it is your turn to play.
• Included in your 40 seconds, lining up your shot, measuring distance and practice swings.
• Please be ready to play when it is your turn.
• You may play ready golf, if you need to hit out of turn while waiting for another player, you may do so. Tell your fellow competitors that you are hitting.
• You should always be monitoring your position based on the group in front of you - NEVER BEHIND YOU.
• If there is any question as to whether a ball may be lost, please hit a provisional.
• The Rules of Golf allow a maximum of five minutes to search for a lost ball, although you do not have to take the entire 5 minutes.
• If you loose a ball or have required the assistance of a Rules Official, you are responsible for your group to get back into position based on the group ahead of you.
• Watch placement of your golf bag so that walking back and forth is kept to a minimum..
• Re - capping the previous holes score should only be done as you are walking to the next tee and/or waiting for the group in front of you to tee off.
If you have any questions on pace of play, please see a Golf staff or Rules Official

All golfers on the team will have their scores considered in each step of the matching scorecard procedure. The winner will be determined on the compiled basis of the best three scores for the last nine holes. If the tying teams have the same score for the last nine, the winner will be determined on the basis of the last 6 holes, then the last three holes, and finally the 18th hole.

4. SUPERVISION
At all MHSAA Provincial Championships, interzone and wildcard games, participants must have a teacher from the school division in attendance as a supervisor, or they will not be allowed to compete. In individual sports where it may be unrealistic for one teacher to accompany one student, the zone may designate teacher supervisors for athletes. This must be a written request, signed by each principal involved, and approved by the MHSAA, well in advance. The designated teacher supervisor should have a copy of the letter, with them during the championship.
Teachers employed in the school division where they are coaching a team, may be the supervisor for that team. The responsibility rests with the school to ensure that supervisor(s) are fully acquainted with all MHSAA rules, regulations and consequences. Violation of this rule may result in a fine up to a maximum of $200.00.
Teacher Supervisor Responsibility: each teacher supervisor will be scheduled to accompany a foursome for every hole to assist in the accuracy of the scores. A mutual agreement must be attained at the end of each hole with the foursome and the teacher supervisor. The teacher supervisor will be in charge of each scorecard.
5. INCLEMENT WEATHER PROCEDURE
The MHSAA, in cases of severe weather disruptions, may have to make decisions as to the possible rescheduling of Provincial Championships. MHSAA decisions will be based on Environment Canada Weather reports, the Manitoba Highway reports and weather conditions at the host site.
Information on possible schedule changes will be posted on the host website between 6:30 and 7:00 am on the day of the Championship. Schools will also be emailed any changes. In case of inclement weather, schools should refrain from travellingto Provincial Championships until they receive notification from the MHSAA Assistant Executive Director with instructions and updated scheduling. Schools deciding to travel prior to receiving notification from MHSAA Assistant Executive Director do so at their own risk and will be responsible for their travel and hotel costs, should the event be postponed or changed.
Many schools travel to Provincial Championships on the day prior to the championship beginning. In cases where most schools are already at the host site, the convenor along with MHSAA assistant director will try to modify schedules to accommodate teams that will be arriving later due to weather conditions.
