2014-2015 UIL Constitution and Contest Rules Section 901: SPRING MEET ORGANIZATION (b) SPRING MEET CODE. The general Spring Meet Code means to: (1) Participate in contests in the spirit of fairness and sportsmanship, observing all rules both in letter and in spirit. (2) Sponsor and advise individuals and teams without resorting to unethical tactics, trickery which attempts to skirt the rules, or any other unfair tactic which detracts from sound educational principles. (3) Accept decisions of officials and judges without protest and extend protection and courtesy to officials. (4) Regard opponents as guests or hosts while placing personal and/ or team integrity above victory at any cost. Maintain grace and poise in victory or defeat. Conduct that berates, intimidates, or threatens competitors, based on gender or ethnic origin, has no place in interscholastic activities. (5) Provide information or evidence regarding eligibility of any contestant or school to local school administrators or to the appropriate judicial bodies upon request. (6) Understand and appreciate the educational values of competition and abstain from modifying or soliciting another teacher to modify grades for eligibility purposes, knowing that such behavior defeats the character-building purposes of extracurricular competition. (7) Abstain from any practice that makes a student feel pressured to participate in nonschool activities. (8) At all times, ensure that competition is relative to a more important overall educational effort, using competition as a tool in the preparation of students for citizenship and successful adulthood. (9) Insure that UIL Academic district, regional and state meets receive precedence over non-qualifying contests or meets. (10) School districts shall notify the academic district or regional meet director no later than the end of the second school day following academic district or regional competition if a student or a team knows that it will not compete at the next higher academic meet.

A copy of all regional entries must be sent to: Brandon Ireton FAX: 325-942-2158 E-mail: Brandon.Ireton@angelo.edu All entries must be emailed or faxed IMMEDIATELY after the district tournament. Schedule: Golf will begin at 7:30 a.m. on Monday, April 13, and will continue beginning at 7:30 a.m. on Tuesday, April 14. Rules: Disqualification: Play will be governed by UIL and USGA rules. Coaches and contestants should familiarize themselves with rules contained in the Interscholastic League Constitution and Contest Rules and the Regional Athletic Director s Spring Meet Handbook. All matches shall be played under U.S. Golf Association rules with the following exceptions: Caddies/Electric Carts Prohibited. Contestants may not use caddies or electric carts during district, regional, or state matches. Pull carts may be used, but participants are required to begin the round with a pull cart if one is desired. Students with disabilities as defined by ADA may apply for a waiver. Contact the UIL office for details. Hazards Designated by Tournament Director. After a player hits two consecutive shots into a hazard, the next shot will be played from a designated drop area between the hazard and the green if permitted by the tournament director. Nine Stroke Limitation. In regional and state competition, a player shall pick up the ball and record a score of nine after the eighth stroke of the hole. If a player continues to play, the player is not disqualified, but must count all shots played. According to UIL rules, a player disqualified for an unsportsmanlike conduct violation COULD have all scores posted by the player not count toward the team score. For example, a player disqualified for unsportsmanlike conduct during the first round will not be allowed to continue. First round scores of a player disqualified for unsportsmanlike conduct during the second round may or may not be cancelled. Thus, the first day or second day score may not be used for the team score. Unsportsmanlike conduct is defined as profane, vulgar and/or abusive language audible to others; carelessly and/or deliberately throwing clubs; verbalizing with intent of intimidation; or exhibiting behavior not in accordance with spirit of fair play. First consideration of penalty should be per USGA rules. If the golfer s action warrants, penalty may be disqualification for the round, and/or in the opinion of the tournament director the violation is flagrant, disqualification could be for the tournament.
Coaches Meeting: Please note that in accordance with USGA Rules of Golf, a player who cannot complete the round because of illness or injury is not subject to disqualification for the remainder of the tournament if the tournament director of the Rules Committee is notified and the reason satisfactory. There will be a coaches meeting (for both boys and girls) at 8:00 p.m. on Sunday April 12, in Classrooms C-D in the Junell Center/Stephens Arena on South Jackson Street. Coaches/Spectators: The following rules should be discussed with all participants and coaches.

Rule violations should be reported by the players or the marshals of the meet. Parents, friends, and other spectators should stay a substantial distance from competitors during play. After play has started, coaches and parents may not coach or advise players. A player is subject to a two stroke penalty on the first offense and disqualification by tournament officials if the coaching continues. On course encouragement, support, applause, etc., is not considered coaching or advice; therefore, it is permissible. Also, coaches are allowed, in fact encouraged, to talk with their players at the turn (after 9 holes) as long as starting play on the back nine is not unduly delayed.

San Angelo is the center of a thriving community of 100,000 and the city nearest the geographic center of Texas. For some, San Angelo is the true heart of Texas. For others, it is where Central Texas and the Hill Country meet West Texas. Either way, it is a community of genuine, big-hearted and hard-working people who are proud of their Texas heritage. San Angelo has a rich and culturally diverse history. Though the city owes its birth to the establishment of Fort Concho along the Concho River in 1867, various Indian tribes as well as Spanish conquistadors and priests traversed the area for centuries before that. They were followed by Buffalo soldiers and pioneer ranchers, who opened the way for merchants, bankers and educators in San Angelo and Tom Green County. This diverse heritage is celebrated annually through the Juneteenth Celebration, the Fiestas Patrias, the Diez y Seis de Septiembre festivities and Frontier Day at Fort Concho National Historic Site as well as Christmas at Old Fort Concho. And, in honor of Independence Day, the community comes together for a grand celebration that includes a patriotic pops concert and fireworks display July 3 at the River Stage on the banks of the Concho River downtown and a July 4 fireworks show over Lake Nasworthy. The annual rodeo and livestock show in the spring and the roping fiesta each fall pay homage to the region s ranching roots. In addition to being a historical oasis, San Angelo is also a cultural paradise. The San Angelo Symphony performs six concerts a year. The San Angelo Civic Ballet and Angelo Civic Theatre offer a variety of programs annually. The San Angelo Museum of Fine Arts with its distinctive architecture provides a wonderful setting for exhibits by some of Texas finest artists. Historical displays at Fort Concho and the Railway Museum of San Angelo attract visitors from throughout the nation. Downtown boasts a series of historical murals and public art in the most unexpected places. The Cactus Hotel is a local landmark with its elegant crystal ballroom, which serves as the center of numerous cultural activities City of San Angelo Page 28 for the community. Visitors along the River Walk enjoy the prize-winning sculpture of the Pearl of the Conchos, a West Texas mermaid with outstretched hand holding a symbolic Concho Pearl, a pink gem unique to the waters of the Concho River around San Angelo. San Angelo beauty is also found in the outdoors with the International Water Lily Garden in full color between March and September. It is complemented by the Sunken Garden, Rio Concho Garden, Terrace Garden and Gazebo Garden, all part of the city s system of 32 municipal parks. The River Walk along the Concho provides 14 water displays, dramatic lighting and a four-mile trail for enjoying nature. The Nature Center on the outskirts of town by Lake Nasworthy is a regional museum and learning facility. Lake Nasworthy along with O.C. Fisher Reservoir and Twin Buttes Reservoir provides residents and visitors a variety of water sport opportunities, ranging from fishing to water skiing. Adjacent to Fisher Reservoir, San Angelo State Park sits astride the junction of four ecological zones, making the park one of the most diverse natural preserves in all of Texas. San Angelo is home to Goodfellow Air Force Base as well as a strong business community that includes such national corporations as SITEL, Verizon, Goodyear and Ethicon.
