Golf Tournament Rules and Regulations:
A scramble format involves four golfers all on the same team playing together. Each team member hits a tee shot on each hole. The team then collectively decides which of the four balls is in the best position to play next. After the team decides which ball is best, they mark its position. Each player retrieves their ball, and plays a shot from the selected position. This procedure is repeated for each shot until a ball is holed or the team reaches bogey.
Through the Green, each team member may place a ball within one club-length of the selected shot, not nearer the hole. If the shot selected is in the fairway, primary rough, secondary rough, or fringe of the green, the ball must be placed in that same relative position on the course. The lie may be improved by hand placing the ball or by moving it with the clubhead.
On the Putting Green, each team member may place a ball within four inches on either side of the selected shot, no nearer the hole. The ball must be hand placed. The ball is in play when the player addresses it, or if he/she does not address it, when he/she makes his/her next stroke.
The hole is completed when the first ball of the team is holed or the team reaches bogey. When any member of the team plays any ball from the position it came to rest, that is considered selection of that shot by the team.
Team members may stand behind one another (on an extension of the line of play) while they are hitting a shot or putting.
