Frequently Asked Questions
1. Do I need to sign up for all of the tournaments I would like to play? Yes. In order to guarantee a spot for your child, you should sign him or her up when you register. Please remember to pay the full tournament registration and entry fees when registering. 2. Can I sign up after the registration deadline? Yes. A $10.00 late fee must also be paid. 3. Do you give refunds? The Richmond Junior Golf Tour only issues refunds if the tournament is cancelled or if you are placed on a waiting list and do not get into a particular tournament. If you miss a tournament, a refund will not be available. 4. Can I switch my entry fee to a different tournament? Yes, if there is not a waiting list for an event. Please call or email the Tour and inform them that a switch is necessary. 5. Should I call the Tour if I need to cancel? Yes. By informing the tournament director of your absence, you may allow another player on a waiting list to play. 6. What do I need to bring to a tournament? Each player should bring a snack and a water bottle to the tournament in addition to golf equipment. The tournament director will email the players prior to a tournament letting them know if food service is available. 7. When will I know my tee time? Tee times are posted three days prior to a tournament. If the tournament is on Monday, tee times are posted on Friday. The tournament director will email players informing them that tee times have been posted. 8. When do tee times begin? Tournament play begins between 7:30-8:00 am. Depending on the age group, a player may start between 7:30 am and 12:00 pm. 9. How long do the rounds last? A 9-hole round is typically 2 1/2 hours. An 18 hole round is typically no more than 5 hours. Rounds that exceed five hours will be terminated at the discretion of the tournament director on-site. 10. Does the Tour allow 8 or 9 year olds to play? No. Our age brackets are 10-12 year olds, 13-15 year olds, and 16-18 year olds. If a 9 year old turns 10 in the summer, then he or she may play after the birthday. 11. May I move up an age division and play 18 holes? Yes. If you come in first in at least two tournaments, then you may move up to play 18 holes. You will compete against 13-15 year olds. 12. Are volunteers needed? The Tour provides starters and registration personnel, but parents are needed to pass out Powerade or Gatorade and to drive the water cart around the course. 13. Am I required to go the Rules Session? No. The rules session is provided as a service to players who have questions about playing golf in a tournament or the general rules of golf. It is recommended that first time RJGT players attend the rules session. Jamie Fagan, PGA professional, will conduct the rules session. 14. Does anyone answer the Tour phone number? No. The 217-7071 is hooked up to an answering machine. The tournament director makes every effort to return phone call messages within 24 hours. Email is your best option. 15. I am not getting the emails. What should I do? Please email us at richmondjuniorgolftour@comcast.net and let us know that you are not receiving emails. There could be a problem with the email address on file. |
