JM MEDIA VANCOUVER OPEN

Aug.18-20th

McCleery / Langara / Fraserview

 

NOTICE TO COMPETITORS - DRIVERS are NOT PERMITTED on the MCCLEERY PRACTICE RANGE!! 

 

We are excited to welcome all 312 of you to this year's JM MEDIA VANCOUVER OPEN next week!!  All three of Vancouver's City Courses are in wonderful condition as we approach our Championship.

 

We have had several reports from the McCleery already of errant balls flying over the netting and nearly hitting golfers on the 4th hole. With the length of the McCleery Practice Range approximately 240 yards long (and the 4th hole in direct line of play over the practice net), we must enforce the following LOCAL RULE for PLAYER SAFETY, starting immediately (08.14.23) and continuing until the final tournament rounds have been played at McCleery Golf Course:

 

LOCAL RULE (RE: McCLEERY PRACTICE RANGE)

DRIVERS ARE NOT PERMITTED FOR PLAY ON THE MCCLEERY GOLF COURSE PRACTICE RANGE

 

With the EXTREME DANGER this poses to players on the 4th hole,

 IF A PLAYER FAILS TO ADHERE TO THIS NOTICE (whether prior to practice round play or tournament play),

THEY MAY BE SUBJECT TO IMMEDIATE DISQUALIFICATION from the Vancouver Open competition. 

 

Thank-you for your attention to this very serious notice and the result of any breach of this notice. 

 

Sincerely,

 

Vancouver Open Rules Committee
