Aorangi Golf Association

Clubs may record up to 2 premier events on the Aorangi calendar per year.
A premier event is usually a Tournament that has always taken place on or about that date for the club, and requires support from players within the district.
Other important events maybe included in the program at the discretion of the match committee.
Clubs are not to hold tournaments when a premier event is being held within a reasonable radius of the premier event (say 40kms), without first getting approval from the club holding the event, and advising the Match Committee
Other than the premier event, any event that calls on golfers within the area is considered to be in breach of the rules, and that club could incur a fine of up to $500.
When golf clubs hire out their courses for a charity tournament, it is the golf clubs responsibility to ensure that no advertising of the event takes place without prior written permission from the golf club who is holding a premier event at the same time.
A tournament that does not call on usual golfers like an Alliance Smithfield hit and hack day or police tournament where players come from out of the region is not considered being in breach of the rule.
If in doubt contact one of the Aorangi match committee for clarification.
