CODE OF CONDUCT: All AJGA participants are expected to abide by the AJGA Code of Conduct. Violations of the Code of Conduct will be dealt with based on the severity of the misconduct.

OTHER INFORMATION: Caddies are not permitted in AJGA tournament play. Proper attire is required at all times and failure to comply may result in disqualification (see Dress Code Section of Code of Conduct). Golf carts, spectator carts and pull carts are not allowed. NO EXCEPTIONS! Also, no headphones may be worn in AJGA competition.

NO SHOW POLICY: Because the AJGA continues to receive far more applications than it has spots available for in its events, the AJGA is adopting the following policy:

If you find that you cannot compete in the HP Boys Junior Championship, you must withdraw from the event by contacting the AJGA at 877.373.2542 or the tournament headquarters at 407.876.8030 prior to Players Registration. This allows the AJGA to replace you with an alternate. If you cannot compete and do not withdraw properly, you are considered a “no show,” and the following action will be taken:

1. If you have already been accepted for another event, you will be notified of your disqualification from that event.
2. If you have not been accepted in another event at this time, your next application will not be considered.
3. If this offense is repeated, you will not be allowed to play in any more events for the remainder of the year.
