Rugby Golf Rules

Rugby golf is different than regular golf and will be a lot of fun! You do not need to know how to play rugby or golf to join in the fun!

  • Tee Off = Players will kick from a tee.
  • If the ball lands in play, you can kick from hand, drop kick or throw the ball.
  • If the ball lands out of play, you can only drop kick or throw the ball.
  • If the ball lands in a hazard, 1 stroke penalty, drop kick only.
  • Ball on the green = throw only.
  • Hole is complete when the ball comes to a rest in the hole.

Of course we will add our own rules on top of this!

We will have foursomes tee off every 16 minutes and follow all of the rules put in place for NJ golf courses.

There will be prizes for best foursome score, worst foursome score, closest to the pin and longest drive.

All prizes will be purchased from local Denville businesses to help these small businesses out.

Sponsors Wanted

If you would like to sponsor a hole or tee box, email Bill Dobbs at [email protected] and let him know what message you would like on the sign. You can put your name, company name, in memory of, or anything you want on a sponsorship sign (as long as it does not offend).

If you sponsor a hazard, you are welcome to set up the hazard at the hole, and hazard will be your choice as long as you set it up, and take it away at the end of the day!

Venmo your tax-deductible $50 sponsorship to @William-Dobbs-2.

Alzheimer’s Banners

There will also be banners to put names on in memory of loved ones lost to Alzheimer’s (in purple) and currently living with Alzheimer’s (in blue), as well as honoring caretakers for individuals with Alzheimer’s (in yellow).

You can add name(s) on one of these banners for a $25 donation to Alzheimer’s research, payable to Dobbs via Venmo or PayPal. Email him the correct spelling of the name(s).
