Kamloops G&CC Implements Interesting Safety Rules
To improve staff safety, Kamloops G&CC are implementing the "30 second rule," requiring cooperation from both golfers and staff. When a worker is within range of a player’s shot, players must wait until they wave you on or clear the area. Staff must be aware of golfers and not let anyone wait more than 30 seconds. They will move to safety and signal you through.
