State Level Rules Accreditation Officials
Points System to Maintain State level AccreditationThe system for maintaining State Level Accreditation is based on accrual of a minimum of 400 points (or pro rata if newly accredited) attained over the four year period.
The four year period is in conjunction with the issue of new Rules of Golf Books (e.g. 2008-11, 2012-15 etc.)
Attendance at a seminar/discussion bi-annually in the first part of each year when the revised Rules and/or Decisions are published is mandatory to maintain accreditation.
Points will be allocated as per criteria (See document below) and at the discretion of the Committee for any Rules related matters not covered.
One session equals four hours of Rules Duty (or one 18 hole round)

| Mandatory attendance at bi-annual Decisions & Rules revision seminar/discussion | 50 |
