Introduction
The Grade 11 students of Annandale Secondary were required to plan and conduct a Golf
Competition for their Physical Education School Based Assessment. Every Physical Education
Student would have donated a sum of $1500 for the funding of prizes and some would have
donated fruits, water etc. All of which were made in contribution to the Golf Competition.

There were also many roles which were needed to be played in order for the Golf Competition to
be a success. The roles included Directors, Secretaries, Media Personnels, Scorers, Team
Stewarts and Medics. All those roles listed previously would have been detrimental in the
successful and complete implementation of this Golf Competition.

The role to which I was assigned was a Team Stewart. I was responsible for maintaining the
playing area as well as ensuring safety of all participants during this Golf Competition, I also
helped players with anything they would have needed, and I also provided food and water so that
the participants could continue without any issue, thus ensuring the flow of the competition.

History Of Golf

International Golf
Origins of the Game

Middle Ages Development

Golf, whose name is derived from "stick-and-ball" or "Gof," is believed to have been inspired by
the Scottish game of Konfusion dating back to the 14th century. The Royal and Ancient Golf
Club was instituted in 1744, set up and governing the rules of golf. Having the first international
tournament in 1873 and the British Open Championship in 1860, golf had attained international
popularity by the 19th century. The first set of published golf rules appeared in 1860, and golf
entered its modern age.

Scotland is believed to be the land of origin of golf in the Middle Ages. At that time, games very
similar to golf were also played in China, the Netherlands, and some other European countries.
In an attempt to make his subjects concentrate on practicing archery, King James II of Scotland
banned golf on March 6, 1457. But since the game was extremely popular, the ban on it was
lifted by King James IV of Scotland in 1502.

The term "a golf" was first used to refer to golf in 1552. Mary Queen of Scots was seen playing
golf at St Andrews Links the same year. Golf was popular all over Scotland by the end of the
17th century.

Walter Hagen was one of the many notable golfers and club owners to have founded the
Professional Golfers' Association of America in New York City in 1901. Quickly gaining
recognition through organizing and sanctioning individual tournaments, the PGA of America
easily became the standard-bearer of professional golf in the US.

The professional game was dominated by elite American and British golfers until the 1970s. It
was only with the participation in the championships by more players from other countries that
the game, in the late 20th century, attracted new audiences and followers across the world. With
his professional debut in 1962, Jack Nicklaus was the first golfing "superstar" of this era.

Regional History Of Golf

One of the founding members of the Club, Mr. Donald McBride informed Mr. John Sellier that
he was one of a group of twelve expatriates who played golf on leased land for three years at
Orange Fields, the site which the Holy Name Convent now occupies. At the time the greens on
the course were merely closely mown areas with a pole in the middle. The rule was, once on the
green you claimed two putts and if the ball got within a club-length of the pole you were entitled
to claim one putt.

To continue playing golf in such an unconventional fashion simply would not do, hence the
group decided in 1891 to register as St. Andrews Golf Club and create a proper nine-hole golf
course at the Queen's Park Savannah in Port of Spain.

The members used the Queen’s Park Hotel as a Club House until 1898 after which the Club
made arrangements to use the Trinidad Turf Club Members’ Stand. This was much more
convenient as the first tee of the Nine-Hole Course was on the inside of the racetrack, close to
the winning pole.

It begins at the turn of the 20th century, when English and Scottish railway engineers convinced
some Benedictine monks to set aside a parcel of land for the game on a monastery near Sao
Paulo. A lot of people would argue it nearly ended there, too, soon superseded in Brazil’s
sporting hierarchy by another wildly popular Scottish import of the era called “futbol.”

Golf remains a niche sport here, played largely by the rich. But the hope is that the game’s return
at these Olympics could spark a boom, not unlike the way a swashbuckling young American
named Arnold Palmer convinced his countrymen to pick up a club and give golf a go in the
1960s.

“What’s happening here, we hope, will be like what happened in the states 60 years ago,” said
Nico Barcellos, who played a dozen years on Latin America’s modest pro golf circuit and
Brazil’s Olympic golf team leader, as well as the head of the national federation. “We’re 60
years behind, but we’re working on it.”

Local History Of Golf

Golf in Guyana has an interesting history. The sport was introduced to the country in the early 20
th century, with the first British Guiana Amateur Golf Championship held in 1927 at the Georget
own Golf Course. Over the years, golf has grown in popularity, especially among students.

In recent years, there has been a significant push to promote golf in Guyana. The Guyana Golf A
ssociation was founded, and golf was included in the Physical Education (PE) curriculum for sec
ondary schools. This led to a remarkable achievement when many students took golf as an electi
ve for the Caribbean Secondary Education Certificate (CSEC) exams, with numerous students ac
hieving high grades.

Today, golf is gaining traction as a popular sport in Guyana, with efforts to expand its reach to m
ore schools and communities. The sport is being introduced to younger generations, and there are
more opportunities for children to learn and play golf. Several golf clubs and driving ranges have
also been established, providing more venues for golf enthusiasts to practice and enjoy the gam.e
.
The growth of golf in Guyana has also led to the emergence of notable golfers who have represe
nted the country in regional and international tournaments. These golfers have become ambassad
ors for the sport, inspiring others to take up the game and showcasing the potential of Guyanese
golfers on the global stage.

Rules Of Golf

Standard Rules
The Game

● Objective: The primary goal is to play a ball from the teeing ground into the hole in as fe
w strokes as possible. Golf is played on a course that typically consists of 18 holes, each
with its own unique layout and challenges.

Equipment

● Golf Clubs: Players are allowed to carry a maximum of 14 clubs in their bag during a rou
nd. These clubs can include a mix of drivers, fairway woods, irons, wedges, and putters.
Each club is designed for different types of shots and distances.

● Golf Ball: The ball used in playing must conform to the regulations set forth by the gover
ning bodies of golf. It is designed to be durable and aerodynamic, with a standard diamet
er of 1.68 inches and a weight of no more than 1.62 ounces.

Starting Play

● Teeing Ground: Each hole starts from a designated area known as the teeing ground. Pla
yers must tee their ball within the confines of this area. The ball must be placed on a tee,
which elevates it slightly off the ground for the initial drive.

During Play

● Stroke: A stroke is defined as the forward movement of the club made with the intention
of striking the ball. Each time a player swings at the ball, it counts as a stroke, whether co
ntact is made or not.

14
Test Code: 01252090 Candidate Number: 0900020105

● Order of Play: The player with the lowest score on the previous hole typically tees off fir
st on the next hole. This is known as having the "honor." If there is a tie, the order from t
he previous hole is maintained.

Ball Movement

● Fairway and Rough: The ball should be played as it lies. This means players cannot mo
ve the ball or alter its position unless the rules specifically allow for it, such as in the case
of a local rule or a free drop.

● Green: When the ball is on the green, players are allowed to mark, lift, clean, and replace
the ball. This is done by placing a small marker behind the ball before lifting it.

Hazards

● Bunkers: These are sand-filled pits designed to challenge players. When the ball lands in
a bunker, players must not touch the sand with their club before making the stroke. This i
ncludes not grounding the club or moving loose impediments in the sand.

● Water Hazards: If a ball lands in a water hazard, players have several options. They can
attempt to play the ball as it lies (if possible) or take a penalty stroke and drop a new ball
outside the hazard within designated relief areas.

Penalties

● Stroke Penalties: Penalties are added for various rule infractions, such as hitting into a w
ater hazard, taking an unplayable lie, or committing other breaches of the rules. Common
penalties include stroke-and-distance penalties for lost or out-of-bounds balls.

● Out of Bounds: When a ball is hit out of bounds, the player must take a stroke-and-
distance penalty. This means the player adds one penalty stroke and plays another ball fro
m the spot where the original ball was last played.

Putting

● Green Etiquette: Proper etiquette is essential on the green. Players should avoid steppin
g on another player's putting line, repair any pitch marks made by the ball landing on the
green, and ensure they do not damage the green surface with their equipment.

15
Test Code: 01252090 Candidate Number: 0900020105

● Holed: A ball is considered holed when it rests within the circumference of the hole and a
ll of it is below the level of the lip. This marks the completion of a hole.

Finishing the Hole

● Holed Out: The hole is complete when a player successfully puts their ball into the hole.
The total number of strokes taken to complete the hole is recorded on the scorecard.

Additional Rules

● Relief Situations: There are several situations where players are allowed to take relief, ei
ther without penalty or with a penalty. These include free relief from abnormal ground co
nditions, such as ground under repair, casual water, and obstructions.

● Match Play vs. Stroke Play: Golf can be played in different formats. In match play, play
ers compete directly against each other hole-by-hole. In stroke play, the total number of st
rokes taken over the round determines the winner.

Governing Bodies

● The R&A and USGA: The rules of golf are maintained and updated by The Royal and A
ncient Golf Club of St Andrews (R&A) and the United States Golf Association (USGA).
These organizations work together to ensure the rules are consistent worldwide.

Modified Rules
1. A total of 4 teams must participate, 1 team per house.
2. Each team must have 1 male from the upper level and 1 male from the lower level.
3. There must also be 1 female from the upper level and 1 female from the lower level.

16
Test Code: 01252090 Candidate Number: 0900020105

4. Each team must have 10 members, consisting of 5 males and 5 females.

5. Each player will be given 4 balls to pot.
6. Every team will have a total of 40 pots.
7. Every goal scored will be awarded with 5 points.

Field Stewart

Role in the Golf competition: Field Stewart

Reason for choosing role: I decided to become a Field Stewart because I wanted to play a key
part in making sure everyone has a positive experience on the golf course, keeping the pace of
play moving smoothly is important to be because I know how frustrating it can be when things
drag on for a while, so if I can help in ensuring that everything goes as smoothly as possible, it
would help me feel successful in this specific field.

Responsibilities

In a golf competition, the role of a Field Steward (also sometimes called a course marshal or
tournament marshal) is essential for maintaining the smooth operation and integrity of the event.
Field stewards are responsible for overseeing the flow of play, ensuring players adhere to the
rules, and managing any on-course issues that arise. Their primary responsibilities include:

1. Ensuring Pace of Play.

18
Test Code: 01252090 Candidate Number: 0900020105

- Field stewards monitor the pace of play to make sure that groups are not falling behind the
prescribed schedule. They may intervene if a group is playing too slowly, offering reminders to
speed up or directing them to move forward if necessary.

2. Enforcing Tournament Rules.

- They help ensure that players follow the rules of the competition, both in terms of course
regulations (e.g., staying within boundaries, using designated areas) and the overall tournament
regulations.

- They may assist in the enforcement of local rules or specific rules related to the tournament,
such as allowing for drop zones or managing unplayable lies.

3. Assisting with Player Etiquette.

- Field stewards help maintain the expected standard of behavior on the course. This can
include managing noise levels, ensuring players respect each other's space, and addressing any
etiquette violations.

4. Providing Information.

- They serve as a point of contact for players, offering information about course conditions,
tournament schedules, and logistical concerns (e.g., where to find food, restrooms, or specific
hole locations).

- Stewards are also responsible for notifying players of weather delays or other unexpected
changes during the tournament.

5. Managing Safety.

- They ensure that all safety protocols are followed, including dealing with any emergency
situations. This might involve coordinating with medical staff if a player or spectator is injured
or requiring attention.

6. Monitoring Spectators.

19
Test Code: 01252090 Candidate Number: 0900020105

- Field stewards help manage the crowd, ensuring that spectators stay in designated areas,
maintain proper behavior, and do not interfere with play. This is particularly important in
professional tournaments where large crowds are present.

7. Assisting with Course Maintenance.

- They may work closely with the ground crew to ensure the course is in optimal condition,
particularly if there are any issues such as weather-related damage or disruptions. They might
also help in marking areas of the course or guiding players in the event of course changes.

8. Handling Disputes or Violations.

- If a player has a dispute with another player or a situation arises where the rules are in
question, the field steward may act as a mediator, help resolve the situation or escalate the matter
to a higher authority (such as a tournament referee or official).

9. Supervising Start and Finish.

- Field stewards often assist with the start and finish of each round, ensuring that players are
teeing off at the correct time and that no one starts out of turn.

Field stewards play a critical role in ensuring the tournament runs smoothly and professionally,
helping both players and officials focus on the game. While their duties vary depending on the
size of the event or the specific tournament, they are generally involved in all aspects of
tournament operations, providing support, enforcing the rules, and maintaining order throughout
the competition.

Reflections

Overall Reflection
This Golf Competition has been a long and difficult experience for me as well as my team, but
by working together, we managed to overcome all obstacles that would have stood in our way.
Throughout this journey, I have been doing my role as a Stewart with the utmost care and
compassion towards my team. It taught me how to care for others and it showed me how
important my role was even if I wasn’t doing anything as major like some of the other roles were
doing. I learnt to understand that regardless of what everyone’s roles were, we were all still
contributing to the successful execution of the Golf Competition.

During the Golf Competition, everyone involved all agreed to put their differences aside and
work together and support each other so as to complete our School Based Assessment. We still
had some difficulties, but we managed to get through it with hard work and determination. A lot
of occurrences during the competition were unexpected but there was nothing we could do but
adapt and find solutions as we went along. Our collective effort and resilience helped us navigate
those unforeseen circumstances. In the future, my team and I plan to enhance our teamwork
skills as well as our problem-solving skills and communication skills so that we do not find
ourselves facing the challenges we faced during this competition again.

26
Test Code: 01252090 Candidate Number: 0900020105

Teamwork Reflection
Planning and executing the golf competition required the collective effort of all the participating
students. Teamwork was essential at every step, thus ensuring proper and efficient planning, a
successful execution of the competition, as well as a positive and supportive environment. Our
collaborative efforts helped us to overcome challenges one person simply couldn't by themselves
and we achieve our goals. Some students, however, found it challenging to work in a team since
they were accustomed to working alone to ensure everything was perfect. Despite some minor
misunderstandings, they made great efforts to cooperate, and we successfully carried out the
competition together. Every participant brought their all to role they were entrusted with, and
they showed great progress from when we first would have started.

This experience highlighted that teamwork isn't just about dividing tasks but also about
supporting one another and staying focused on common goals. It showed the importance of
working together, not just to share the burden and the workload but also to provide mutual
support, encouragement, and assistance if needed. The experience reinforced the idea that
achieving a common objective within a team often requires collaboration, where individual
strengths are harnessed to create a cohesive and effective team. In the end, the students'
collective effort was detrimental to the successful execution and completion of the golf
competition. This experience will leave a mark on every participant, be how minor or major their
contribution was, they still contributed, and everyone would have adapted some skills as well as
new qualities from participating in this Golf Competition.

27
Test Code: 01252090 Candidate Number: 0900020105

Personal Reflection
As I reflect on everything that would have occurred during the Golf Competition, I realized how
much everyone would have changed, whether minor or major. This was a great endeavor for me
because we all learned a lot from each other's efforts and collaborative efforts to assist and
support one another. Normally I don't like working in teams, but this experience has really
changed my point of view and opinion on that. This was because I'm usually used to seeing one
person carrying the burden of everything on their shoulders with everyone else showing minimal
to no effort in helping but everyone involved in the planning and execution of this competition
showed great promise as well as compatibility, determination and great teamwork skills. Sure we
would have had disputes in the beginning, but we learnt to overcome that and thrive to work
towards the successful execution and completion of this Golf Competition.

Moving on, I would do some things differently but thanks to this experience, I learnt teamwork
skills, communication skills, problem-solving skills and adapted in what may feel like hopeless
situations. Moving forward I will exercise my newfound skills to get through whatever challenge
I may find myself in and I will seek to learn from these challenges as well so as to not end up in
the same situation again. What was important in this competition was not the victory but what
the participants would have learnt and how everyone would have enjoyed this experience,
regardless of some obstacles we would have faced, even though my team would have lost, we
still all managed to learn valuable lessons from everything we encountered on our journey since
we would have had to adjust to every situation and find solutions to the best of our abilities. In
the end, regardless of the results, I learnt that with good teamwork you will always succeed.

Recommendations
When planning and executing a Golf Competition, there are some things you should ensure in
order for it to be a successful one. Things like making sure every participant is aware of the rules
and regulations. The athletes should be decided some time before the competition, so as not to
have problems with the athletes close to the competition date. The venue should also be decided
and set up at least a few hours before the competition, so as to avoid potential cancelation of the
competition due to lack of arrangements. It would also be advised for the participants to
cooperate and put their differences aside even if it's just for the competition, this is so that there
isn't any tension and disputes at important times during the competition. Ensuring teamwork is
also important since one single person cannot hope to accomplish anything by themselves in
such a competition. If all the above were taken in consideration, the issue with the planning and
the execution of a Golf Competition should be minimal or non-existent.

29
Test Code: 01252090 Candidate Number: 0900020105

Conclusion
The golf tournament was a transformative experience. I learned a lot about teamwork,
adaptability, and project management. There were obstacles encountered along the way, from
miscommunication to disagreements among my team, but with a positive attitude and a strong
will to succeed, we put our differences aside and united, hence executing a successful
tournament.

Essentially, what was learned was that teamwork is critical to overcoming obstacles, and it is
very convenient to have a team that trusts each other, helps each other overcome their mistakes
in a positive manner, and promotes a supportive environment. What's suggested are aspects like
communication, being aligned, and clear expectations and roles, which means there's much room
for improvement for easier, better things next time during competition. With a team like this,
every member will feel safe and supported, thus encouraging them to do better since they aren't
under pressure from their team.

In the end, I learnt about some significant things that contribute to the successful execution of
competition such as this one. They are included in the following, “There is no I in team”, simply
put one person cannot carry the burden of the interior team on their back, it also means that one
single person cannot hope to accomplish by working on their own, it simply isn't possible
without the support and assistance of your teammates. Another key point is “Trusting your
team”, if you are not used to being a team player, this would be hard, but you must learn to trust
your team, for distrust within a team can have major effects on everyone as well as the
competition.

Injury Report
On the 8th of November 2024, the CSEC Physical Education and Sports students hosted a Golf
competition, to facilitate their class project as mandated by the Examination Council.

The event was organized smoothly, with all participants following the planned schedule.
However, during the competition, three injuries occurred: a sprained ankle, a knee injury, and a
bruised injury. As part of the event's preparations, first aid kits, ice packs, and other necessary
medical supplies were available at key locations on the course. The injuries were promptly
attended to by the available first aid officers, with appropriate measures taken to ensure the
comfort and safety of the affected participants. The sprained ankle was treated with an ice pack
and a bandage, while the knee injury and bruising were also managed using ice and basic first
aid.
Despite these incidents, the competition continued without further complications, and all injured
participants were able to receive the necessary care and support. The event successfully
concluded, with no additional injuries reported after the initial treatment.
