The ball must be show or kicked directly from the ground.
Every encounter with the ball is counted as a shot or kick.
Special obstacles, which must be tackled or avoided, are displayed at the beginning of the fairway and on the score card.
There is a stated par figure for every fairway; this is a guideline for the number of shots or kicks.
A flight consists of one to a maximum of 5 players, who start the game at the same time (on one fairway).
Course rules, etiquette:
Duration of game on 18 fairways, maximum 2.5 hours.
If possible, always start on Fairway 1.
If waiting too long to start on Fairway 1, you should start on one of the free fairways.
(Example: start on Fairway 10, then after 19 fairways the game ends on Fairway 9) Playing on: anyone searching, going back, taking a break or playing slowly must immediately let his successor play on.
Every player must avoid hitting or injuring other players.
Other fairways must never be overplayed or cut.
You must not climb on deliberate obstacles and walls or use them for sitting down. Nor must you enter the pond.
If you tear tufts of grass out of the ground, you must put them back and stamp them firmly down.
Studded or cleated shoes are not allowed.
Dogs must be kept of a leash and are not allowed on the course.
Cigarette-end collectors (buckets) can be obtained from the ball house.
You must follow our groundkeeper's instructions.
You play on the football-golf course at your own risk.
Will persons accompanying players who are not playing themselves please use the spectators' paths.
Please take every cigarette end and other rubbish home with you from this nature park.
Please do not bend, break, tear off or tear out any plants.
Rules of the game:
Play is always from the tee-off towards the hole flag.
You must always drive across the tee line (between the marks or lines).
You drive off from the tee in turn and from the fairway whoever is furthest from the flag.
If a ball gets into the neighbouring fairway, it must be quickly placed at the point from which it was driven (repeat the shot) and a penalty point will be added.
The same procedure is also used in case of an unplayable ball.
If the ball lands in the high grass (rough), the player must decide: either to replay his shot, in which case a penalty point will be added, or to play on as the ball lies, without treading down the plants.
Should the ball fly out of the course (over the fence) or into the pond, two penalty points will be added and a new ball must be fetched.
The maximum shot number to be cumulated per fairway is marked on the score card.
Having reached the maximum shot number, add the par number to this figure and change to the next fairway.
