Schools qualifying for the 2007 State Golf Championships will be responsible for making their own hotel accommodations. The Division II State Golf Championships are October 2 and 3; the Division I A-AA State Golf Championships are October 9 and 10; and the Division I AAA State Golf Championships are October 16 and 17.

When calling to make these reservations make sure they know you are with the TSSAA State Golf Championships. You will need to bring a tax exemption form along with a school-issued check to pay for these rooms. Schools will be responsible for room plus hotel/motel tax.

A practice round has been arranged for participants only for the Monday preceding the State Championships. Due to the large number of competitors, the arranging of tee times for the practice rounds is a very challenging responsibility. If your team or individual(s) that are qualifying are not going to use a practice round on Monday, we must be notified by 4:30 p.m. on Tuesday following your region competition. We will then post the tee times for the practice round for each region's teams and individuals on the TSSAA website on Wednesday.

Individuals are responsible for all golf fees for the practice round. Competitors will be charged $15.00 for 18 holes (walking). No players who have qualified for the State Golf Championships may play after the assigned tee times for the practice round on Monday prior to the championships.

If you do not call and notify the state office that you will not be using a practice round time, the school will be responsible for the $15.00 fee per individual.

Practice Round Rules

1. One 18-hole practice round will be scheduled before the state championship.
2. In an effort to maintain conditions of the course and speed of play, each player may play only one ball, except each player may putt more than one ball on the putting green.
