There are no restrictions on the width of the teeing area, but it is good practice to place the two tee-markers 5 to 7 paces apart. Placing them further apart than this makes it more difficult for a player to determine if the ball has been teed within the teeing area and can result in divot holes covering a much larger area on par-3 holes ...
The Dressage Arena…. As defined by British Dressage. The standard dressage arena is marked using large printed letters placed at pre-designated intervals around the perimeter. This helps the dressage rider or the dressage instructor, to follow the correct path during tests or lessons on that particular dressage test.
Lateral Aids to Navigation are generally used for well-defined channels to indicate the route to be followed. These Aids show the sides of a navigable channel, mark junctions and forks or splits in the channel, indicate the safe side to pass a hazard to navigation, and mark the safe centerline on wide bodies of water.
Hazard Markers (Diamond) These markers indicate danger and hazardous areas such as shoals and rocks. One can use the information found inside the orange diamond to help avoid these dangers. One can identify these by their orange diamonds. Informational Markers (Square) These markers give directions, distances, and locations.
A well-marked course allows a player to play by the Rules and helps to eliminate confusion for players. For example, a player may not know how to proceed if a pond (penalty area) is not marked or if he or she is unable to determine if a ball is in bounds or out of bounds.
In order to ensure that play is conducted under the Rules , it is important for the Committee to properly mark the boundaries and maintain the markings so that a player who hits a ball near a boundary is able to determine if his or her ball is in bounds or out of bounds. Areas beyond the course boundary are out of bounds ...
The Committee should avoid the use of red or yellow stakes for marking a boundary so as not to cause confusion with penalty areas. The distance between stakes may vary, but, ideally, it should be possible to see the base of one stake from the next one to determine if a ball is out of bounds.
There are no restrictions on the width of the teeing area, but it is good practice to place the two tee-markers 5 to 7 paces apart. Placing them further apart than this makes it more difficult for a player to determine if the ball has been teed within the teeing area and can result in divot holes covering a much larger area on par-3 holes.
It is recommended that the Committee identify ground under repair by using paint, stakes or some other clear way of defining it such that there is no doubt as to where the edge of the area is.
Use of Stakes. Boundary stakes should be white, though another colour may be used. There may be existing stakes already in place that are a different colour, or the Committee may have a reason for using a different colour to distinguish them from some items on the course.
The Committee can mark the course’s boundary in many ways. Stakes or painted lines can be placed in position by the Committee. Existing fences or walls can be used to define boundaries, as can the edge of other permanent structures such as roads or buildings.
In golf, the "marker" is someone who is tasked with recording your scores. Think of it this way: The marker is the one marking down your scores on the scorecard . Markers, in this sense, are probably most visible to recreational golfers when we are watching the pros play on TV.
It is the player's responsibility to make sure the scores are correct before signing the scorecard, even when a marker was the person writing down your scores. "Marker" is a term that appears throughout the Official Rules of Golf, so ...
If you are serving as a marker for another golfer, you should: Observe, as best you can, each stroke the golfer plays; Count those strokes, plus any penalty strokes that may be necessary to add; Double-check the score with the golfer after each hole (this is not required, but is strongly recommended) and write it down;
After each hole during the round, the marker should confirm with the player the number of strokes on that hole ( including strokes made and penalty strokes) and enter that gross score on the scorecard.". And another section addresses the player's responsibilities, which include that the golfer:
That's because they are serving as each other's markers. If you play a round of golf and a marker is keeping your score , he or she will give you your scorecard at the end of the round for you to check and sign. It is the player's responsibility to make sure the scores are correct before signing the scorecard, even when a marker was ...
If the marker and the player disagree about a hole score, the marker can decline to sign the scorecard. In that case, the Committee would have to speak to both the marker and golfer and make a ruling.
The penalty for breaching certain player responsibilities relating to scorecards and markers is disqualification, so it is very important for any golfer who plays or hopes to play in tournaments to read and grasp the full Rule 3-3 (b) .
The dressage rider must memorise the position of the centre markers to ensure movements are executed correctly and at the correct positions in the dressage arena.
The markers also help the dressage rider and the dressage judge know when a particular movement or action should be performed.
The letters in black show the perimeter marking. There will always be physical markers around the perimeter of the arena. But there are never any visible markers to identify the central letters of G, I, X, L or D. The dressage rider must memorise the position of the centre markers to ensure movements are executed correctly and at ...
The images show the location of the letters that denote particular points in the dressage arena.
Beacons and buoys that have horizontal bands of both red and green mark the junction of navigable channels. The top-most color indicates the direction of the preferred, or primary, channel.
Boaters call navigation rules – the basic laws governing the steering or sailing of a boat – “The Rules of the Road.” The Rules of the Road define the roles and responsibilities of vessel operators. If all operators obeyed these rules, most accidents could be avoided.
Nautical charts are the boating equivalent of road maps. A nautical chart provides boaters with an aerial view of a waterway with its Aids to Navigation, landmarks, and bridges, as well as information on water depth, latitude and longi-tude, and a variety of other important navigational information.
These markers indicate an obstruction which is concealed underwater. Never pass between this marker and the shoreline. These markers indicate areas of safe water. These markers assist one by displaying the water which is safe to navigate and by marking the presence of channel entrances, channel centers or landfalls.
Non-lateral markers will assist operation by providing information about the area, as boating. Here are a few examples of common non-lateral markers. These regulatory markers can be distinguished by their orange markings. These markers indicate rules or restrictions which apply to the area.
These markers indicate a prohibited area which is closed off. For instance, these areas could be sectioned off swim areas or areas with fragile wildlife. Either way, steer clear and never cross these boundaries. These markers feature a diamond with an orange cross.
These markers give directions, distances, and locations. One may use the information found inside the square to guide navigation. These markers feature orange squares.
These markers indicate rules or restrictions which apply to the area. These controlled areas can have speed limits, wash restrictions, and other regulations which must be followed so always adhere to the rules within the orange circle.
Robert Stolarik for The New York Times An evidence marker on Lenox Avenue and 144th Street hours after a police-involved shooting in Harlem.
The yellow markers, like little sandwich boards, are placed to both preserve the spot where any piece of evidence comes to rest when the smoke clears, and to protect such nuggets of evidentiary detritus. Of course, they are placed over any relevant ballistic morsels, like shell casings or crumpled bullets ...
Not-lateral markers and buoys can be found anywhere in the water. Lateral markers are the red and green buoys that indicate the edges of safe areas in the water. When you return from sea to port or a harbor the green lateral markers will be on your port side. The red later markers will be to starboard.
Regulatory markers are used to advise you of situations, dangers, or directions. They may indicate shoals, swim areas, speed zones, etc. They can be easily identified by the orange bands on the top and bottom of each buoy. On the water, you will find these markers posted on the sides of buoys to aid in navigation.
Their presence indicates an obstruction to navigation. That means a hidden hazard below the water. You should never pass between an obstruction marker and the shore.
Hazard Markers. These regulatory markers feature an orange diamond. That symbol indicates you need to be cautious. The marker will likely also indicate the nature of the hazard. For instance it may be warning you of shoals or rocks. Use the information provided to avoid the hazard indicated.
Keep-out markers indicate that an area should be avoided. That means anything from a swimming area to an area with endangered wildlife. There may be other reasons for this regulatory marker as well. Avoid these areas and do not cross the boundaries.
Its presence marks the end of a channel. When you see one it means that open, safe water is ahead. You should be able to pass a safe water marker on either side.
Informational Markers. Informational markers feature orange squares. They may also be called information buoys. As the name suggests, these offer information. That can include things like distances or directions. It may even just tell you where you are.
