Ready, set, let\u2019s kick-it!<\/strong> In association with the American Foot Golf League (AFGL), Bergen Golf Course has opened the first FootGolf Course in town. FootGolf is one of the fastest growing international sports. It is a precision sport that is a combination of soccer and golf, however the rules largely correspond to the rules of golf. The (soccer) ball is kicked rather than struck with a club and the holes are 21 inch diameter cups.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At Bergen Golf Course, our 9-Hole Course is set up to accommodate 18 holes of footgolf. It takes approximately two hours to play.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to Play FootGolf<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Played with a regulation #5 soccer ball (the best ball for footgolf), the basic footgolf rules are like those of golf: the first shot at each hole has to be taken from the tee, and players must play past the usual array of bunkers, trees and hills. FootGolfers are expected to abide by the rules of the hosting course, including dress code and appropriate shoes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Adapting an existing golf course for footgolf isn\u2019t as difficult as it might seem. FootGolf fairways run parallel to existing golf layouts (18 holes of FootGolf can be played in about the same time as nine holes of traditional golf) and the big 21-inch footgolf holes are typically placed in the rough or near undesirable hazards like sand traps, so it\u2019s rare for players of the two games to come into contact \u2013 or conflict \u2013 with each other.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

FootGolf Rules<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

There are 10 basic rules to FootGolf:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2022 Wear golf apparel all the time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2022 Your ball must be easy to identify.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2022 Review the scorecard and wait for your turn. Make sure your kick will not interfere with other players.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2022 The ball must be played in a single movement. Your foot should be set separate from the ball, clearly behind, before the kick.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2022 Wait to play until the ball has completely come to rest. (It is not legal to stop the ball from rolling with the wind).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2022 Kick off your ball from a position up to two meters behind the round markers (tee markers). \u2013 The order is established based on the score of the previous hole. The player with the best score will be the first to kick off on the next hole followed by the second, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2022 Play the ball from where it lies: It\u2019s not allowed to move the ball or remove jammed objects. \u2013 Exception: You may mark the spot and lift the ball when it may obstruct the other players kick or ball in any way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2022 The player farthest from the hole is the first to kick the ball.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2022 If the ball lands in a water hazard, retrieve or replace it within two steps from the closest land point from where the ball entered the water, receiving one penalty point, or you can place the ball at the position of the previous kick and receive one penalty point.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2022 Only on the greens may the balls be picked up to be cleaned or replaced. \u2013 Regardless of the distance from the hole, the hole must be completed. \u2018Giving\u2019 to the opponent is not allowed.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
