I've tried looking at the model local rules on the R&A website but couldn't find an answer to this...
Is it permissible to have a local rule that states you must take relief from the tee boxes of other holes?
(Where by "tee box" I mean the entire closely-mown ground within which a teeing area can be located).
My club wants players to drop away from tee boxes during the winter to protect them.
My understanding is that a local rule cannot override a RoG, and that other teeing areas are just part of the general area.
Is the solution to this to declare that other teeing areas (or rather, the entire "tee boxes") are no-play zones (using E-8.1)?
