The PEI Golf Association and Kevin Champion School of Golf take great pride in the quality of players and host facilities for all of its events and development camps. All players must adhere to a set of guidelines known as the Code of Conduct. Its purpose is to help players grow and mature by understanding and accepting the consequences of their actions. The Code of Conduct is to be followed throughout all events and related programs.
