    Cash prizes cannot be awarded. Travel expenses to an event sponsored by a golf organization as well as lodging, air fare and board are acceptable in retaining the players’ amateur status.

    I think the limit may be 300 quid, but i wouldn’t recommend trying.
    give out expensive gifts and receipts!
    they can either keep them or sell them back.
    E.G my club gave out vokeys! I lost on countback!!!!
    give out a driver and a bag

    It is allowed but there is a limit. I’m sure a phone call to the R and A would tell you what the limit is.

    Prizes in amateur events are limited to a value of £500.

    Under 300$. The prizes, can be worth up to $10,000. If you accept larger amounts, you lose your amatuer status.
