A short blog this week with a couple of reminders of events that will affect play on the course over the next couple of weeks. Our yearly greens renovation program commences on Monday 30th August. We anticipate the greens will require the two putt rule for a week or so depending on the weather conditions.
The new 15 tee will be in operation as from this Saturday for the Captains Trophy.
Sunday the 5th of September is the closing date for the John Owens Four ball knockout Memorial Trophy. Please enter your names on the sign up sheet on the easle notice board in the club house.
Wedneaday 8th September Open Day - A single event will be played in conjunction with the listed 2BBB Stableford. Single cards will be issued and entered in the computer. The Team score will then be collated by the computer and shown on the leader board. If this is successful all future 2 ball events will be played in conjunction with a single event to bring us into line with most other clubs allowing handicaps to be adjusted on all events. New guidelines have been issued under the new handicap system whereby all players scores will be reviewed in (4) 2 Ball events.
Invitations to play in the Boxmor Trophy 4BBB Stableford (Presidents Team v Captains Team) on September 25th will be posted this week. Naturally you all want to be on the Captains team however I have insisted all players will be allotted evenly except of course past Presidents and Captains will play for their respective teams. There will be no team stacking well not much anyway.
Until next week good golfing and remember "Golf is not a game of perfect"
