Used Golf Balls

There are an increasing number of members and visitors purchasing used golf balls from the grounds staff.
We understand that some of the grounds staff and caddies also deliver golf balls to one or two residents.
We ask members to please not to purchase balls from ground staff or caddies as this encourages the ground staff to look for balls to the detriment of their work.
Caddies are also tempted to remove golf balls from players bags for resale.
In addition there is a security risk to the estate when balls are delivered to residents.
The club sends out ball collectors each Monday and these balls can be purchased from the Pro Shop.
Your co-operation in this respect would be greatly appreciated.

Facebook and Web site

Ilonja Rabie is doing a fantastic job managing the clubs Facebook page and will also be involved in keeping the web site current.
Please follow us and like us on Facebook where you will see all the latest activities at the club.
Thanks Ilonja for all your hard work

Rule Books

The new Rules of Golf for 2016/2017 is available at the pro shop at no cost.
If you are yet to collect one please ask at the shop.

“ Play the ball as it lies, play the course as you find it, and if you cannot do either ,do what is fair.
But to do what is fair, you need to know the Rules of Golf”

Enjoy the Masters Week
