Winter Golf
RULE CHANGE FOR OUR WINTER GOLFERS.
BLUE FLAG OUT - ALL MAIN GREENS CLOSED PLEASE PLAY TO WINTER GREENS.
SUBJECT TO CHANGE THROUGHOUT THE DAY DEPENDING ON WEATHER CONDITIONS.
This change has been implemented as some still play to the greens when they are unplayable.
The BLUE FLAG is used so we all play the same course, any decision made is for the best of our course and greens, the greens may not be white with frost but still hard under the surface or they may well be saturated, so the BLUE FLAG will then be used. Kenny will lift the BLUE FLAG if weather conditions have improved, he may need to bring out the BLUE FLAG if the weather conditions deteriorate.
We will be closing some greens for the remainder of the season there should be no more than 5 closed at any one time and the closing of greens will be rotated, this is due to certain greens in need of treatment or rest.
Greens 2, 3, 7, 10 and 17 will be closed please check information board for these changing.
Thanks for your co-operation H.G.C.
