Ladies Corner

I write this with a sense of déjà vu, because of all the rain!

The first weekend monthly medal has been fought over and won by Shauna Thompkins with a nett of 71.

In 2024, we will continue the trial of two tee times for the Tuesday after the weekday monthly medal.  It is designed to allow greater socialisation and the award of the previous week’s medal. It would be good to see as many people as possible in the club house after the two tee starts.

BDLGA has released the draw for Ladies pennants this year.  For more details please see our Pennant Coordinator Jemma Leonard or visit the BDLGA Pennant website – by clicking here.

Weekend Course Condition

Please refer below for important information regarding play over the weekend and early next week.  Please keep in mind all the factors mentioned in this communication do very little to assist pace of play.  We ask Members to be conscious of their position in the field and limit time looking for golf balls and be patient & respectful.

 

Course Condition

The Course and Maintenance team have not yet been able to mow the rough areas and as such they are expectedly long in some patches. The priority this week has been managing the green renovations, mowing tees / selected fairways and course reinstatement. The greens have been re-dusted late in the week and as such will not have been mowed – as is the normal process following renovations.

 

Local rules

The Local rules board has been updated – it is recommended members read this (as always) prior to playing.

 

11^th Bridge

There is now signage on the 11^th bridge detailing the changed conditions as well as a requirement of cart users to slow their speed upon using it.

 

Private Cart Usage

Following the substantial rain received over the course of the week – it is extremely damp and soggy in certain parts of the course.  The Club is expecting that all private cart users adhere to the requirements of play over the weekend (and until further notice) specifically that all carts are to remain on concrete pathways at all time.  Your adherence and cooperation is essential.

 

GPS Controlled Club Carts

As previously communicated the Club will be restricting motorised carts to the concrete pathways over the weekend (and until further notice).  The Course is still extremely damp and soggy and Member understanding and cooperation is appreciated.
