Keen for some Feedback Please
We are looking at reviewing the match play trophies. Currently we have three match play competitions which run throughout the year in various divisions.
1) Campbell Cup (Silver), Billy and Mary (Bronze), 9 hole match play
2) Margery Holt Memorial (Silver) Bronze 1 salver and Bronze 2 salver
3) Club Championships (Silver) Intermediate (Bronze 1) and Junior (Bronze 2)
We are looking at potentially changing Number 2, in some way.
Questions; please provide feedback to Annabelle.absolom@gmail.com
1 - Do we need three match play events in the year?
2 - Would you prefer to play more social golf (e.g., yellow ball, Irish stableford) and have prizes for longest putts or closest to the pin rather than play for trophies?
3 - Are you interested in some other type of events, if so what and is it something you would like to organise with our support?
Fairway Irrigation Replacement
Please note a reminder if playing an LGU competition while the fairway irrigation replacement is taking place, you will NOT be affected.
