Conditions of Play from 23/6/2022
All 18 holes are open for play.
Play from the white tees.
Local Rules
- 30cm preferred lies are available on fairways only. A free drop is available from any ‘brown’ or bare area on a fairway.
- Play the ball as it lies elsewhere.
- Mud encrusted balls may be lifted, cleaned and exactly replaced in the general sections of the course.
- On the 12th if your tee shot ends in the sandy, muddy patch in the middle of the fairway you can take a free drop using unusual course condition provisions.
- On the 16th you will notice that the collapsed bank has been blocked from entry. This area is to be treated as a no play zone. If your ball enters that area, then it is in the penalty area and a compulsory penalty drop must be taken from the drop zone which can be found near the palm trees, short and right of the lake.
You are not permitted to enter the cordoned off section at all for safety reasons even if your ball it is visible. If you do so, then you are automatically disqualified. Please stop any person you see about to break this local rule.
- All bunkers are in play.
- Motorised vehicles can be used, and you may drive a motorised vehicle over the bridge on 16.
- Please be aware of any wet or muddy areas and keep well away from greens and tees.
- The new work around the ninth green, involving the installation of root guard and returfing, has been completed.
The freshly returfed area is compulsory GUR and free relief maybe taken at the nearest point not closer to the hole from the reference point.

Canadian Foursomes Rules
This Saturday we are playing a Canadian Foursomes and some may be unfamiliar with the format.
Canadian Foursomes is a two-person team event.
Both players play tee shots at every hole but its ‘alternate shot’ after that.
Player A and Player B both tee off on each hole. The partners compare the results of those two drives and select the best one. If Player B’s ball is selected, then Player A plays the next shot from there. They continue playing alternate shot from that point until the ball is holed.
The golfer whose drive is not used is the one who plays the second stroke.
So, to put it all together: Player A and Player B both hit drives. If Player B’s drive is best, the partners decide to continue with Player B’s ball. Player A picks up his own ball, and Player A plays the second stroke using Player B’s ball. Player B hits the third stroke, Player A the fourth, and so on, alternating shots, until the ball is holed.
Handicap allowance is 3/8 of the combined handicap which will be printed on the card.
