Members,
Starting next week Waterland will be working on course to provide upgrades on our irrigation system.
Work is expected to take two weeks (weather permitting) with only minimal disruption.
Tuesday the 27th will be mapping and marking, with installation work to commence on the 28th. For any competition round that is affected, the Match Committee in consultation with the Greens committee have decided to “close the hole” that is being worked on the day of competition. Each player will automatically be awarded 2 stableford points for that hole. ie If hole 4 is closed, players will play holes 1-3 normally, then walk directly to the 5th tee and continue their round from there.When walking the closed hole, please ensure that you keep clear of all work and machinery for your own safety and that of the workers.
Weekend golfing will not be affected and all trenching and abnormal course conditions caused by the irrigation work will be deemed GUR under a temp local rule that will come into effect next weekend (Match Committee has moved the Midweek Monthly Medal to July 12th so as not to be affected by the work)
We have chosen this time of year as there is less traffic, but we understand that there still will be players on the course so please show patience if held up by any movement of machinery or any of the work.
Good Golfing
Capt Kev
