Due to the lessening of restrictions in regard to Coronavirus. We are now proceeding to Phase 3. In Phase 3, four balls are permitted at 10 minute intervals and Competitions are allowed.

Please follow public health guidance and observe all regulations around physical distancing and hand washing. There are hand sanitisers available for use at the club. If you are ill or have symptoms, stay at home.

Ladies and Men’s competitions will resume on Thursdays and Sundays with competition slots available on Saturdays for both. Upcoming competitions will be posted on the website. There are new protocols which have to be observed in relation to holding competitions. Please read these carefully.

For all competitions, the following local rules will apply

Flagsticks must remain in the hole, with the ball retrieving device attached.(Note, a ball must be partially or wholly beneath the surface of the green to be deemed holed. A ball rebounding off the flagstick, back on to the green, is not holed.)
Bunkers: In a bunker, player may place the ball within 6 inches of where the ball lies, not nearer the hole. Players must smooth the sand with club or foot after taking shot. This “preferred lie” rule is acceptable for handicap purposes.

Men's Competitions

18 Hole competitions will commence on Saturday/Sunday 4th & 5th of July. Fixtures will be put on the club website, men's section.

Pre book your slot on the online timesheet App . This will automatically book you into the competition however if you happen to play on Saturday and Sunday you may only enter the competition once. See below on how to ensure competition entry.

Bring the competition fee of €8 in your own envelope with name and date written and place money in the Green Fees Box. Your fees include automatic entry into a 2's competition on a designated hole each week in ordinary competition's.

Please do not congregate in the clubhouse.

There is no sign in book and the computer will not be in operation.

Take your card and bring a supply of 3 home with you.

Fill out details on scorecard as usual. (name, date handicap etc) Please make sure your scores and details are marked in pen as it may be difficult to read pencil from a photo.

Players fill out their own score and record their marker’s score. Calculate your points.

After the round verbally agree score with marker and write marker’s name on card. Cross out marker’s score. Sign your card, Marker does not sign card.

One member of the playing group takes a photo of cards and sends them to Arthur Tormey, 086 - 8555749 Competition Secretary. Make sure to save the number to your phone.

Score cards must be returned by 8.30 pm on the evening of competition.

As mentioned earlier you may only play once in the competition so you must only enter one card and it must be on the day of playing and before 8.30pm on that day.

Ideally if scores could be Whats App’d to Arthur when round is completed, this would be a great help.

Do not put your card in card box. Your card is your responsibility and the committee will not be chasing up unreturned cards. I realise, these are big changes for everyone, committee included, it will take a bit of adjustment and we will monitor it and alter the system as necessary. So please bear with us. If you have any queries, or encounter difficulty submitting score cards you can contact Arthur.

Gentlemen I hope you enjoy the competitions and would encourage all of you to participate.

Thanks for your cooperation.
