Carts Etiquette & Slow Play

At last as we get back to our much loved game of golf, we are grateful to have carts on the course. Please be mindful of where and how you drive the carts. With the ground conditions still being soft and damp, especially in the roped areas, be aware of golf cart etiquette for your safety and to protect the turf on the fairways.  Making sharp turns or speeding along in the cart and coming to a sudden stop will damage the turf. The same goes for driving through wet or muddy areas as shown above. Stay on the cart path whenever possible to protect the fairway turf and please drive smoothly.

Along with the wet and boggy course conditions please also try and keep up with the group in ahead of you. We understand how difficult course conditions impact slow playtimes but let's all try to make sure the game is enjoyable for all by keeping your game moving.

Free Firewood - Stockpiled Ready for Collection

As we start to rug up again for some colder nights, don't forget to come collect free firewood from the Club's Maintenance facility. Entry is on the corner of Twin and Wicks Road 6am-1:30pm Monday to Friday. Please check in with staff on arrival.
