Best of luck to all those playing.

IMPORTANT – RULES OF COMPETITION AMENDMENT
As per our “Terms of Entry” to club competitions I am informing you of an amendment that comes in to effect immediately.
We expect all entrants to club competitions to play from the club tee times that we worked so hard to secure, namely 7.30am Wednesdays, 7.30am Fridays, 7.30am Saturdays and 8.30am on Sundays.
If anyone has reason to play AFTER the end of our tee times they MUST first seek approval in advance and MUST have a minimum of three players, preferably four.
This minor adjustment has been approved by and has the full support of Essex Golf Union.
The set of rules on the notice board in the club will be updated as soon as possible.

That’s all for now, enjoy your golf !

Tony
