As of Tuesday 24th March, sadly the golf course and Pro Shop along with the clubhouse, will be closed. The golf industry has had an awful 7 months or so with the floods, heavy rainfall and now the coronavirus pandemic! People’s health however must come first and golf, or sport in general, pales into insignificance compared to people’s health. Please stay safe and listen to the advice being given and we look forward to welcoming you back to the golf club in the near future.
Welsh golf clubs to shut due to COVID-19 crisis
Following the Prime Minister’s statement, it is clear that golf clubs, courses & facilities must close with immediate effect.
While golf is a sport with many health benefits, keeping golf courses open is no longer compatible with Government policy which is designed to save lives in a time of national emergency.
This action is vital and we must stay home in order to contain the spread of COVID-19 and relieve pressure on the National Health Service.
“These are incredibly testing times for the country and the golf industry but, during this unprecedented period, we will be working very closely with all affiliated clubs,” said Wales Golf chief executive Richard Dixon.
“Wales Golf Staff will be working remotely to support and advise clubs as much as possible.”
