Some good news at long last….
Builth Wells Golf Club (course) will re-open for members on Friday 15th May
We are sure that many of you have been watching/listening to the news in Wales today, stating that golf courses in Wales can re open – good news at long last! The only down side as such is that golf can only be played as a single (1 player) or multiple players if the group is from the same household; the rule for playing golf in Wales is different to the rule for playing golf in England.
Obviously things are not going to return to normal any time soon, if at all, so please bear with us, the rules we are introducing are rules stipulated by the home golf unions, R&A, PGA etc, to enable golf courses to re-open in as safe a manner as possible for both members and staff.
Tee times must be booked either online via the club website, www.builthwellsgolf.co.uk, members page, book a tee time – you will require a username and password; if you haven’t already requested your log in details and wish to receive them please let me know; tee times can also be booked by telephone 01982 553296 option 2 or my mobile 07770 940413. Tee times can only be booked 7 days in advance.
Please see updated rules for re-opening (May 2020), please adhere to these rules; golf will find itself in the spotlight as one of the first sports to re-open, any breaking of the rules will be noted and I’m sure, acted upon! We are aware that single player golf isn’t everyone’s cup of tea, however this is a starting point, please do not take it upon yourselves to ‘join up’ once out of sight on the golf course, if the rules are adhered to they will be relaxed sooner, if the rules are broken we could find ourselves in this situation for longer or worse still, closed once again.
Should anyone have any questions after reading the documents below please don’t hesitate to ask.
Once again a huge thank you to those members that have paid their subscriptions despite the fact there has been no golf, those members wishing to pay please do so at your earliest convenience, card payments can be taken in the Pro Shop or payments can be made online via BACS.
I/we look forward to seeing you very soon.
