Following Friday 11th September’s announcement on the tightening of Covid 19 restrictions the following statement has been released by Wales Golf:
CLARIFICATION
The Welsh Government have introduced a tightening of the COVID-19 restrictions from Monday 14th of September:
A maximum of six people from the extended household bubble will be able to meet indoors at any one time. This rule applies in clubhouses including restaurants and bar facilities. Please note: Children under 11 will not be counted in the six people.
It will be compulsory for people over the age of 11 to wear a face-covering in public indoor space such as professional shops & clubhouses.
Face coverings will not be required by customers in pubs or restaurants (E.G Clubhouse bar and restaurants areas)
Up to 30 people can still meet up outside
Local authorities are being given more power, so it is extremely important you keep up to date with the latest guidance for your local area and implement such changes in your club/facility risk assessment.
Therefore as of Monday 14th September face coverings WILL be required in the Pro Shop, Clubhouse, Changing rooms and indoor areas at Builth Wells Golf Club; face coverings are NOT required when eating or drinking!
As per the statement above – Local Authorities have been given more power to deal with premises, they are also carrying out regular visits, please adhere to the rules, they are not our rules they are set by the Welsh government, whatever you think of them they are there for the protection of staff, members, customers and the wider public.
Please remember, if you are showing any symptoms of Covid 19 i.e. high temperature, dry cough, loss of smell/taste you should self isolate and certainly shouldn’t be playing golf or mixing with people.
