First Major of the Year

Members Prize

Saturday 19th and Sunday 20th May (Men & Ladies)

The Members Prize is the first Major of the year and will be a strokeplay event for Men and Ladies. The Men’s winner will qualify for the Major Champion Golfer (Grand Slam) event. The event also carries double Golfer of the Year points.

1st Prize will be a significant subsidy towards next years membership fee for both Men and Ladies.

The entry fee is €10. Men must ensure that they have sufficient funds in their account. The money box will be checked on Friday and accounts updated then.

Pace of Play

As we move into the summer months and the golf course is getting busier it is useful to remember the etiquette of the pace of play and the following guidelines on Pace of Play from the R&A:

How players can minimise round times:

Be aware of your position with regard to the group in front and keep up with that group.
If you feel that your group is losing ground, tell the other players in your group.
If your group is behind, try to catch up.
If you lose a clear hole and are delaying the group behind, or if there is no group in front of you and you are delaying the group behind, invite the group behind to play through.
Be ready to play your shot. While exercising due consideration for other players in your group, put your glove on, check your yardage, pick your club and line up your putt while others are playing.
At the green, speed up your exit by positioning your bags on the way to the next tee.
Move off the green as soon as all players in your group have holed out and mark score cards at or on the way to the next tee.
Play a provisional ball if your ball may be lost outside a hazard or out of bounds.
