COURSE UPDATE
Drainage Works
Please note new drainage works will begin next Monday 4th November on the 1st, 4th and 5th holes. It is estimated that the works will take approximately 1 week weather permitting. It is likely that there will be some hole closures during the week. A mail will be sent to the timesheet daily to advise those affected.
Winter Course and Placing
Please note in conjunction with the above drainage works we will be introducing the winter courses and full placing from Monday 4th November.
Course Care
Below are a couple of pictures taken on the course on Tuesday.
Can everybody please:
1. Repair Pitchmarks
2. Replace Sand Divots
3. Rake Bunkers
Please see a link below to some short videos kindly borrowed from Dun Laoghaire Golf Club on the correct way to do all three.
