Pitch Marks

Leaving pitch marks when playing destroys the greens. It takes a lot of care and attention to keep them in pristine condition, so all members and green fees are asked to repair them and use the correct repairer when doing so.
Do not use club heads to repair a pitch mark as this damages the green.
Always use a pitch repairer.
Also do not use the club head to take balls out of holes on greens as this damages the hole.
You can find more information on repairing pitch marks on our Facebook page

Course Etiquette

Treat your fellow players with respect at all times.
NEVER walk away from the green when the game has finished, always acknowledge your playing partner.
Always show respect for the course and other players by not making noise, especially when they are playing their shots.
The only time you are allowed to shout is when you are shouting FORE.
When you see you are delaying the play of those coming behind, allow them to play through.

MANNERS COST NOTHING.
