The Captain and the Match Committee control competitions and there are organised competitions for all classes of membership. Saturday is the main men's competition when 7 Day Members may play in the morning or afternoon. On Thursdays a second men's competition, known as 'Scroungers', is open to all 7 Day, 6 Day and 5 Day Members and also to visitors from other clubs at special rates. Sunday afternoon is normally reserved for a mixed or medley competition of a slightly social nature and open to 7 Day and 6 Day Members. A nine-hole competition, played at any time during Fridays and known as the 'Dawn to Dusk', is coupled with a grand Jackpot draw in the clubhouse afterwards. The ladies have their main competition day on Wednesdays and a further 9-hole competition on Monday mornings. You are entitled to use the course at any time except when competitions are in progress but all players must report to the Pro-Shop before starting so that they may learn of any special condition which exists at that time. You are welcome to bring guests and, provided they play with you, a special green fee has been arranged at a reduced rate. For all - Club competitions the Match Committee provide a 'starter sheet' at least one week in advance and joining the competition is as simple as adding your name. This sheet is posted at the noticeboard in the foyer for a few days and then taken to the Pro-Shop so that our Pro', Alan Reynolds(who is official starter), may take further bookings and adjust the starter sheet for cancellations and additions. You may add your name at any time but, if you have any difficulty, please consult Alan Reynolds or his staff who will find a spot for you, however, failing to inform the Pro' of a cancellation, even at the last minute, is a terrible crime with awesome consequences! Before you can play in any Club competition you must establish your Club handicap. To obtain this you must submit five completed, 18 hole score cards signed by an approved member. Your handicap will then be assessed and will appear on the computer screen in the clubhouse foyer. Your guests are very welcome on the course and in the clubhouse at most times but remember that you are responsible for your guest's standard of dress and behaviour both on the course and on the clubhouse. You must also ensure that their correct green fee has been paid prior to their playing on the course.

Please remember to carry your sand bucket at all times to replace divots. Thanks you.
