We would like to thank all of our members and e-Player Card holders for their support for the new safety measures PRGC brought in during Tier 4. Feedback was unanimously positive; it made our golfers feel safer and helped them enjoy their experience just that little bit more.
When we return to Tier 4 or 3 in the near future we will be continuing with this Play Safe, Stay Safe strategy.
Just prior to lock down we had some supportive messages prepared to act as helpful reminders...
- On the paths leading to the 1st / 10th tees we have created 4 waiting areas - each enabling golfers to remain 2m apart
- 1 and 3 are waiting areas for the 1st tee.
- 2 and 4 are waiting areas for people feeding in from the 10th. Masks at 2 and 4 are only required when the course is busy and there is a queue for the 1st. - After completing your round you are asked to wear your mask again as you leave the course and return to the car park. We have also placed some reminder messages here.
Other measures to support this initiative are:
- Mandatory Check In procedures on website
- All appointment confirmations and reminder emails have a 'masks between car park and course' message.
- Clear communication that the only 'social' is on the course not in the car park
We would like to particularly thank John White and the Friday Stableford team who initiated and trialled this on behalf of the club. Another great example of what makes this club so special - going one step beyond wherever we can.
