Bruce is back and Practice Area New Signage

Great to see Bruce back in coaching action! and the new signage on the practice area looks great! Each Tee Off point for the 9 smart shots now has an attractive new metal 'smart shot sign'.  The team have innovated to help with the maintenance of the area - each Tee sign sits like a flag in a sunken 'cup' to make mowing easier.

Well done to Jack and the GK team who are working hard to continuously improve the area - one of the many upsides we are enjoying from the increased investment in GK resources.

At just £160 for 6 x 30 minute, private individual lessons, this is amazing value.  PRGC do not take any commission on lessons, all fees are paid directly to the pro, which allows Bruce to offer such a cracking deal.

Mini Member Forum – Sunday March 1st – Focus on Club Champs

We have been challenged to find ways of making the Barcilon Club Champs more inclusive, fun and engaging - encouraging more people to enter and enjoy it.

We have been gathering feedback and will be offering the opportunity for broader discussion this Sunday at 2.30pm for anyone interested in contributing - apologies for short notice - and if can't attend please still ping us a note on your thoughts

The idea that seems to have garnered the most support for men is here  We are also brainstorming with the ladies to achieve the same goal of increasing inclusivity, fun and participation.

Some of the issues we will be discussing are:

* Best net score is best net score - or should we have a divisional cut off - current suggestion for men is max 30 shots to win the net comp. Over 30 shots wins a prize and is a divisional winner but does not get their name on the board.  Ladies TBC

* Should the men over 75s have the option of playing Gold - if so should they still be able to win the 'net' championship? If not should there be a separate 'Gold Champion' only eligible for over 75s? or for anyone that wants to enter the Gold Comp? Ladies TBC

Lots to talk about and kick around - can't think of a better time than after a good Sunday lunch 🙂

Jacko’s Corner Shed…

A quick follow up on the plans shared last year regarding the upgrades to the car parking facilities at the club.

You will recall that we recaptured the space at the bottom of the car park adjacent to the practice area, creating numerous spaces for a growing membership and club user base.

We committed to building a shed in the 'dead space corner' at the bottom of the car park to help house our growing buggy fleet and we are delighted to announce that this is now in place.

A massive thank you to Jacko (Alan Jackson) for battling an awkward car park canva, some torrential downpours and a tight budget to achieve our goals.

Thank you Jacko - another outstanding piece of work for the club!

NB Next on our programme:

* Front of shoe cleaning area

* Disabled path to members area door

*Better demarcation of spaces to help improve car park utilisation

*Mobility space allocation
