No golfers should arrive at the club without a pre-booked tee time, those doing so will not be permitted to play. Bookings affected by any forced closure of the courses will not be transferred.
Locker Room
Following guidance issued by Scottish Golf, locker rooms will NOT be open. Additionally Scottish Golf recommend that golfers use toilet facilities at home before leaving as there will be no availability at the course.
Locker rooms will be open on Thursday 28th May between the hours of 10am and 4pm to allow any members to collect their clubs. Please report to the Starters box window on arrival to collect your clubs.
Hire
We will not be hiring - clubs, trollies, buggies or selling (balls, tees, gloves etc.) at the starters box during this phase 1 of opening. We will keep this under review and expect to introduce in the days and weeks ahead.
Arriving at the Course
From Monday 1st June, it is essential that you arrive only a short time (10 - 15 minutes maximum) before your tee time. If you are on site earlier than this, please remain in your car until 10 minutes before your tee off time. Park in such a way as to maintain social distancing requirements and please change your shoes at your car.
Golfers for both 18 & 9 Holes must report to the starter's box window on arrival for registration.
Warming Up
Initially the practice putting green and practice area will be closed but we are working to have these available in due course.
Course Condition
During Lockdown the Greenstaff had to follow strict measures set out by the governing bodies regarding essential maintenance on the courses. Despite these challenging regulations and working throughout the lockdown, idVerde staff have done a wonderful job; the courses are looking fantastic and are ready to go.
In the days ahead please be patient with the Greenstaff as they continue their work to improve the courses following the weeks of lockdown restrictions; some of which remain in place. With all this in mind you may notice reduced pace on the greens and some other areas where the staff are working to improve the course conditions. - this is an ongoing process.
Playing Your Golf Round
Scorecards should be used sparingly, if at all and must not be exchanged.
Initially bunkers will be GUR. When in use (which will be soon) do your best to smooth the sand, after your shot, with your feet and/or your club.
Course furniture has been removed where possible and any remaining has been covered and must not be used.
Stakes must not be touched or removed and are to be treated as immovable obstructions.
During this first phase of opening, no flag sticks will be present on the greens to reduce the opportunity for the virus to spread to staff and golfers. Holes are of a much reduced depth allowing retrieval of your ball with reduced risk of contamination.
Social distancing and common sense must be exercised at all times.
Completion of Your Round
On completion of your round we would ask that you understand this brings an end to your social time on the course. After putting out you should return directly to your car to change shoes and put your equipment in the car then leave. By remaining socially distanced at all times you will help keep golf open.
Keeping in Touch
To stay up to date with any further developments keep an eye on our website at golfdundee.co.uk
We look forward to welcoming you back to the courses.
