Please find below the latest playing information and competition updates from the Handicap and Competitions Committee.
Due to deteriorating course conditions, Competitions which are 'Acceptable for Handicap' will no longer be played this season. Until further notice, all competitions that we run will not be acceptable for handicap and any scores returned will not affect your EG Index. Please note that we will not be accepting any further 'General Play' scores until further notice.
Due to us switching off our digital courses, it is now not possible for you to enter any scores on Lee Park courses using your EG App. If you do wish to enter any scores via your App, please ensure that the course that you intend to play is 'Acceptable for Handicap'. We will check any scores that are submitted this way and will delete any which we find do not conform.
PREFERRED LIES
With immediate effect the following local rule is in force:
When a ball lies anywhere within the general area, the ball may be lifted, cleaned and replaced no more than six inches from where it originally lay without penalty.
The player must mark the original position of the ball before lifting it and the area of relief must remain in the general area and must not be nearer to the hole than where it originally lay.
The General Area refers to any area of the course that is not a hazard and is not a putting green.

REMINDER
The Final of the Autumn Shootout will be a 0930 shotgun start on Sunday November 3rd 2024. Tees will be allocated on a merit basis. In addition to deciding the winner of the overall competition, this shotgun start will be a 'day competition' in its own right with the usual prizes awarded for performances of the day. Refreshments courtesy of the Handicap and Competitions Committee will be served in the Spikes Bar following the Golf.
