Belton Park Golf Club: Handicap News
The EGU & CONGU have come up with a couple of ideas to make it easier for all golfers to record the requisite 3 qualifyling scores per year. The details are as follows:
9 Hole Stablefords
Obviously intended to assist those golfers who struggle to get round 18 holes. The Match Committee have arranged a number of these qualifying competitions, which are played from the yellow tees. The dates are as follows:
Friday 2nd April
Monday 10th May
Friday 18th June
Monday 23rd August
Saturday 9th October
Sunday 7th November
Please note that only certain golfers are eligible, please speak to the pro's or a member of the Match Committee for more details.
Supplementary Scores
To help those members who struggle to make organised competitions, you can now enter a Supplementary card, which is a qualifying score at any time of the day, any day of the week. Obviously, this being golf, there are lots or rules, so please speak to the pro's or a member of the Match Committee for more details.
