Kindly note the hours of operation are Monday to Friday from 7:00am to 8:00pm, and on weekends from 7:00am to 6:00pm.

It will also help your game get better and better. To get signed up please call the pro shop and ask for one of our Pros, Dwayne, Mark or Adam who will assist with sign-up. Once you are set up, simply download the USGA Handicap App and you will be able to enter your scores immediately following your round.

Adam finished 10 strokes ahead of his nearest rival, shot a 68 on the last day, and was only 6 shots over par after 3 rounds. Alongside him was another member, namely our own Tracy Burgess, who won the Seniors Ladies Championship, and Kim Botelho, who won 2nd place in the Ladies Division. Well done! Adam Perry – 1st Place Men’s Championship Division Tracy Burgess - 1st place Senior Ladies Division & 3rd Place Ladies Division Kim Botelho - 2nd Place Ladies Division Click here to read more. | | From the Grounds Superintendent | Andre Cannonier | | The healing process from the aerification is underway. The lack of rain, however, has meant the recovery is taking longer than anticipated. To offset this, we will cancel the second aerification planned for August and continue to vent the greens on a regular basis which causes no disruption to play. With the Water Park and Sailing School in full swing, there is a safety concern from golf balls flying into that area. To address this concern, we will temporarily shorten the 11th hole, and then in the Fall, the hole will be redesigned and lengthened. Hole #4 will see some construction due to the new cart path being built. We will try to minimize the disruption to play while the construction is taking place. That’s all from me. I just pray for more rain in the next few weeks! Happy golfing, Andre Cannonier | If you have any questions about the course, send us a message by clicking on the button below and we will get back to you as soon as possible. | | Ready set swing! | Upcoming golf tournaments | | 18 holes - teams of two - best ball using 90% handicap.

Shooting below 85 or even near to that number is very difficult if your first move on the downswing takes your hands “outside the line” (that’s a technical term we use to describe the relationship between your swing and the plane). |
“Once your hands get outside, it is almost impossible to hit a straight shot (unless it's straight left for right-handers). You are trying to manipulate the face to be square to the target line. At best you’ll have a fade. Inconsistency is the most likely result." |
Finding the fairway off the tee makes the rest of the hole so much more enjoyable. Then hitting an approach at the green becomes fun. If losing the ball to the trees or rough off the tee, or to the bunkers or water on approach, because a slice or fade ruins too many of your holes, then let’s change that right now. |

Choose one reason from the list and let’s add more joy to your game. |
| | | | | How can we help you? | | Connection matters | |
If there’s one reason why everyone should play golf, it’s the friends to be made and the connections to be nurtured. |
| | We’ve all experienced a world where people have been separated and kept apart. The game of golf has so much potential to heal that world. The game helps to bring people together. | |
It’s interesting that one survey of what people most enjoy about golf saw “fun with friends” at #1, ahead of personal achievement or accomplishment. |
Sometimes when someone joins a golf club though it isn’t as easy as they might like to find introductions when so many groups are already established. |
| | If you’d like introductions | If you’d like to meet more people at the club, or be introduced to new playing partners, then we can help. Just reach out and we can have a chat about how we can help. |
