November – Rules Evening
A disappointingly small audience
gathered in the Bistro for what was an enthralling
evening led by David March (Head Professional) and
David Follows (County Rules Official). With humour,
great knowledge and expertise, together with
anecdotes, the two Davids clarified many points in
the rules that we all encounter in our golf.
DO NOT MISS THE NEXT RULES EVENING
– A “MUST” FOR ALL GOLFERS !!
