Course safety

When the course is open the decision whether to play is the sole responsibility of the player. This especially applies to extremes of temperature and weather conditions such as thunder and lightning and poor visibility, where we would advise against continuing play.

Players must be alert to their actions and the actions of their playing partners that may cause danger to themselves, their partners and other players in the vicinity of their swing and hitting range.

Course signage must be observed at all times. Ropes and stakes protecting areas of the course must not be removed or crossed over.

Green staff have priority on the course before 10.00 am. Please ensure they are in a safe position before playing your stroke.

Under no circumstances must a stroke be played towards a machine, within hitting range. The greenkeeper will move out of the way to allow you to play your stroke.

Please be observant with regards to other possible dangers on the course, for example ditches, slippery slopes, bridges, ponds and bunkers.

Please act responsibly at all times to ensure safety on the course.

Electric storms

This advice is designed to be of help and assistance and is given by the English Golf Union who are not liable for any damage or injury caused by the following of this advice.

Do not seek cover in shelters, wherever they are located, unless the shelter in question is fully enclosed and is properly earthed. Should competition play be suspended for a dangerous situation by the Committee and there is insufficient time to evacuate the course please stand away from your golf clubs and trolley, and do not put up your umbrella.

Do not shelter under trees or on any high ground.

Do not exit the course by walking under trees if at all possible. Switch off and most certainly do not use a mobile telephone. Keep as low as possible and if necessary crouch down in the nearest bunker or lowest point of the golf course.

Do not put up your umbrella under any circumstances.
