Following the works the greens will be sandy and a little bumpy for a couple of weeks. We apologise for an inconvenience. 

Please remember these works are essential for our greens to continue to improve!

• Tees – Verti drain, Hollow tine to remove thatch and for soil exchange, top dressed, over seeded with rye, bent and fescue mix and fertilised

• Surrounds – Solid tine and then scarify. After we will over seed any wear areas with rye grass and fertilise

• Fairways – It is intended to scarify fairways and clear them after if possible

• Roughs – Flailing of long roughs ahead of the season will take place the week after Course Maintenance

 

#All greens and Aprons works will be carried out in maintenance week  

Some works on tees, surrounds and fairways will take longer to carry out and will go into other periods.

All works are subject to weather conditions​
