Ladies our 27 holes foursomes is tomorrow. Please be well ahead of your booked time as tee times will be 5 mins apart as only two balls are in play.
Players who hit off odd tees on the first 18 holes will play even tees on the last 9 holes so will tee off from the 10th hole .
Please play 27 holes and then complete your cards and put in blue bin. (No computer input)
Your table no is on your card so when all eight players are seated, please let the Island House staff know and lunch will be provided.
I hope everyone has a great day, enjoy your golf and fellowship afterwards in the Island House.
