Kia ora, fellow golfers.
You will have heard by now that the Bush Aquatics Ambrose tournament that was to be held tomorrow has been postponed. The new date TBA.
Also, it has been decided to defer the three rounds of Ambrose competition until the summer.
A decision on whether or not we hold our ladies’ foursomes next Thursday will be confirmed early next week. PLEASE NOTE – if the tournament goes ahead, Thursday golf will revert to being played on Wednesday 11th. Thank you.
TEMPORARY COURSE IN PLAY – I hope you are coping OK with this course. Thanks to everyone for your co-operation. The full course will be back up and running as soon as possible, you will be informed by our secretary, and the kiosk will be updated for your cards and competitions.

EXCEPTION TO THE ABOVE RULE:
On the Tee: When you are playing a ball from the teeing area, the ball is not in play until a stroke is made at it. This means that when your ball is teed or on the ground in the teeing area and you make a practice swing that accidentally strikes and moves the ball, you have not made a stroke or moved a ball in play. The Rules allow you to simply re-tee that same ball or another ball without penalty anywhere on the teeing ground.
