Fire Evacuation
From time to time we need to carry out fire evacuation drills. We would appreciate it if members and visitors who may be in the clubhouse during one of these drills, would please follow instructions from the staff and evacuate the building immediately. Please then assemble at the fire assembly point which is in the car park opposite the clubhouse.

Fog & Lightning
In the event of an electrical storm, suspend play immediately and take appropriate action. (Rule 6-8a applies).

Only the clubhouse and halfway house are suitable to shelter from electrical storms.

Do not commence or continue play in fog/poor visibility, when you cannot see the clear distance of your intended shot.

Green Staff: Have priority at all times
Players should always alert greens staff nearby or ahead when they are about to make a stroke that might endanger them and wait for staff to move out of range.

Buggies
