2022 / 2023 Membership

Due to a change in the Golf Ireland billing process, the deadline for the 2022 / 2023 Membership to be paid will be 30th March 2022.  If a member has not paid by then they will be resigned from the Golf Ireland Central Handicap database. Then in early April 2022 members will be blocked from entering Club Competitions.

Membership forms are available in the members room or can be downloaded from the Membership Page.

Members wishing to pay via Bank Transfer should email info@greenacres-golfclub.co.uk to request and electronic form and Bank Details.

Competitions

The last of our Winter League competitions will be Friday 18th March 2022. Weather conditions will determine when the Sunday, 60 Plus and Midweek summer Leagues will start.

The aim is to hold The Open 9 Hole Championship qualifier on 26th March and then have the first of our summer Saturday competitions the following weekend.

2022 Schedule has been published and can be viewed on the Schedule Page.

Rules

From 1st April 2022 all Clubs will revert to the rules of golf regarding score cards with the requirement for a marker to complete and return a physical score card with both signatures on it.  Members can still enter their scores into the handicap system via the Touch Screen or the HowDidiDo app.
