During busy times, we recommend players try to keep up with the group in front.

The holes are numbered from 1-9.  Follow them round to complete the game.

Players must play their first stroke from the red squares.

One Stroke Penalty if;

The ball goes off the fairway - replace it where it left.

The ball gets snagged in an obstacle - replace closest to the obstacle on the fairway.
