Over the past couple of months the NEDGA Executive has been busy gathering a list of our past life members so that we can honour them on our website.
Thanks to those members who have provided photos and information about our life members so far.
But we need your help.
If you have any photos or can help with information about any of our life members we would love to hear from you.
With the recent update from the Australian Government on the COVID-19 situation the NEDGA has postponed all District events including Pennant until further notice. Unfortunately, this is out of our hands but as soon as we have an update on this situation we will let you know.
Following a meeting of the NEDGA match committee on Thursday 19 March, it has been decided to continue with all pennant competitions including:
Monday’s Women’s; and
Sunday’s Men’s, Women’s and Junior competitions.
We request that all scoresheets be returned to the person responsible.
Should a club not wish to provide food on the day of the competition, then would they please indicate this to the competing clubs by the Tuesday prior to the competition occurring.
PLEASE NOTE: Players will not need to pay $10 lunch fee if lunch is not provided.
Some recommendations are:
1. Putting with the flagstick in.
2. Picking the bunker rake up with a gloved hand.
3. Ensuring you have enough fluid to last your round
The health and well-being of our members, volunteers, employees, and golf players are our top priority, and we are closely monitoring the rapidly evolving coronavirus (COVID-19) situation in the world and our region.
While there are no known cases of infection in our region, we feel it is vital to be proactive in ensuring the our club continues to provide a clean and sanitary environment.
As the world continues to manage the outbreak of Coronavirus (COVID-19), NEDGA is looking at ways of taking a proactive approach in an attempt to limit the spread of this virus.
Some of the recommendations are:
· Avoid shaking hands
· Keep a reasonable distance from the person beside you in and around the clubhouse.
· Wash hands as often as you can for at least 20 seconds
. Putting with the flagstick in.
. Picking the bunker rake up with a gloved hand.
. Ensuring you have enough fluid to last your round
At this stage, there is no need to cancel any events scheduled in the district, however it is important to remember that close contact between members is not advised as there is a 14-day window for symptoms to appear. Health alerts are continuing to change, which may impact on the district’s golf.
Any person who has travelled overseas in the last 14 days OR is showing any signs of being unwell, this includes, but not limited to, fever, breathing difficulties such as breathlessness, mucus from the nose, coughing or sneezing, sore throat, fatigue or tiredness are asked not to attend the course.
