Bransford Golf Club now open with temporary new measures

Bransford Golf Club is now open to members and guests with some temporary new measures in place. Please see statement below regarding the opening.

Please also see additional information for members and guests.

Following Boris Johnson’s briefing on Sunday 10th May and Government advice, I am pleased to inform you that Bransford Golf Club is now re-opening (since 9am Wednesday 13th May). The Course however is currently only open to members of the club until further reductions in lockdown measures allow us to get more people out on the course safely.

As I am sure you are aware, advice stipulates that although we may exercise and participate in sport once again, we may do so only with members of our own household or one other person with social distancing in place.

I can also confirm that the Pro Shop will be open with reduced hours operating 9am until 5pm daily; no more than one person will be permitted within the shop at a time. Unfortunately, all changing facilities will remain closed until further notice along with the Clubhouse. 

As mentioned in my previous statement the course will open with the cup’s upside down. It is important that members do not gather on the course and refrain from touching flags or any other equipment out on the course. I would also ask that all members try their utmost to respect social distancing guidelines and work with our team while we adapt to this way of working and playing.

Kind Regards,
Adam Richards, General Manager
