GOLF LESSONS WITH DAVID HAYES

Golf Lessons given by Donal Considine Dungarvan G.C. will take place at West Waterford Golf and Country Club on Tuesday 17^th August. A timesheet for the lesson is posted on the notice board in the hallway and the lessons commence at 6.30pm.

TIMESHEETS

Time sheets apply for all club competitions. Please put up you’re name and those playing with you for your place on the Tee. Please remember: Players with their names on the timesheet have priority on the 1^st Tee.

Owing to increased playing numbers, the practice of putting down a name +1 or +2 is no longer acceptable. Only individual names will suffice as this facilitates the smooth running of the timesheet, by identifying who is actually booked in to play with whom.
