Competitions
Please ensure your scores are recorded via the How Did I Do app, or if you cannot access this, that a copy/photo of your score is given to the Handicap Secretary, Kevin Royan.
To enter a competition, entry fees are payable, in advance, according to a set procedure. To do so, each player will need to set up, and fund, a Competition Credit Account (CCA). Please click here or CCA tab on the main menu for details. Please ensure your CCA is sufficiently funded* and contact Simon Harding (Treasurer) if you have a query.
* Members entering a competition when their CCA is insufficiently funded risk being ineligible to claim any prize offered in that competition. That includes Birdie Vouchers and any benefit from a Hole-in-One.
Competition Entry Fees Increase October 2023
At the AGM held on September 27th, it was agreed that the entry fee for standard Sunday competitions would increase from £3.50 to £5.00. It was also agreed that the entry fee for the Winter League competition would increase to £15 per player (£30 per pair...).
This is the first increase in nearly 20 years and will enable the Committee to expand the number of prizes and enhance the value of those prizes to the benefit of all competitors.
Please note: Competition entry is via entering your name on BRS - if your name is showing at the start of the competition, then your CCA will be debited accordingly. If you know you will not be able to play, YOU MUST REMOVE YOUR NAME FROM BRS BEFORE THE START to avoid payment being taken! If this cannot be done (e.g. "emergencies"), then please contact Simon Harding as soon as possible to explain.
New Sign-In procedure for Competitions is coming!
Details were unveiled at the Members' Presentation Evening on Feb 25th and a full statement about this and other developments will follow. Meanwhile...
... Competition entry initially will continue via BRS, but players will soon be required to sign-in and be checked off (by physically visiting the starter) prior to their round. Clearly, as stated above, a valid CCA will need to be in place.
This 'check-in' procedure will not be restricted just to Competitions - anyone (Members, Greenfees, etc.) wishing to play on the course will need to check-in to be verified.
