Crowborough Beacon Golf Club
Thursday is the official Ladies' Day at Crowborough Beacon, so even if there isn't a regular medal or stableford competition, the ladies still enjoy reserved tee times in the morning. On those Thursdays when no competition is being played, a "Pick Up" is organised. Anyone - regardless of handicap - can come and join the other ladies for a fun round.
There is an entry fee of £2 toward prizes awarded on the day. You don't have to sign up in advance, though you are encouraged to do so in order to assess numbers. The Pick Ups are a great opportunity to meet other ladies in the section, and for those who don't feel ready for full monthly matches, they are a gentle way to ease into the competitive spirit.
We also organize a monthly competition during the summer months in which more experienced players are paired with "learner ladies", so keep an eye out for entry sheets for these "Academy Get - Togethers". If you can't make mid-week sessions, there are plenty of ladies who play at weekends and would be happy to make up a game. Please contact anyone on the committee who will put you in touch with ladies who regularly play at weekends.
Occasionally on a Saturday or Sunday, where no competition is planned, the Club organises a Roll-up for all members. You don't sign up in advance, but must be at the club half an hour before the tee off time, pay a £2 entry fee and collect a playing card. The cards are put into a hat and teams are drawn. Playing in teams of three or four, only two of three scores count on each hole. It is a great way to relax, meet new people and mix further into the life of the Club.
Throughout the year there are several Roll Ups on Saturdays or Sundays for fun golf for all comers (i.e. ladies and gents). It's a great way of introducing new members to the course and to other players. Details are in the Diary and posted on the notice boards.
We usually draw for playing partners or teams and share out the £2 per head kitty in cash prizes for the winners.
We have to vary the start times to fit in with matches etc., so please note the diary information for each one. More details from Iain Gibb 01892 665511. See you there!
