For the 13th Golf Monthly Forum Help for Heroes Charity Golf day we are going to the seaside to play at Hayling Golf Club. The Club is on the south coast in Hampshire and the date is Tuesday 18th October 2022. www.haylinggolf.co.uk
Hayling is a stunning links course, the only true links on the south coast between Rye in East Sussex and Cornwall. It is ranked 52nd in Golf World’s Top 100 English courses, and is comfortably within Golf Monthly's top 200 GB&I courses. It is also ranked as the 2nd best course in Hampshire. This is no goat track !
Each year it seems to become more difficult to find a top course that will give us a good deal which then allows us to make a generous donation to the Help for Heroes Charity. Hayling though has come up trumps in spades and we are very grateful to them for giving us the following deal –
£75 to include buffet full English breakfast, 18 Holes individual stableford and a two course carvery lunch.
There will be a shotgun start at 09.00, which should ensure an earlier finish than last year. The total number of players we can have is 100, which the club can easily cater for in their lovely large Art Deco style clubhouse. A round at Hayling would normally cost £100, so we have been given a very good deal.
The golf is costing just £45, the food £30. The donation to the H4H charity will be £25 again this year, so the total cost will be £100. I will set up the charity JustGiving site shortly and once a donation has been made your place will be secure. In the meantime, put your names down on this thread if you would like to play.
To speed up registration, I will collect monies due to the Club, £75, in two payments. £40 by the end of April and £35 by the end of August. Please note these payments will be made to me and not to the JustGiving site. Please keep an eye out on the forum for details of how to make these payments which will be posted shortly. Those that played last year should already have my bank details, but anyone that doesn't will just need to send me a pm.
If you have to pull out after making these payments to me, you will receive a refund as long as cancellation is not within the last week leading up to the event. Please note that donations made to the justgiving site cannot be refunded in any circumstances.
Initially places will be allocated to forumers and to one guest, but I anticipate more guests will be able to book places nearer the time. Hayling are flexible on numbers so we will try and squeeze everyone in that wants to play the day.
Dave (Papas1982) is already looking to arrange a game on Monday 17th October and will put up a new thread with details when he has them. A double header will hopefully encourage those that will have to travel a decent distance to make the trip and find accommodation in the area. I know there are a couple of Premier Inn's with a few miles of the course. We may be able to get local members to sign forumers in at their courses over the previous weekend.
If you have any queries regarding the day, please ask on this thread or drop me a pm.
