Really looking forward to this, can’t believe I’ve never played South Shields before
I’m planning on getting there early to grab a coffee and sandwich oh and check out the amazing new clubhouse

Hope you can find your way in the fog!

There is fog forecast for Saturday. The course is particularly prone so I would advise you to check conditions before traveling. 0191 456 0475, option 3

MetOffice seems to think it might be ok so fingers crossed.

Luckily I was only half way there when Stu messaged me to say it has been cancelled.
Gutted.
We are hopefully playing Prudhoe this afternoon if anyone wants to join us.

Sadly cancelled due to fog. The course wasn't properly playable until midday.

We have an Autumn open on 10th October for anyone interested, as well as events each month November to March. Bookable by phone to the Pro Shop 0191 4560110

Please tell me when you're available to play midweek & I'll arrange something.

Midweek isn’t really an option for me unless I book a days holiday. Thanks though

Great shame about the weather. However my mate and I braved the mist (true nutters) and went out.
The mist didn’t clear until much later so it was wise to cancel the event.
The course was in great condition, fairways cut lovely and the greens were true.
Credit to the club who let us go out with no charge due to travelling. Very nice touch.

It's mental, we left at around 10:50am and just by driving down the hill to the football parks the mist was almost cleared. I guess it just lingers at the top of that hill.
