My golf club has never run a winter league before but have said they are starting one in the new year, which is largely welcomed by the members who carry on playing in winter.
What I'm not sure about though is that they have said they will, where possible, be qualifying events. Mainly down to whether the course is long enough or not. To me though there are other factors to consider. No rough, the ball stops on sixpence most of the time, most of our bunkers are out of play at the moment.
My fear is that I will play the winter league and get cut to a handicap I cannot possibly play too when the main season starts in the Spring. Are they allowed to run them as Non Qualifiers? What happens at other people's clubs?
