I have put myself out first so I can be back in the clubhouse to greet you and check the scorecards before the presentation. Unfortunately someone has to go out last, so I have tried to mix the groups up with a range of handicaps where possible.
Due to the daylight it is imperative that in the event of a non scoring hole the player picks up, this will help keep the group moving.
The format will be Stableford using full handicap, there will be prizes for 1st 2nd and 3rd for each round and each round will also have a Nearest the Pin Prize.
I will be at the course for 7am, so I can hand everybody their scorecards and stroke savers. Please remember I wish to enjoy the day too.
If anybody wishes to run a 2’s sweep then that’s fine.
Please don’t rush off after the second round, I know some have a long journey but I will be presenting prizes within 10 minutes of the last group getting back into the club house.
I have spoken directly with Woburn and clean golfing attire is permitted in the bar after the 36th hole.
Any questions, please ask.

Below is a copy and paste of the guidelines I have been sent.

I'm so excited.

Can appreciate just how much work and chasing you've had to do to get this sorted, so thanks very much. Top work!

Gentlemen, I have just spoken to the Golf Club, Thursday afternoon will start at 1329, so the last group out will be at 1409, giving everybody a fair chance of completing the course.

On arrival please report to reception where you will be dirceted to our room. It is easier to leave your clubs in the car until after breakfast, I woud recommed just taking your shoes to change before heading back to the car and onto the Marquiss Course.

Food is to be served on a rolling basis in the Howland Room.

I will have more information on the day as to where we will congregate after the 36th hole for presentations.

Any questions please ask

Robert
