Hi Robin & Co
1. I’m a little bit surprised that you and the Committee have made such an autocratic decision, Roll -ups on Monday, Wednesday and Friday will be a strictly 'golf only' activity with immediate effect. We will meet outside the golf club as usual and select teams in the usual way. On completion of the round we will disperse immediately without meeting in the clubhouse at all. Players should try to keep at a safe distance and avoid personal contact.
whereas the club. Is business as usual (according to the club president Dr John Harris Just a few minutes ago)
I fail to see the benefit (in my opinion)of such a knee-jerk reaction which applies only to our Senior section. If your decision is in light of the Governments recommendation that people over 70 years remain indoors, then arguably, “should anyone over 70 actually be there at all”. Which I strictly do not advocate by the way. What about the midday roll-up? Are they doing the same?, I imagine a lot of those players are over 70
I do agree with you, that demonstrating sensible behaviour regarding contact, keeping a safe distance etc is a good idea, but as to the above. No!
Until either the club closes, facilities close or I decide myself. I for one, will not be doing the above. I will continue to use the locker room facilities, toilets, hand-washing and coffee facilities as normal
Kind regards
Peter
