New 9 Maintenance
Maintenance is progressing well on the new 9, with the 9th green having been dug up and redesigned, new drainage installed from the left-hand bunker at the 10th green and all new 9 greens have been reseeded to boost growth. The GUR ditches to the right side of the 12th green have also been filled and seeded. We are still on schedule to complete the new sprinkler system and also carry out the agreed work to the 2 bunkers around the 11th green to open up the right side of the green. This work will be completed over the winter months in time for the 2019 season beginning.
