From Monday 1st November no play is allowed from our fairways unless the ball is on a fairway mat. This rule will be kept in place throughout the winter months. With temperatures providing little growth during the winter months these small bits of Astroturf help protect the turf from divot damage which would otherwise take until the summer to repair. Every golfer must carry a mat and if the ball lies on the fairway, the mat is positioned as near as possible to where it lies.

Until new caterers are appointed, we are dependant on volunteers to open our Bar and Catering at Silverdale Golf Club. We have arranged outside caterers to ensure that all major events and opens are covered over the next few months. We feel sure that our valued members and visitors will be patient and supportive during this time.

We currently have 2 opportunities for sponsorships on our fantastic course: Slope Board: Our slope tables are displayed en route to our first tee. Most members and visitors stop to check their current handicaps before going to start their rounds. 2nd Tee: The 2nd tee sponsor board is one of the first things you see after you have crossed Red Bridge Lane. It is of modern tee furniture construction. Included in the packages are: - The sponsor’s company ad erected on the board -
