  • ANNUAL REPORT 2015 CHAIRMAN's REPORT Dr Val
    ANNUAL REPORT 2015 CHAIRMAN’S REPORT Following on from the adoption of the Governance and Electoral procedural review last year and GUW’s commitment to Sports Wales Governance Framework we advertised Board and Chairmen of Committee vacancies. The number and calibre of applicants was gratifying and has resulted in the appointment of a group of people with a diverse range of skills that will enable us to continue to build on the excellent foundation and progress achieved by GUW since its inception in 2007. A strategic review of GUW will be held shortly to ensure we are addressing the needs of Welsh golf in the best possible way. Dr Val Franklin Richard Dixon continues to manage and support a dedicated team of staff whose hard work and commitment delivers the best possible programmes to support Welsh golf clubs and players. It’s always sad to lose members of any such team but we wish Gavin Reen, Stuart Stenhouse and Ben Waterhouse all the best in their future careers and thank them for their contributions during their time with us. Challenges remain for golf globally in terms of participation, particularly in the area of male and female golfers for which the levels of players remain at 85% and 15% in Wales respectively, and retention of members but adopting flexible approaches to being part of a club, playing the game and encouraging families should hopefully help to redress this balance. GUW’s programmes are available to support clubs and players and its encouraging that more clubs are engaging in these programmes as reflected in case studies on the GDW web site but clubs do need to fully commit to using and implementing these resources to maximise their impact and sustainability of change.

  • Faqs for Golf Re-Opening in Wales
    Frequently Asked Questions regarding the re-opening of Golf in Wales Q: Can I play golf with somebody outside my household, even if we play at a social distance? A: Under the current Welsh Government Restrictions, you either have to play as a 1 ball or with another person from the same household. Golfers in the car park, around the club and out on the course must stay in their one-ball or household two-ball to ensure there is no congregating which is an offence under the regulations. This may or may not change the next time the Welsh Government considers making changes to the lockdown restrictions. Wales Golf stresses that these regulations are those imposed by the Welsh Government and not by Wales Golf. As one of the first sports to be allowed to resume, there is a major responsibility for golf clubs and golfers to ensure that our sport is conducted safely and responsibly. Full adherence to the provisions of this Protocol is essential. It should be noted that the Government continues to monitor the situation closely and retains the right to reintroduce restrictions which could see golf clubs closed if the Protocol is not followed. Q: Can professional shops, driving ranges and toilets be opened at the golf club? A: Clubs should contact their Local Trading Standards, Environmental Health Agency regarding professional shops and opening toilet facilities. It is also recommended that clubs check everything with their insurance companies. An area may be required to register players and monitor the first tee. However, safe practice must be guaranteed.
