Captains’ Drive-In Welcomes 2012

New Captains Steve Dodd and Anne Savage launched their year of office with a well-supported Drive In on January 2. A full field braved the cold wind of Hallamshire for a Greensome competition before the pair drove off down the first in front of a crowd of well wishers.

hot winter deal £100 fourball

£100 per fourball

Hallamshire is renowed for its fast draining turf making it ideal for winter golf. Winter rules are now in force but we only use temporary greens when it is frosty and only a few winter tees use protective mats. We are pleased to offer a special winter mid week deal for visitors of £100 per fourball. Contact  professional Geoff Tickell (0114  2305222) or secretary Bob Hill (0114 2302153) for details.

HALLAMSHIRE GOLF CLUB WINTER RULES 2011-2012

In order to protect the course from unnecessary damage ‘Winter Rules’ are in operation from now until March 30th 2012.

Players MUST use a mat when playing shots from the fairway. Mats are available to purchase for £5 or can be hired for a returnable deposit of £5 at the Pro’s shop.

Those players whose ball has landed on the fairway but who do not wish to use a mat may clean the ball and place it (on either side of the fairway) in the semi rough. On the close mown aprons and green surrounds please play as normal.

May we also take this opportunity to remind all players to replace divots and REPAIR PITCH MARKS.

 

 

Top Players Praise Hallamshire

The Hallamshire course was praised by the region’s elite amateur golfers and members of the Sheffield Union of Golfers after it successfully staged the Sheffield Plate – the area’s top stroke play competition.

Despite wet and windy conditions, players complimented the condition of the course and many said that the greens were the best they have played on this year. Others from as far afield as York and Harrogate rated Hallamshire as best course they had played.

Graham Needham, Secretary of the Sheffield Union also thanked to the club for allowing the SUGC to use the course for this year’s Sheffield Plate.

The competition was won by Nathan Rogers from Wortley Golf Club who shot a 140, 73 in the morning and a remarkable 67 in the afternoon which surprised all of the SUGC officials as he didn’t go out for his second round until mid afternoon at the back of the field when the weather was at its worst.

Barry Downing was Hallamshire’s top performing player, finishing in 6th place on 147.
