Playing in other Competitions

I have been in consultation with the Glen committee and they have agreed that Juniors who reach an acceptable standard of play and who have demonstrated that they can conduct themselves in an appropriate manner that is becoming to a member of the Glen Golf Club should be invited to participate in adult Glen Golf Club competitions and Club Championship.
 

Should the conduct of the junior fall below acceptable standards this privilege may be removed at the discretion of the Junior Convenor or Match Secretary.
 

In ordinary competitions the junior member may place their name on the reserve list for their preferred time. Although not automatically guaranteed a time within that space, every effort will be made to accommodate each request.
 

In ordinary competitions the junior shall only play for a separate junior prize not the main competition trophy and prize. The junior member will be entitled to enter the sweep and magic twos on payment of the relevant entry fee of £3.
 

In the Club Championship the junior shall play for the principle Club Championship Trophy and prize

Junior members must choose which Championship they wish to compete. They shall not compete in both Junior and Adult competitions in the same year.

As a guiding principle I would expect a Junior to have achieved a handicap of 18 (as an acceptable standard) or under to be eligible to apply to me for consideration to be able  to play in adult competitions. Any current junior member who has already played in a Glen adult competition can consider themselves eligible for future adult competitions.  Any junior member who has not already played in an adult competition, has achieved the handicap guide level or below (18) and wishes to do so should contact me for consideration.

We have also almost concluded discussions on junior members being able to become affiliate members of the Rhodes Golf Club which again will subject to similar criteria above and enable them to play in more competitions. Details to follow shortly including any supplementary fee (it is £25 for adult affiliates but I am hopeful there will be a reduced junior rate).
