WINTER Fairway Mats 2017 WITH effect from Friday 20th January a requirement to play from fairway mats will come into operation at Strandhill Golf Club. WITH temperatures providing little growth during the winter months these mats will help protect the turf from divot damage which would otherwise take until the summer to repair. THEY are carried by the golfer and if the ball lies on the fairway. THE mat is positioned as near as possible to where it lies. THE ball is then placed on and played from the mat. PLEASE refer to the Local Rule displayed on clubhouse notice boards. STRANDHILL Lodge & Suites Winter League THE Ladies and Men’s committees would like to extend their sincere thanks to Mary & Damien Henry for their generous sponsorship of this year’s Strandhill Lodge & Suites Winter Leagues. BOTH competitions were highly enjoyable and very competitive.
