Colville Park Juniors

I’m sure everyone will have seen the rules controversy at yesterday’s Open Championship involving Bryson DeChambeau, where a 2 stroke penalty was assessed for inadvertently improving his lie, and we thought it would a be good opportunity to educate our junior golfers on this ruling.

There is a great video explainer in the R&A App (Which we encourage everyone to download) however this video also offers a great explanation of rule 8-1.

Morning all,

There are a number of Lanarkshire Golf events planned over the next month or so, this is a chance for our junior players to get more experience playing in bigger fields with players from across Lanarkshire and to play other courses from our area in a competitive environment.

The joining instructions for each event can be found in the main post!

Many thanks

Hi Everyone,

We’ve shared an important update via email today (see screenshot).

These changes are aimed at helping things run more smoothly and consistently for everyone going forward, as we continue efforts to improve how things are run across the junior section.

Please take a moment to have a read, and feel free to reach out if you have any questions.

Many thanks

Evening all,

We have just posted on the WhatsApp community about the LGA event at Wishaw GC on the 4th May.

We will share details of all LGA events where there isn’t a clash with our own events, and encourage our junior members with a handicap to take part.

It’s a great experience to play other courses and meet other junior golfers from around Lanarkshire.

Many thanks

All,

Given the weather forecast for Sunday, and to give as much notice as possible we are going to cancel the planned junior medal.

Winds of up to 50mph are forecasted so thought we would spare even our hardiest of Junior members having to play in those conditions!

We will try and reschedule this where we can though, perhaps even during the Easter holidays.

Just a reminder that we also now have a WhatsApp Community set up for the junior section, this will be used for important announcements and updates and you can join using this link:

You can also review the full season fixtures list on the website, there is a link on the Facebook home page that will take you straight there.

Keep an eye out for further updates in the coming days, and we will re-arrange the pre-season meeting ahead of the next fixture.

Many thanks

📱New WhatsApp Community for Junior Section

To help keep everyone up to date this season, we’ve set up a WhatsApp Community for the junior section.

This will be used for:

- Fixture reminders
- Tee times and weekly updates
- Important announcements
- Last-minute changes (e.g. weather or course updates)

We’d encourage all parents/guardians and junior members to join so you don’t miss any key information throughout the season.

The aim is to make communication easier and ensure everyone stays informed as we head into a full and exciting season of golf.

Thanks everyone, and we look forward to seeing you all involved!
