SCHOOLS PENNANTS

Pennants is a matchplay event and we are hosting a 6 week schools tournament!  Running every Monday from 3 November at Otago Golf Club we are seeking teams of 3 to enter the series and represent your school or group.

Register your team to your school sports coordinator or to FuturesDunedin@gmail.com.   There is no team registration fee for our first year, lets just get this happening!  

Prizes to be won are $500 for your team golf budget and $50 per team member!

REMEMBER MEMBERSHIP CHANGES

All players will now need to attend an Etiquette meeting and get signed off which will be marked on their dotgolf record.  This is relevant to new AND existing members of the club.  NEXT ETIQUETTE MEETING IS 30TH OCTOBER 6.30PM AT OTAGO GOLF CLUB.

All of our amazing member clubs are aware of these changes and will implement on course.  We have a new printed member cards which will also better identify member categories for the clubs.

Under 10

• Players will ALWAYS need to be playing with an adult in their group (playing or walking) to ensure appropriate pace of play and behaviour.  If you would like to play with your junior, Adult Memberships for U14 Children remain at $150 per year.

Under 14

Unfortunately this age group is one of our biggest challenges.  In this age group children simply do not follow etiquette, maintain positive course behaviour and keep up with pace of play.  We get complaints time and time again relating to children aged between 12-16 who are dropped off at clubs, and left to their own devices.  This cannot continue to happen or we will lose our relationship with our clubs and be unable to offer memberships.

• Players with no handicap will be given 3 months to achieve a handicap.  This is simply playing a minimum of 6 holes at least 6 times.  A handicap indicates to the club/s that you play well, follow etiquette and are responsible on the course.  
• Players with no handicap following a 3 month start off, will need to be playing with an adult (playing or walking) with their group.  If you would like to play with your junior, Adult Memberships for U14 Children remain at $150 per year.

High School Students

This membership group is for students 14 years + and still in high school.  If members continue to use their memberships and are no longer in high school they will be cancelled immediately and no pro-rata refund will be offered.  If you have a current membership and have left school, contact us now for a pro-rata refund.

• We will be doing pro-rata memberships for high school students who are 18 years and still in school, these will be set to expire in December.
• Parent membership for high school members are $250 per year.  Parents can ONLY use this membership when playing with their Futures Dunedin members.
