Following a communication received from Scottish Golf this evening we are delighted to confirm that the Golf Course can begin to prepare for a return to golf on 29 May 2020 at the earliest, subject to final confirmation by the First Minister by way of an update currently planned for 28 May.

Scottish Golf has worked with Scottish Government, Active Scotland, sportscotland, Health Protection Scotland, The PGA and key industry partners at every opportunity to produce a clear guide for all golf clubs and golfers in Scotland which Is attached to this document. Whilst this forms the basis of the guidelines and restrictions which will be in place following the return to golf Forres Golf Club have been producing our own protocol for the re-introduction of golf. This document is currently undergoing minor amendments following the guidelines issued to us and will be made available as soon as possible. The protocol will outline the specific restrictions and guidelines in place at Forres Golf Club for all golfers upon the return to golf.

It should be noted that a final decision will be made by the First Minister on 28 May and if any changes to the current procedures are required to align with updates provided by Scottish Government then these will be shared with you as soon as they are known to ensure re-opening plans can be updated or adjusted accordingly.
