The aim of the Golf Course Policy is to provide guidance and bring a continuity and consistency to the management of the course.

Most of the Golf Course Policy describes the main aims & objectives for maintaining the various areas of the course, along with the prescribed operations. Details such as mowing heights and frequencies of the maintenance operations are described in order that club members have an understanding of the maintenance procedures that apply to their course and the reasoning behind the procedures.

In many cases there is an ongoing need to review the document and update it in line with changes and fluctuations. Typically these will involve changes to staff numbers, specification of materials, environmental challenges and legislation. Details of mowing heights and green speeds will typically be included.
