This area comprises an extensive general practice tee combined with a specifically designed and constructed short game area. A little used area of the existing practice ground underwent considerable ground-shaping and contouring to create gentle slopes and mounds to compliment the magnificent sand dunes in the background. A two-tier green with two bunkers was constructed to a very high specification, including a full watering system. The fairway and surrounds were turfed and local native grasses used to blend the development into the surrounding area. To help alleviate the high wear that will inevitably be caused by extensive usage, artificial grass tees have been provided at strategic areas - allowing high repetition practice from a variety of locations, ranging in distance from twenty to eighty yards. Around the green are a number of chipping mats, again blended into the surrounding turf. All the associated work, from design to construction, was carried out from resources within the golf club without the use of external contractors.
The Golf Club are delighted to provide this additional practice facility for its members usage, and for the expansion of its coaching plans for the future.
