Golf Booking Rules and Instructions for use of the Booking Calendar
Tees can be reserved up to 1 Month in advance. The correct procedure for booking a tee time is to:-
1) access the booking system to ascertain availability
2) telephone Boringdon Park on 01752 339113 or Trethorne on 01566 86903 to reserve a tee time.
(You are booking on the Plessey Corporate Cards, not CHIPS Golf Society)
3) then update the booking calendar.
The booking staff may ask for the names of all players, not just the person making the booking.
Each of the 4 cards may be used more than once per day – on the condition that there are only a maximum of 4 people playing golf at any time (regardless of which course). You should allow 4 hours 30 minutes between tee times.
When you arrive to play all golfers must book in at the pro shop – and the staff may ascertain your identity. Both clubs will hold a list of members entitled to use the Corporate Membership (including photographs).
Guests cannot use the Corporate Membership - your guests can play at “members’ guest rates” – payable to the Golf Club.
Any member who is already playing more than once in a week may be asked to give up a slot by another member who would otherwise be unable to play. There is no rule regarding this but common sense and fair play should prevail - please think of others - it may be you asking next time. This should particularly apply at the time of monthly competitions.

In the 'calendar text' box - put (e.g.) x2 - where the '2' is the number of Corporate cards being used (guests and club members do not use the Corporate cards - so if it is just you and 1 guest playing you only put "x1") - and all names.
Please put names in the format of First name & Initial of surname (e.g. PhilO) and separate names with spaces - not commas.
Select start time (nearest time before) - there is no need to put a finish time.
Select appropriate 'Category' from the drop-down. This will only colour code the entry - it will not be displayed. Therefore please use the 'popup text or URL link' box to inform others of the actual tee-off time and the course to be played.
This box is 'free text' so you can then put any additional information you want. For example you can put that it will be your competition round or if you are playing with others that are not using the corporate cards (club members perhaps).
Click on 'submit' then 'view calendar'.
At the main calendar screen you may need to click on 'Today' in the top menu bar to view the current week.
Please ensure that the information you put on the system is accurate. If anything changes please ensure that you record these changes on the booking system.
Others may wish to join groups already booked - and this is to be encouraged.
Please do not book a 4 ball 'just in case'.
When you have finished -
close the calendar or nobody else will be able to access the system.
