You may be aware that last week we had a few days where there was a trolley ban at Cottesmore rather than closing the course. Having listened to your comments throughout the week, it is no longer our intention to have trolley bans. If we deem the course open for play trolleys will be allowed but we may insist they are used with winter wheels only.
This is our commitment to you, however we also need your assistance whilst ground conditions remain wet. We ask that you use a carry bag where possible, but if trolleys are essential for you please keep them away from the collars and approaches of the greens. Please follow the posts and ropes that we have on the course. These are there to minimise wear in key areas and will assist us in keeping the course open for you.
Please be aware that trolleys are currently allowed without winter wheels. However, if you wish to purchase some from us to help protect your course from excessive damage we will now sell winter wheels to you at cost price. We also have trolleys for hire with winter wheels where a hire charge will be applicable. Thank you for your co-operation.

Biggest Mover Challenge
The Biggest Mover Challenge has been fiercely fought over, yet there could only be one winner. Congratulations to Justin Acres for winning this challenge. Justin overtook Shari Cox right at the last moment, just as Shari had been leading all the way.
Justin managed to accumulate 45,605 Moves in the 10 days
Shari Cox finished second with 43,224 Moves
Third place went to Chris Paul with 32,057 Moves
Moves are a measure of your physical activity. The more physical activity you do and the faster you do it, the more Moves you collect. Moves do not take into account body composition, making them fairer when competing against people of different shapes and sizes.
Finally, a big thank you to all 25 members who took part in this challenge and look out for the next challenge coming very soon.
Winter rules are in place!
