Friendly Matches

I/C Friendly Matches : Heddie Straw

Friendly Matches are a good way to experience pairs matchplay. The format, which is usually chosen by the Home Club, is mostly 4BBB, with a few Greensomes matches. We always play friendlies in twos so, if you are new to this  you will be out with someone experienced in matches, who will help you with tactics and match etiquette. This is a very relaxed way to get used to playing in inter club matches. Away matches are an excellent way to play other courses for the cost of  refreshments,  before or after the match;(a lot cheaper than a green fee!) By the nature of the matches, they are very friendly games of golf and you get to meet new golfers, who may just become firm friends!
