The L&RLCGA have been liaising with the  LRGU regarding our tournaments. The moratorium on tournaments by England Golf until and including the 7th June will have an impact on all County events. With this in mind both the Union and Association are working on contingency plans for post 7th June should the current restrictions be relaxed.

We hope to post a joint statement to our members at the end of next week

Covid-19

To All Club Managers/Secretaries, Captains, Players and Affiliated Members

Following the latest Government Directives regarding the Covid-19 virus, the L&R LCGA Executive have agreed that special measures are needed regarding our programme of County events.

The following is therefore now issued as the L&R LCGA position on matches and tournaments. Please note that this is the current status, as the situation is fluid our position may change subject to any new developments.   We will obviously comply with any safeguarding measures taken by clubs or counties in relation to playing matches or tournaments. 

L&RLCGA Policy re Covid-19 – Matches and Tournaments

L&RLCGA are mindful of the current health requirements being published by Public Health England in relation to the Covid-19 virus.
