The PHCGC Open is unique in the BMGA calendar as we play over four different
courses; Seafront
adventure golf, Seafront crazy golf, Seafront mini golf and finally Clambers. All are very good courses of their
type. This is the perfect warm-up for the World
Crazy Golf Championships. Be aware that the courses are shared with
the public during competition (it certainly creates an interesting atmosphere.)
Approximate timings, except where stated otherwise:
10.00 am prompt start at Seafront
adventure golf
First round - Seafront
adventure golf
Second round - crazy golf or mini golf
(If there is a large field we can start some groups on the adventure and the others
on the crazy)
13.45 Break for lunch

16.00 Fourth round - Clambers

score over the four rounds.
BMGA rules apply, I wish we could use PHCGC rules but I've a feeling there may
be a number who would object!
It will go ahead whatever the weather!!
