Norfolk County Golf Union -NORFOLK &  RECIPROCAL COUNTY CARD 2008

The majority of Norfolk Golf Clubs have agreed to a reciprocal arrangement with other participating clubs in Suffolk, Essex, and Bedfordshire.  A full list of these clubs appears on the Reciprocal Card

COUNTY CARDS OFFER TREMENDOUS VALUE.  THEY ARE AVAILABLE FROM YOUR CLUB SECRETARY  STARTING FROM JANUARY 2008.  EACH PAID UP CLUB MEMBER IS ENTITLED TO ONE CARD ONLY, FREE OF CHARGE, WHICH IS NOT TRANSFERABLE

A holder of a County Card is entitled to ONE DAY'S GOLF  in the Calendar year at  EACH OF the participating clubs in Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex, and Bedfordshire listed on the relevant card, on payment to the Club of up to 50% discount of the current DAY fee, and on any day with the exception of Bank Holidays and any other days when restrictions apply.

Due to other Club commitments, the course may not be available at all times and intending visitors must telephone in advance of their visit to ascertain if the course is available for play under the County or Reciprocal Card Scheme which ever may be applicable. Visitors should also check the cost of their Green Fee.  Some clubs only allow up to a 50% reduction on the Day Rate Green Fee  whether playing one round or for all day. Others allow a 50% reduction on the Single Round Rate when playing only one round. These applications of the Green Fee rates have for many years been at the discretion of the county's clubs.  Whilst  many have allowed a reduction on the single round rate when visitors wish to play  just the one round, usually after lunch, others have  chosen to apply the reduction to the day rate only.

The original intention of the County Card Scheme was for Clubs to allow the reduced green fee against  the DAY Rate for a DAY's golf. Any reduction  applied to a single round rate is a privilege accorded by some clubs to their visitors and is not a right that can be demanded .
