We Might Just Get Going Soon

Here's an update on league play for 2021.

I've been in touch with Steve and Tom this past week and now that golf is back on the menu for this second summer with the pandemic, it looks like we could be playing soon.


It's my understanding that we're looking at Wednesday June 2nd for the first night of league play. At this point I don't have an updated schedule to share.

Steve Powell was contacting team captains to confirm the returnees and will let me know the schedule once it is available and as always I'll try to post it here as soon as I can.

If I get any more information I'll pass it on.

For quicker updates, I try to post to the league Twitter account which can be located under the name @mhwnml if you're on Twitter.

Golf Course Open

Spring has sprung and unfortunately the Covid19 Pandemic is also still in bloom but even with the current lock down I'm pleased to report that Murray Hills Golf Course opened today for the season.

I'm still awaiting official word on a possible start date for our league to begin play but I've heard the that it will likely be at the beginning of May.

Once I have the "official" info from the powers that be, I'll be sure to share them here but I'm also sure the team captains will hear from Steve Powell once the schedule is set.

In the meantime, I'm sure many of our members will be getting out to shake the rust off. Just remember that you are still required to book tee times or at the very least call ahead.

See you soon and stay safe.

Course Opens Saturday

I’ve received official word that the golf course will open on Saturday. However, the details about how you can golf are still being worked out and the discussion about league play is also taking place but if or how this will move forward is still undetermined.

While other information is still yet to be confirmed I can tell you that if you wish to just golf on your own at Murray Hills you will need to book a tee time in advance. This will allow for better control of the golfers on the course. The hours of operation may also be limited as well.

So the best advice I can give you is to call ahead and speak with Alida or Tom.

I’ll keep you updated as quickly as I can.

COVID-19 Closes Course

We hoped it wouldn't happen but Tom and Alida have had no choice but to close the golf course.

With the continuing COVID-19 Pandemic causing increases in more cases and deaths in the province and around the world, we all have to do what is necessary to try and bring this crisis to an end as soon as possible.

Here is the announcement posted to the Murray Hills Golf Course Facebook page earlier today.

Until such time as the course reopens and the league can begin play, stay safe and take care of those you love and as soon as we get the word that things are in the works to begin play, I'll let you know. Hopefully we will be back golfing again this summer.
