News from SGU Golf Central

SGU Golf Central Logo

As part of our ongoing commitment to this service for our clubs and for golfers alike, I write to advise you of some changes to both the look and feel of the site and the domain name at which the site may be accessed directly. In addition, I am pleased to advise of a new SGU web site within which SGU Golf Central will continue to be found.

The new SGU web site will go live on Monday 1 September and may be found at www.scottishgolf.org. The site will feature all of the services found on the previous site but we hope you will agree, in a far more user friendly way. As is ever the case with web sites, we will continue to develop this site over the next few months.

With regard to SGU Golf Central, we have developed a new look SGU Golf Central which can be found at the new SGU web either by clicking on the SGU Golf Central logo on the home page or via the Play the Game menu. The new look SGU Golf Central will perform all of the key features seen in the previous edition but is intended to be more user friendly and allows more easily for updates to the functionality. For example, we have added the opportunity for clubs to provide a link to their on line tee time booking software (subject to availability), thus giving you the golfer the opportunity to identify those courses with such software and book your golf from your own PC.

One key difference is that you will no longer need to register to use the site. We will now merge our database of SGU Golf Central registered users with our other database of registered golfers meaning that you will continue to receive news and special offers from the SGU. Importantly, as has always been the case, you can un-subscribe from this database at any time.

Thank you for your ongoing support of SGU Golf Central and we look forward to delivering additional value via this vital web portal
