COVID-19 Update – Essential Maintenance Statement for Golf Courses during COVID-19 Outbreak

COVID-19 Update – Advice for greens staff

Following last night’s announcement, Scottish Golf has been working with partners from across the golf industry to seek further information from the Government on guidance for greens staff.

Scottish Golf has today received the following advice from the UK Government’s Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport:

  • For security and essential maintenance purposes, greenkeeping staff can still attend work.
  • All work must be carried out in strict accordance with government guidelines on social distancing.

We are aware that this is an uncertain time and would like thank you for your understanding during this ever-changing situation. Scottish Golf will continue to provide further updates in response to COVID-19 on our dedicated website page here.
