Changes to The Glasgow Herald Club Golf Service

From this week, it will not be possible to send your club returns using the Glasgow Herald club golf email address or 0800 number. From now on results will continue to appear in the Glasgow Herald but they will have come to them via their new Club Golf Website. www.theherald.co.uk/clubgolf
The site has just started and I have put a link to it on this West of Scotland website so that you can access the results from here.
Previously you could send me a copy of your results that you sent to the Herald but this is obviously changing.
There appears to be lots of teething problems at the moment and if you have problems with the site then you can email them at clubgolf@theherald.co.uk
Hopefully in the long term you will be able to access all results across the West of Scotland and even more
