We have a very active ladies' section and are proud to boast over 100 lady members.
Our ladies' competitions are played on most Sunday's and every Wednesday. During the summer months, Business ladies usually end the day with a meal and a glass of wine.
We hold regular roll-up sessions on a Sunday and Friday morning, when any lady member; whether you have a handicap or not, can roll-up and play with other lady members. This is an ideal way to get to know other lady members and have some fun at the same time.
For those ladies who like to compete, we also hold ladies' individual, pairs and mixed, knock out competitions.

Juniors Section
Here at Davyhulme Park we have a very active Junior section
Our Junior section welcomes girls and boys from the age of 8 up to 18 years, to come and join us in what is an exceptionally worthwhile and character building sport.
Never tried golf? Not got any clubs but fancy trying the game? We can help!
Why not pop along and speak to our professional, Martyn, or his assistant, who will be only too pleased to introduce you to the game. We might even be able to lend you some clubs so you can try the game.
With Junior membership starting from as little as £70 for the year, it is also a very affordable sport.
Junior competitions are played on Sundays unless the Junior team is playing away and this clashes with the Junior competition.
Members Information
Obtaining a Handicap
A new handicap is obtained by submission of 3 DPGC cards to the Handicaps committee; the rounds played under R & A rules. The same result may also be achieved by submission of 6 9-hole cards.
Each card must display the following:
● The date of completion.● A legible name and signature of the competitor.● A legible name and signature of the marker.
Where possible the marker should be a member of long standing.
Completed cards may be posted in the box provided on the upstairs bar or handed to a member of the Handicaps Committee
FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH THE ABOVE WILL INVALIDATE THE CARD YOU SUPPLY.
In the event that the new member has previously been a member of another club, a recent handicap certificate from their previous club will suffice or alternatively details of your England Golf CDH number and previous club.Maintaining a Handicap
Handicaps for all sections of DPGC (Ladies & Gentlemen) may be maintained by any one of the methods detailed below:
a) Entrance to and completion of either a Men's or Ladies normal medal competition.
b) Submission Supplementary scores following the advised procedure under Supplementary scores within
"Inactive Handicaps" Max 10 per year.
c) Entry to a competition of scores for any of the "Qualifying" Mid-Week Competitions, these are open to all classes of membership, including Ladies, Men, Junior, 5 Day & 6 Day Members together with all Full Members.Inactive Handicaps
A member's handicap will become 'Inactive' if he/she fails to complete 3 recorded medal rounds during a calendar year.
Should your handicap become 'Inactive' you will need to submit 3 scores to the Committee. There are two ways of doing this:
1. Complete a Supplementary Score(s) - Advise the Professional before you tee off and have him enter your intention in the file he has for this purpose. Complete your round (at DPGC), your card should be completed as advised for a new handicap above. Return your card to the Committee
2. Play during a Sat. Competition - An 'Inactive' handicap member may play on a Saturday in a normal competition, without payment of entry fee and may not win prizes/trophies in said competition but his score will count towards removal of his inactive status
3. Please retain your card and return to the committee as soon as possibleCompetition Entry
Entry to a normal Saturday competition is by ticket draw, some 11 days before the event, on a Tuesday evening at approximately 19:45 unless advised otherwise.
A drawn member may append 3 names during the summer season but may apply 4 names during the winter season when 4 Ball events are more the norm.
There are several groups within the membership entitled to have their names added to the start sheet prior to a draw, these comprise Council & Committee members, Board members and those who advise before the draw they are unable to attend due to, representing the club in league competitions or they are away on holiday. In all these circumstances, accommodations will be made if deemed possible by the Handicaps Committee.
Draws for Captain and President Weekends are drawn on a Tuesday evening approximately 3 weeks before the event. Again at 19:45. The specific dates are shown on the annual Fixture List. Entry to these 2 major competitions is subject to conditions agreed with the Captain and President and posted on notice boards well prior to the draws being made.
Men's Invitation Days, of which there are currently 2 (Spring & Summer) do not have draws. The sheets for both are posted for entry early in the season to allow members the maximum amount of time to make arrangements with their partners. The format for these are 4 Ball Better Ball Stablefords (90% Handicap Allowance) involving sequential tee times as shown on the entry sheets.
Once booking sheets have been posted on the notice board, members may add their names to any blank space.Mid Week Competitions (Medals or Stablefords)

Failure to record your intention with the Professional will invalidate your entry and failure to return your card will incur the usual penalty. (1 Match Ban)

The competitions will be handicap qualifying events unless otherwise stated. They are managed by the Professional and his staff and recorded against the members playing record.

There are 4 Bank holiday competitions. These are currently played on a Monday with a 1st tee start the start times available will be shown on the booking sheet. The booking sheets are posted on either of the downstairs notice boards in the entrance hall approx. 3 weeks before the event. The format varies but is invariably in teams of 4.
Where information regarding dining arrangements is shown it would be appreciated if, to assist our caterer in forward planning, members indicate the number of diners for a given event and where applicable their choice from the menu.

In addition to the normal competition entry fee, non-members must pay the appropriate accompanied green fee for the day.Ladies Day
This takes place annually as a shotgun start at approx. 13:45. Ladies invite the gentlemen. Lady Captain decides upon the format and the number of prizes to be presented. The prizes are usually more significant for the Ladies. The event follows a Gents 4 BBB competition in the morning.
Dining is set to follow the event with details shown next to the entry sheet on the applicable notice board.Slow Play
It is important players are aware of their obligations under the Etiquette of Golf,
We should all attempt to keep up with the group in front. If you are unable to do this, you should invite the group behind you to play through.
The Rules of Golf state you may take 5 minutes looking for a ball before it is deemed lost.
This does not mean holding up following players for that time. If it becomes evident that a ball will not be found easily, following players should be invited to play through sooner.
Please note, earlier in this document is the penalty for failure to observe this important point of etiquette. The game of golf is meant to be enjoyed by all and not result in frustration for the majority.
