1st and 10th Tee Changes: A Decision for Safety

Twin Towns has made the decision to change the location of the 1st and 10th tees due to ongoing safety concerns involving golf balls striking nearby homes.

For some time, residents in these houses have faced the risk of golf balls being hit onto their properties. This has raised legitimate concerns about the safety of residents, visitors and the homes themselves.

The tee changes are intended to reduce the risk of golf balls being hit towards residential properties and create a safer environment for everyone.

While changes to the course may take some adjustment for golfers, safety must remain a priority. Twin Towns believes these changes are a necessary step to address the ongoing issue and help protect the surrounding homes and residents.

We appreciate the understanding and cooperation of all members and golfers as these changes are introduced.
