The course is expected to reopen in mid-2024, so mark your calendars!

We also want to keep you in the loop about some recent news from Golf Australia. They've highlighted the importance of clubs reviewing their storage policies due to a series of fires caused by batteries in cart sheds. Safety is a top priority, so many clubs, including esteemed ones like The National, Shepparton, and various Sydney clubs, have stopped on-site charging of batteries for walk-behind carts. Additionally, the Brisbane Golf Club and Eastern Golf Club in Melbourne unfortunately experienced clubhouse fires related to lithium batteries. Safety always comes first, so we'll continue to update you on any future news or events related to this issue.

So there you have it, folks. Don't miss out on the excitement happening at the Burnley Women's Golf Club. Join us for some friendly competition, social events, and a welcoming golfing community. We can't wait to welcome you to our club!
