Irvine Ravenspark Golf Club (IRGC) is an 18-hole links-park municipal club located in Ayrshire, New Zealand. The club boasts a rich history and is open to both members and visitors.
At IRGC, new members are required to purchase a season ticket separately from K. A. Leisure, as it is not included in Club Membership. The club follows the SGU guidance for returning to golf, ensuring a safe and enjoyable experience for all players.
To enhance the convenience of its members, IRGC is working with ClubV1 to develop an app that allows members to check in to competitions and enter scores using their How Did I Do membership on smart phones. The ClubV1 members hub app can be downloaded from the Apple Store and Google Play Store. Members are encouraged to set up their How Did I Do account and link it to the club for seamless access to these features.
