Sheffield City Trust, who operate Tapton golf course along with a number of other venues in the Sheffield City region, has put in place several safety measures to allow golfers back onto the course.
Sheffield City Trust Chief Executive, Andrew Snelling, said:
“The health and safety of our members and colleagues always remains our top priority, and this means we’ve had to make some small changes to how the game is played.
“These changes will ensure the safety of our members while allowing them to enjoy being back out on the course for the first time in months.
“As the health and wellbeing charity, we’re really excited to reopen Tapton and continue to support people to stay active.
“I want to thank all of our members for remaining patient and understanding throughout this time. I’m sure all of our members will join me in thanking our staff who have been working hard to make sure all of our courses are ready to open.”
