The Board of the Central NJ Chapter is continually monitoring updated recommendations from our National office as well as the Governor’s office on COVID-19.   Please visit this website often for updates.

Based on current guidelines, we are cancelling all events planned for May.  Our rescheduled Tee-Off event at Knob Hill on June 20^th will likely be cancelled and we are currently reviewing viability of holding golf events planned for late June.   We have also been in contact with the golf courses where our leagues were planned.  Several courses have determined that having league play this year will not be viable and so these leagues will be suspended for the 2020 season.  As updates are available we will be sending out email updates as qwell as posting updates to the website.

As you return to the play, please keep in mind the current guidelines regarding golf course operations as outlined on the COVID-19NJ.gov website:

• Implementing electronic or telephone reservation and payment systems while still providing options for populations that do not have access to internet service or credit cards;
• Extending tee times to sixteen minutes apart;
• Limiting the use of golf carts to one person unless being shared by immediate family members, caretakers, household members, or romantic partners;
• Requiring frequent, and after each use, sanitization of high-touch areas such as restroom facilities, range buckets, golf carts, and push carts; • Restricting the touching of golf holes and flags;
• Closing golf center buildings, pro shops, and other buildings and amenities;
• Removing bunker rakes and other furniture-like benches, water coolers, and ball washers from the course; • Discontinuing club and equipment rentals;
• Prohibiting the use of caddies;
• Limiting tee times to two players unless the foursome consists of immediate family, caretakers, household members or romantic partners; and
• Requiring players to always maintain appropriate social distancing by remaining six feet apart from others.

Golf courses may impose additional restrictions as necessary to limit person-to-person interactions.
