The Southern 9 Hole Network is a group of like-minded 9 hole clubs that have teamed up to offer a fantastic no cost membership benefit. Full bona fide members of participating clubs will be entitled to play on one occasion per year at each of the clubs within the scheme.
The idea behind the scheme is for participating clubs to utilise the ‘free available’ tee times they have by offering them on a reciprocal basis to other scheme participants, creating a mutual benefit to the clubs and their members. Participating members are advised that the idea is for members to have the opportunity to play golf ‘away ‘from their own club on a free basis that works for both the clubs and their members that use that course. The agreement should be used within the appropriate parameters of the goodwill that exists between the clubs.
Newport Golf is an affiliated member of the Southern 9 Hole Network and as such you are entitled to play a number of courses FREE OF CHARGE as part of a reciprocal arrangement.
The courses currently included in the network are:
Ryde GC, Isle of Wight https://www.rydegolfclub.co.uk/
