Dear Secret Valley Golf Club Member,
We have attempted to obtain clarification as to whether it is permissible for our members who reside outside of the Paphos district to play golf at SVGR over the remaining week of the current lockdown.
The advice we have received from KOA, the Department of Health and CGF is at best, confusing and does not provide us with a precise ruling.
We have therefore concluded that our members who do not reside in the Paphos region, are welcome to play at SVGR, but do so at their own risk.
The requirement to produce a valid negative rapid antigen test prior to play will continue to apply until at least until the end of the current lockdown period.
The 3-hour travel pass requirement still applies and this requires that we limit play to 9 holes on the loop for the remainder of the current lockdown period.
All other requirements regarding Covid-19 health and safety protocols as set out in my letter dated 27th April will continue to apply until further notice.
Please also note, that the golf academy practice facilities will be closed until the end of the current lockdown period.
I again apologise for the inconvenience. However, we are committed to the safety of our members, guests and staff by complying as best we can with all government mandated protocols.
We are expecting an announcement from the government later next week as to protocol changes as from 10th May, and of course I will keep you informed as soon as we receive that advice.
Happy Easter and stay safe
Peter Copping
General Manager
