We too miss the sound of laughter, cheers and jeers amongst friends.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>As we have mastered the new way we play, we urge you to be patient with; making bookings (demand is greater than it ever has been for desired times) and round times.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>There is a real balance between servicing the voracious demand&nbsp; to play and being able to satisfy the wish to fly around the course in two and a half hours.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Yes, you will need to wait. But. You are in the sunshine playing golf! Relax and enjoy it, golf has been a lifeline for so many in this time of uncertainty. In <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">most<\/span> cases, complaining won&#8217;t make it faster. The course is simply at capacity. We get that there is congestion in all of the usual places. There will be.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>We have made the decision to service as many of you as possible and have the shortest interval between tee times in industry. Most advice is minimum 6mins, most are playing 7-8mins.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>So here is the balance.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Yesterday we had 142 comp rounds, a total of 210 players plus 10 no shows. We would have had 220 players in pairs. Not bad. If we were to increase intervals to 7 mins, you would lose a third of tee times. Ie. More than 45 comp players and more than 70 players over all.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>So ask yourself, what should it be? More of you playing or lightning quick rounds? Yes, we thought so too.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Thanks to those who have been understanding and I hope that this message may give perspective to those who didn&#8217;t understand why you were waiting. Unfortunately, it is a math equation with answers no one likes.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Best, TL..&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Morning Members Another week has passed and you have all been successfully handling spatial requirements and the frustrating limitations on&#8230;<\/p>\n<div class=\"read-more-gradient\"><a href=\"https:\/\/linkshopeisland.miclub.com.au\/cms\/2020\/04\/balancing-demand-and-round-times\/\" class=\"more-link\" title=\"Read More\">Read More <i class=\"fa fa-chevron-right\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><\/a><\/div>","protected":false},"author":20,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories":[16],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-7131","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-club-news"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.9 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Balancing demand and round times. - Links Golf &amp;
