BC Amateur At Storey Creek Is A Go!
With the announcement of Phase 1-4 protocols announced by the Public Health Office on May 25, 2021, BC Golf is moving forward on two major tournaments on Vancouver Island...
Cross your fingers but it looks like there will be tournament golf at both Storey Creek and Gorge Vale this summer.
On their website, BC Golf states: “Our Championships will be conducted using COVID-19 protocols unless changes happen with provincial guidelines. Barring any unforeseen circumstances, we are planning on allowing caddies (where applicable) and spectators at all of our events this season... (But) we are not accepting any registrations from out-of-province players in 2021. We hope to be able to welcome everyone back in 2022!”
