Management Priorities This Week

Golf Operations Deliver the Seniors Competition, Ladies 4 Club Competition and Fred Clissett Cup to a high standard. Ensure excellent hosting for the Ladies 1st Team match and both visiting golf societies.
Hospitality & Events The main operational pressure falls on Friday and Saturday. Multiple events require careful room planning, catering coordination and efficient turnarounds.
Facilities & Presentation Maintain high standards across the clubhouse, bar, West Wing, terrace and external areas, with particular focus on Friday and Saturday.
Customer Experience Ensure members, visiting golfers, families and private function guests all receive a friendly, professional Brynhill welcome.

Key Watch-Outs

Monday: West Wing is closed. Please ensure members are aware where appropriate.
Thursday: Ladies 1st Team match followed by a late 9:00pm team meal.
Friday: Society golf, private wake, society meal and private party all on the same day. Careful room turnaround and coordination required.
Saturday: 39-player Morriston society followed by catering for 39 and then a 70-person private meal at 6:30pm. This is likely to be the busiest hospitality day of the week.
Sunday: Ensure the clubhouse is fully reset following Saturday evening before the Fred Clissett Cup and Sunday Lunch.
