On June 4th, Alberta released an update to the Guidance for Golf Course and Driving Range Operators. Some of the new recommendations include the following points:
Power cart rentals should be used by one individual only, unless being shared by members of the same household or both individuals to wear masks
Power carts may carry two sets of golf clubs; golfers should maintain appropriate distancing when accessing the bags
These new recommendations clarify the ongoing question by golf courses on whether 2 golfers are allowed on one cart. The previous guidelines used language such as ‘must’ when referring to single rider carts where it now references ‘should’. Based on the new guidelines, we are recommending that golf courses adapt a clear policy that suits their facility and is in compliance with the government safety protocols.
