Dear golf course owners and operators,
Following the latest government announcements, the Standing Committee of the Québec golf industry continues to update preventive measures to be implemented in golf clubs in connection with the COVID-19 pandemic.
In combination with the changes that were announced in the communication of June 10, 2020, certain preventive measures may be withdrawn beginning on June 22.
However, the basic measures to protect your customers and employees must still remain in place. They are:
- Physical distancing.
- Hand hygiene and respiratory etiquette.
- Maintaining sanitization measures for frequently touched tools, equipment and surfaces.
As a result, the following services can now be offered/opened,
however their availability is left to the golf club's discretion:
Allowed providing that preventive measures are respected:
- Access to administrative offices for clients.
Allowed providing that preventive measures are respected, but are not currently recommended
by the government
as the risk of transmission of the virus is greater with these activities:
- Locker rooms and showers (sanitary facilities).
- Golf bag storage for members.
- Shoe and club cleaning services for members.
For locker rooms and showers, physical distancing must be ensured at all times as well as sanitization of surfaces. When storing bags and cleaning shoes and golf clubs, the protection of employees and hand washing between handling of each piece of equipment will be paramount to avoid contamination and transmission of the virus. No client will be allowed access to the storage areas.
