Competitions are run throughout the playing season on either Saturday or Sunday and there is also a full programme of winter events including the Winter League. All competitions are run under CONGU/LGU rules and entry is open from 19.30 on the Wednesday evening, 10 days prior to the event and is either via the touch screen computer terminal or, if drawn, by posted entry sheet.
For members who wish to play competition during the week, there are also monthly mid-week medal competitions. Also a number of team competitions take place for all categories of player. Gents and Juniors play triangular competitions against Widnes and Runcorn Golf Clubs and there are also inter-club matches for Ladies and Veterans.
There are a number of informal competitions played by various groups throughout the week in which new members are encouraged to participate, as they are an ideal way to meet other members of the club. Normally people just turn-up and play with no prior booking required. If you require any help or information about any of the above, please contact any member of the Match & Handicap Committee listed here:-

The concept of a "throw up" or "roll up" competition, where members come along and meet on the putting green at a given time and throw the balls up or put them in a hat, to select their partners, has long been a tradition at Helsby. To then play a round in a relatively informal manner but nevertheless with a competitive edge, has always been very popular. Most importantly, it offers new members the chance to meet, get to know and play with well established members, and in so doing come to feel much more part of the Helsby scene.
Each "throw up" involves an individual competition and a pairs format with the usual prize pay out on the day. However, to maintain an ongoing interest, some of the entry money will be carried forward to go towards prizes for the best performers on a league basis through the season. The individual Stableford scores from each competition throughout the summer will be recorded and the player with the highest aggregate of the best 10 scores at the end will be declared the "Throw up" League winner.
There will be no limit to how many events anyone plays on but obviously the more they do, the better the chances of improving their top 10 scores. It is hoped that there will have been enough interest (and hence funds) to mark the end of season by holding some sort of "bash" after the last event on the calendar!
The dates are as follows:-
June 6th, 13th, 18th, 20th & 28th
July 2nd, 4th, 18th, 19th, 20th, 23rd, 25th & 30th
August 1st, 8th, 13th & 15th
September 6th, 21st & 27th
Meet on the Putting Green at 5,15pm for weekday matches and 1.00pm for weekend matches.cker Room notice board.:
