A myriad of health and safety protocols have been implemented on and off the course to ensure the best golf experience for visitors in Kamloops. With rounds played in small groups, everyone can enjoy open spaces and easily embrace physical distancing. Courses have increased their sanitation practices and extra precautions have been added such as no rakes currently allowed in the bunkers and permanent flags in place to remove high touch points.
