GOLFERS who are not members of a club now have the chance to use the facilities at a number of top East Lancashire golf clubs.

Golf England has set up the Associate Member scheme, which allows golfers who are not members to use certain courses - and secure a handicap.

The clubs in East Lancashire that have already signed up are Bacup, Mytton Fold and Whalley with several more expected to join.

For just £48 a year (£4 a month), Golf England's Associate member scheme offers

Access to hundreds of the country's courses with discounts at selected

clubs

A membership card which can carry an official EGU/ELGA Associate member handicap

Two free vouchers each giving two green fees for the price of one and a saving of up to £70

A FREE CD Rom containing interactive golf lessons

A FREE quarterly magazine

and much more.

For more information contact Golf England on 0870 243 2343 or at www.golfengland.com.

To promote their new Associate Member scheme, Golf England are giving away three sets of personalised golf balls - 15 balls per set worth £17 each.

The balls are the MAXFLI XS TOUR, personalised with the Golf England logo and the winner's name.
