Chelsea Tee Time System
|
|
Pelican Sound uses the Chelsea Tee Time system to request and book tee times. It is an automated system which may be accessed via phone, website or the touch screens located in the hallway near the golf shop and in the ladies and men's lounges.This system is an excellent tool in creating equitable tee time allocation for all our members.
The golf season is divided into two distinct time frames. The first, “Season”, is generally from November through April. The second, “Summer”, is generally from May through October. During Season it is required that all tee time requests and bookings be made through Chelsea. During the summer, members may use Chelsea to secure tee times; however, it is not required as play/requests are generally very low. Summer also includes reciprocal play at area clubs during the months from May through October (see the Golf Shop Staff for more information).
Chelsea is available to our members 7 days a week, 24 hours a day! Each day the system is shut down for processing from 5:00 p.m.- 5:30 p.m.. If you attempt to reach Chelsea during this time, you will hear a busy tone (via phone) or the website will not open (via computer). Please make a note of this when planning to make your tee time requests.
The Golf Shop is open year round for your convenience:
Season (Oct.-April) Daily 7:00 a.m.- 5:30 p.m.
Summer (May-Sept.) 7:00 a.m.- 4:00 p.m.
Tuesday ~ Sunday
The golf course, practice area and golf shop are closed on Mondays.

Golf Course Etiquette
Please rake sand traps, fill divots, repair ball marks on greens,
and always leave the golf course in better condition than you found it!
The golf course is reserved for golfers only.
This rule is to protect residents and guests from the dangers associated with a golf course, such as errant golf shots, maintenance vehicles and chemical applications applied to the course.
If you are not playing golf, you should not be on the golf course.
This includes jogging, ball-hawking, dog-walking and any other non-golf activity on the course.

| Pace of Play |
Please help us maintain a reasonable pace of play and tee time schedule by doing the following:
Arrive at the golf course and check in a minimum of fifteen minutes before your tee time.
Be ready with water, towels and other supplies when the starter calls you to the tee.
Play should be an average of 14 minutes per hole.
This is a 9-hole pace of two hours and six minutes, or an 18-hole round of four hours and twelve minutes.
Try to keep up with the group in front of you, not ahead of the group behind you.
Minimize your search for lost golf balls.
