GUIDANCE FOR GOLF DURING COVID-19How we are keeping you safe to enjoy the game

WELCOME BACK

We are delighted to be able to share the world-class courses of Quinta do Lago with you again. We know how important it is to our members to be able to enjoy an active, social lifestyle in the pure and natural destination of our resort and just how much a round of golf in the fresh air can

support our wellbeing, now more than ever.

That being said, we want you to know that we are taking every precaution to ensure that our community and staff are kept safe, and the health of our community remains our absolute priority.

Therefore, our gradual reopening will be paced and monitored in line with Government and world health advice, and we ask our members to be respectful, diligent and mindful of the precautions

and measures we have in place.

Closely following the recommendation of national health authorities, these Guidelines have been prepared by our team in consultation with the Portuguese Golf Federation, PGA Portugal,

Greenkeepers Association and the Association of Golf Managers in Portugal.

In line with the gradual lifting of social restrictions, our measures and guidelines will remain under continuous review and updated as advice from Government and leading public health bodies.

Thank you for your continued support and cooperation.From all of us here, welcome back to Quinta do Lago.
