Please note that with effect from Sunday 1 November 2009, both (a) tee time cancellations through the week and (b) changes to weekday bookings must be made no later than 4:30 pm TWO days preceding the date of play.
For example, players wishing to cancel or make changes to a Wednesday tee-time must do so by calling the automated tee time booking system at 2791 3380 at or before 4:30 pm on the preceding Monday. Otherwise, the cancellation will be considered as Late Cancellation, or the change will not be accepted.
The above new regulations are introduced in order to allow sufficient time for the take up of cancelled tee times by golfers wishing to play golf and reduce the loss of tee times through cancellation.
To allow golfers time to adjust to the new regulations, a
two-month grace period will be allowed during which time penalties would be
waived. As from 1 January 2010, the new regulations as stated above will be
strictly enforced.

Hong Kong golf course becomes first golf course in the world to use solar-cell technology by SolarDrive to power its entire golf car fleet
The solar-cell roof panels, which have been fitted to the course’s existing 205 Club Car fleet, were designed and engineered by SolarDrive, a Denmark-based firm specialising in off-grid, solar technology for mobile use, and distributed in Hong Kong by its founding partner Vedbaek Concepts Ltd.
The initiative makes The Jockey Club Kau Sai Chau Public Golf Course the first golf course in the world, to have adopted SolarDrive’s highly efficient solar technology for their entire fleet of golf carts and the largest fleet in the world to be powered by such technology. This solar project is the course’s latest commitment to responsible environmental management of its operations. Indeed, the initiative comes only a few months after the Hong Kong course received official recognition for its environmental program as winners of the prestigious ‘Asian Golf Course Environment Award.’
The SolarDrive equipped golf carts are able to capture and convert daylight into sufficient energy to power golf carts year-round, even on cloudy days. Furthermore, as the carts charge whilst being driven, they are more efficient and can out-perform their battery-powered counterparts. By investing in SolarDrive’s state-of-the-art technology, it is estimated that the golf course will reduce carbon emissions by up to 30 tonnes per year as a result of the reduced power consumption requirements of the fleet.
The solar panel roofs, capable of being retrofitted to any make of electric golf cart, not only provide environmental savings by facilitating carbon emission free charging and driving, but will also lead to significant financial savings for the course. It is estimated that the consumption of grid electricity for the fleet will be reduced by between 50-75% and that the cars’ battery life will be virtually doubled. Savings from the extended battery life alone is expected to result in annual savings of approximately $387,500HKD ($50,000USD) across the fleet.
Mr Peter Randow, Managing Partner of SolarDrive commented: “We really are very honoured to have had the opportunity to assist Kau Sai Chau in their pioneering efforts to raise environmental standards in golf course management.
He added: “This deal is a major milestone for SolarDrive and we are confident that more courses both in Asia and around the world will look to adopt this technology thanks to the positive effect that it can have on both their environmental credentials and their bottom line.”
Mr Cameron N Halliday, General Manager at The Jockey Club Kau Sai Chau Public Golf Course added: “Our partnership with SolarDrive during its design evolution has resulted in a product that will enable us to further cut our carbon emissions, reflecting our ongoing commitment to implement new and innovative solutions that will help make our golf course as environmentally friendly as possible. They have provided us with what we believe is a smart solution that makes both environmental sense and good business sense too.”
The SolarDrive project at Kau Sai Chau is part of an innovative USD45 million city-wide Environment Project initiated by The Hong Kong Jockey Club Charities Trust in response to the pressing issues of global warming and climate change. The Environment Project is also spearheading environmental awareness in the marine sector with its funding of the replacement of the Golf Course’s existing diesel ferry service to a solar hybrid powered fleet from mid 2010.
The Hong Kong Jockey Club’s Executive Director, Charities, Mr William Y Yiu, notes that “concern for the environment has been at the fore in managing operations since the facilities first opened to the public in 1995 and it was very encouraging to see this latest Charities Trust initiated project assist the Golf Course in its ongoing efforts to improve the environmental management across all areas of the operation.”
30 December 2008
The Jockey Club Kau Sai Chau Public Golf Course at Sai Kung has been honoured with the inaugural Asian Golf Course Environment Award, while its East Course has been named "Best New Golf Course in Asia" in the annual award scheme organised by Asian Golf Monthly magazine, the region's leading golf industry publication. The awards recognise the efforts made by the course management company to create an environmentally-friendly golf course offering top-class services to the public.
The Asian Golf Course Environment Award was added for the first time this year to recognise courses that have made great efforts to protect the environment. A judging panel comprising the publishers and environmental experts selected the winner based on criteria such as water quality management, biodiversity, energy saving and chemicals reduction. The Jockey Club Kau Sai Chau Public Golf Course received acclaim from the judges on all counts.
Meanwhile, the new East Course, which opened in April this year, was voted "Best New Golf Course in Asia" in a poll of the publication's readers.
The Jockey Club Kau Sai Chau Public Golf Course has been built and operated with a strong commitment to environmental protection. In 2005,it became only the fifth course in Asia and the first anywhere in China to beclassified as a Certified Audubon Cooperative Sanctuary for Wildlife,recognising its high standards of environmental management. During the planning and construction of the East Course a number of environmental measures were proactively implemented, including a closed drainage system, protection of sensitive streams and the restoration of eroded slopes. Further new ground will be broken in late 2009 when solar-hybrid powered boats are introduced on the ferry service between the Golf Course and SaiKung pier to help save fuel, cut emission and reduce marine pollution.
The Hong Kong Jockey Club's Executive Director, Charities, Mr William Y Yiu, notes that concern for the environment has been at the fore in managing operations since the facilities opened to the public in 1995 and that it was very encouraging to see the latest awards recognizing the efforts of the Golf Course in environmental management and promotion of the game of golf in Hong Kong.
