Up to 40 teams of eight players will be participating in this year's twilight golf competition, which runs throughout the daylight savings period.

Plenty of the usual suspects mixed in with a few newcomers will take to the course for the first time from Monday.

No rounds will be allowed until then.

Post last season the golf course has and is still undertaking the implementation of a brand new fully automated Irrigation system.

The expected completion time is this month, so there's possibly going to be a few minor hole interruptions in the first few rounds, but nothing players can't work around.

Overall Champions from last season Swig n Swing will be out to defend their title, Balls Deep will look to improve on a lack luster attendance rating, Guns n Roses looking to go to the next level, Murrami Magic, Superwash Mates and the Munchausen's will be relatively unchanged and a few ins.

The Fairway Men will need to do a fair bit of improvement in attendance if they are going to figure late in the season.

Two new junior squads will also be part of the competition.

"The first made up of some sub 12-year-old future stars and the second some high school-aged lads," Leeton golf professional Jason Mimmo said.

"A brand spanking new girls team will also debut, look for them to be around the top in the early going.

"There are always teams needing new players too, so if you want a game and haven't got a spot give (me) a call at the pro shop."

The purple tee markers after their successful introduction last year will again be available for new players.

The markers are forward toward the start of each par four and five, and handicaps will be adjusted back to the par of 36 to keep the contest fair.

All holes on the course now have purple markers except the par threes where the reds will be used.

The rules have remained relatively unchanged, but the competition is encouraging the new "flag can stay in option" as it makes for a faster round.

Green fees for the season are $10 juniors, $15 members and $20 non-members.

Golfers who put a round in with the regular club competition its only an extra $5.

Individual registration is $15 for the season and is to be paid when playing the first game.

Team captains and those on the email list will receive copies of the rules, which will also be available in the "twilight golf" section of the Leeton Golf club website.

Any further inquiries can be directed to Mimmo at the pro shop on 6953 3292.
