Soka stressed that they will keep the golf course Open for members and Zanzibar residents for them to practice, but they will adjusted their times.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe will open the course for residents only, but proper social distancing is prioritised,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

Soka noted that the first tee off for the practice round will be at 8Am, while the last tee off is set for 3Pm.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe course is strictly for nine holes only, and all tee times must be booked in advance,\u201d said Soka.<\/p>\n

The club manager however, added that driving range will close at 4pm for those who would like to practice there.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe wish you and your loved ones good health during these difficult times,\u201d said Soka.<\/p>\n
