Dubai: Arabian Ranches Golf Club is now accepting entries for the annual Prime Travel Ladies Inter-Team Golf Day to be held on Saturday, February 23, with a 1pm shotgun start.

The event is a four player all ladies team competition with the best 2 from 4 Stableford scores counting for the team score on each hole with - handicap allowance and play from the Red Tee Course.

Early entries have been received from Emirates Golf Club, The Montgomerie, Dubai, Dubai Creek Golf and Yacht Club, Abu Dhabi Golf Club and a particularly impressive entry from the growing ladies section of the home Club.

However, all team members do not have to be from the same Golf Club - they just have to have an official handicap.
