Middletown Country Club, in conjunction with recommendations from Middletown Township and local Bucks County officials, has decided to close operations for the time. Governor Wolf has classified golf courses as “non-essential” businesses, so we had no choice but to close. We will follow all directives given by the state and the CDC as to when we will reopen. We will update our status as it changes. We wish everyone good health and safety as we fight the spread of COVID-19. We will all get through this together. We have some big things in store for 2020 at Middletown, including two new greens, new carts, and a “part time” driving range. Members of our maintenance team are still at work because they fall under the “agriculture” designation by the state. We look forward to the day when we can see our golfers back on our course.

Middletown Country Club is paying extremely close attention to information from the CDC and the government regarding the COVID-19 coronavirus as well as cleaning and safety instructions. We are doing our part to clean our facility to ensure the safety and well being of our guests. Middletown Country Club will remain open at this time, unless the situation changes and mandates come from authorities. We want you to know that our guests safety and good health is the top priority of our staff. Our team is also making sure with our limited staff right now that we are following all proper guidelines to make sure our health is of top quality. We thank you for your support and wish everyone good health and best wishes during this ordeal. We will get through this together.

Dear Members of our Swim Club,  

         Thank you to all of our members for your support and membership in Middletown Country Club’s pool activities. Given the substantial needs for repair, renovation, and/or replacement of the pool, we are very sorry to inform you that the Middletown Country Club pool will not open this spring/summer of 2020. The pool is over 60 years old. We considered multiple alternatives, including replacing the pool completely. Unfortunately, none of the alternatives are feasible. We have communicated with Middletown Township staff members regarding the alternatives and this decision. We will continue to communicate with the township regarding the pool and the grounds and any plans for the future. We have reached out to local swim clubs and here are some options and incentives:

Middletown Country Club will once again participate in the nation-wide Patriot Golf Day to support the Folds of Honor Foundation.  An active host course  since 2008, Middletown will add $1 to all greens fees from Friday, August 31st through Monday (Labor Day) September 3rd.  All dollars raised during this time will be donated directly to the Folds of Honor Foundation.  FOH was founded by PGA Professional and retired F-16 fighter pilot Major Dan Rooney, a veteran of three tours of duty in Iraq.  Rooney created FOH to raise money for scholarships that are given to children and spouses of military servicemen and women who have been killed or founded in service to our country.  Nearly 95% of military dependents do not qualify for federal education assistance.  Since 2007, Folds of Honor has awarded 16,000 scholarships.  However, the need is still great.  Just by playing a round of golf, you are making a difference.  “Patriot Golf Day is just a small way to say thank you to the 1% that defend the very blanket of freedom that we, the 99% of our country’s citizens, sleep under every night”, said Middletown PGA Professional Dan Hoban. “As the son of a deceased Vietnam veteran, this cause is not only something involved in golf, it is a very personal one.”

Did you want to join a golf league but could not commit to a full season?  We now have the answer for you with our new Thursday “Short Season” League, a two-man team league that will use a modified Stableford scoring system. 

Tee Times: 4-5:30 PM each week

Schedule: 1^st 2 Weeks (6/7 and 6/21, OFF for outing 6/14) establish handicaps

8 Week Regular Season (6/21-8/16)

Playoffs: 2 Weeks elimination style (8/23-8/30)

Format: Two-man teams in a Modified Stableford system.

 Double Bogey= 1 point  Bogey= 2 points  Par= 3 points  Birdie= 3 points  Eagle/Ace= 4 points

Both players on a team will compete against another team of two players each week. The total number of points earned by a team against the other team’s total points will determine the winner each week. Handicaps will be adjusted each week.  A players’ handicap will be up one point for every plus 3, 5, or 7 points.  If a player is -3 points or worse, his handicap will drop one point.  The more points the better in this format.     

League Registration Fee: $30 per team member per player

Weekly Golf and Cart (9 Holes): $30

(Included in registration and weekly fees will be weekly prizes for closest to the pins and other contests, a league tee gift, and a season ending banquet.)
