They say that time is a great healer...
They say time is a great healer - Germans and Austrians now allowed back onto golf course… An English golf club has rewritten its rules to remove a long forgotten ban that dates back to World War 1 that forbids Germans and Austrians from playing on its course. The ban was written in the aftermath of the war that killed nine of its members, and was discovered by a member researching the Filton Club’s history. for its centenary. The 1919 rule reads:” No person of German or Austrian extraction, whether naturalised or not,should not be allowed in the clubhouse or on the course.” The ban was removed after a unanimous vote at the club near Bristol in England.
