 Golfwatch was launched at Padeswood and Buckley Golf Club on Monday 23rd November 2009.
Golf watch was formed following a small spate of crimes at Golf Clubs earlier this year in Flintshire. Flintshire Neighbourhood Watch Association work closely with North Wales Police and the Community Safety Partnership to enable Flintshire to be a safer place for the residents, workers and visitors to the area.
Allan Ellis, Development Worker at Flintshire Neighbourhood Watch Association says ‘Golfwatch coordinators receive crime prevention information and a marker pen for marking their property. The participating Golf Clubs also have the benefits of OWL (Online Watch Link) alerts, all which help to keep them and their members one step ahead of the opportunist thief, such as resources to code and mark their property.’
OWL (Online Watch Link) is an effective way of getting messages relating to incidents or crimes in the area to coordinators, members and partner agencies. It also has a link to ‘fix my street’ and local amenities. Visit www.owl.co.uk.
 Pc Hazel Goss MBE, Community Safety Officer said that Golfwatch was 'an excellent way of fighting crime and keeping in regular contact with the Golf Clubs warning them of potential crimes that maybe happening in other areas and across neighbouring borders'.
PS Ian Massie, Community Safety Sergeant Eastern Division declared: ‘North Wales Police are pleased to be working in partnership with Flintshire Neighbourhood Watch Association on this exciting initiative aimed at reducing thefts and other incidents within the golfing sector. The aim is to work closely with Golf Clubs and golfers, providing them with the information, education and materials they need to protect their property and prevent incidents occurring.’
Jackie Lee, Project Administrator, said: ‘Flintshire Neighbourhood Watch Association not only has Neighbourhood Watches, we also recognise the need to protect other types of premises for example Schoolwatch, Farmwatch, Shopwatch, Businesswatch and now Golfwatch. We are also looking forward to getting more Golf Clubs joining Golfwatch. If any Golf Club would like to start up a Golf Watch they should contact our office’.
