The below image was found this morning (Wednesday 10th September) on the 10th fairway approximately 80m from the green. 

To leave your course in this condition is not acceptable. 

Members (and their guests) must always carry a sand bucket to repair divots, and you must never play more than 2 balls from a location if practicing on course. 

If members are identified not doing the right thing they may be subjected to disciplinary action.

Practice like this should be limited to the pitching area, where members must also fill in their divots and repair your pitch marks, or the driving range.
