Lake Balls
UK Lake Balls, a successful and rapidly growing Lancashire company, specialising
in providing the market with carefully graded and selected 'Lake Balls' at the
lowest UK prices, is expanding its services. This is a 'cost free' operation that
is designed to benefit all golf courses.
Organised night visitors regularly and without authority, 'remove' large
quantities of balls from clubs countrywide. It has been estimated that a minimum
of 10 million golf balls are 'lost' per year. UK Lake Balls objective
is to work with golf clubs to eradicate these problems as far as possible and
protect the reputable 'lake ball' companies. Participating clubs will
see an end to 'night raids', which can prevent costly damage to lake edges, and
actually receive payment for each ball retrieved. Professional 'divers'
only will be used, carrying personal insurance and additional cover for the
clubs. All approved teams are specialists that operate from within the
lakes. This avoids damage to the surrounding areas caused by 'dredging' -
a system generally used by children and many night teams to retrieve lost
balls. Frequently this is as crude as wire shopping baskets tied to the end of
ropes and thrown in to dredge the lake bottom. Diving teams will visit
participating clubs on a three week cycle, at times agreed, to clear the lakes
of lost balls and remove any debris that may have been deposited.
Professional signs will be put in the lakes advising that UK Lake Balls are the
authorised retrievers and that the lake(s) is cleared every three weeks. Any unauthorised
visitors will quickly appreciate that their efforts are not going to be worthwhile.
The single biggest bonus is that UK Lake Balls will pay clubs for each ball
they recover - irrespective of condition. UK Lake Ball's message to every
Golf Club is quite clear - 'Don't lose your balls - we will pay you for them'.
