Geocache Description:

To have your chance of winning the Geocache Open Championship Claret Jug, you must first complete a round of 9 caches, each located close to a Wirral golf course.

This is one of these caches, close to Wallasey G C. It contains two ‘hole cards’, which provide the hole number, name, distance, par and the shots taken (in golfing terms eg birdie). Enter these details on to your scorecard as you will need them for the tenth and final cache – “The Open - Royal Liverpool GC : The Claret Jug”. This cache also contains another information card with vital information that you will need for this final cache.

The above co-ordinates are NOT of the cache. The cache can be found at N 53 25.UUU W 003 05.VVV. You will only be able to find this cache after visiting 2 of the first 6 caches in this series. Track your progress on this chart.
