OK. From golf administration. The practice area north of the lake at the Sarasota facility is split into two areas. The area near the greens is open for individual practice. The flat area where the tees were when the range was operating there is restricted to lessons with a Villages golf pro only. I was told there are signs to that effect posted.

As to losing golf privileges for abuse, I was told that is an option, but has not been used. However, if someone continually persists in using the restricted area after being told not to, losing golf privileges could be a penalty.

Hope this helps.
