POLICE had to be called after a group of youths disrupted a Bolton golf club's match.
Up to 30 teenagers invaded the Lostock course, where members of the Regent Park Club were trying to hold their championship final night.
Police were called to the incident, which happened at the club, off Chorley New Road, at 8.20pm on Friday.
A police spokesman said: "We had reports of a disturbance involving up to 30 youths who were attacking golfers. No one reported an assault.
"Officers went to disperse the group, but the teenagers had already started to make their way off the green."
It is believed the confrontation between the youths and golfers took place at the 13th tee.
A resident, who lives in Regent Road, which is next to the golf club, said it was not the first time there had been problems at the club. "It looks like there was a clash between the golfers and the youths and police arrived to sort out the problem," she said.
"The kids were drinking and being rowdy, which has been a problem for some time, but it came to a head on Friday night.
