An amusing event was photographed on the 11th hole were Bob Jarvis attempted to cut the corner on the left handside. His ball was found in the hedge unfortunately out of bounds otherwise he might have attempted to play it! Ah...there it is!

St Patricks Day competition March 12th 2013


This popular annual event was this year organised by Peter Almond, Cliff Lloyd and Don Wraight who also managed to organise some lovely sunny weather albeit very cold though!
Some 52 Seniors took part and the event was followed by the usual customary meal in the Club House of stew or chicken followed by a sweet. Colin Brown Seniors Captain presented the prizes.
The format was teams of 4 with all four stableford scores counting. Only one "2" was recorded by John Kelty. The player on the day who scored the highest individual score won the Ray Mortell memorial trophy. This year it went to Dilly Jones one of the members of the winning team. Some videos of a couple of players at end of this page. Have sound on!!
Results as follows:-
In first place Tom McGrady, Reg Peacock, Ron Roberts and Dilly Jones with 132 points
