Seniors Winter League Round 6 March 21st 2017


Cliff Evans sent the following report.........Out of a field of 43  today, 38 entered in the two's competition with only one achieving a two,  on the 5th hole Mr.Frank Rodenhurst


Thanks to Steve Monk for the following report.....

The final round of the Seniors Winter League was held today in sunny but windy and quite cold conditions. The game was disrupted by the seasonal necessity of hollow-tining of the greens, but green-keeping staff did their best to keep as many greens playable as they could. The 2nd hole was closed throughout, but the 17th and 18th holes were open for early players (starting from the 14th or 16th tees) but not for later players (starting from the 1st tee). Additionally, the 16th hole was initially fully available but later on, only in a shortened version with a temporary green.
Committee members present collectively decided that it would be unfair to award kitty competition prizes on the day, because different groups of players played a different set of holes or different hole lengths. All members present agreed to donate the collected kitty to Section Funds. However, by taking scores from Holes 1 to 16 only (excluding the closed Hole 2) and taking into account the fact that the only 4 players present who had enough league points to still win the overall title all played together, and thus all played an identical course, it was concluded that it was appropriate and fair to allow the results achieved to stand for the purpose of allocating league points only.

43 players competed. Results were:

1st - 10 points - Frank Rodenhurst with a score of 30.

2nd - 9 points - Nick Lee with 29.

3rd - 8 points - Harold Hughes with 27.

4th - 7 points - John Davis with 26.

5th - 6 points - Stewart Poole with 25.

6th - 5 points - Dave Palferman with 25.

7th - 4 points - Steve Monk with 25.

8th - 3 points - Malcolm Williams with 25.

9th - 2 points - Brian Downes with 24.


10th - 1 point - Richard Key with 23.

The final positions in the Winter League will be posted soon
