Report on Kitty Competition October 5th from Mike Healey and Tom McGrady.

Seniors - You will know already from my earlier e-mail that 8 brave souls decided to make an attempt at mastering the elements today. It was always down as a Pairs Betterball competition and so the brave set forth. On the 1st tee, a little bit of caution took hold and they decided to play only 9 holes, therefore not visiting the other side of the course. The BBC were not far wrong with very blustery gusts and frequent bursts of rain - that was putting it mildly. The course was already damp from overnight rain and preferred lies through the general area were the orders of the day. All bunkers were GUR and the 16th hole playing short because of drainage work. Still the troops plodded on and returned the following results: Pairs Betterball First: Tom McGrady and Mick Carnell 21 points (c/b) £3 each Second: Alan Bottomley and Tony Jackson 21 points(c/b) £1 each Well done to all 8 for braving the conditions and thanks to Tom McGrady for the report.
