Winter league round 5. Results courtesy of Mike Healey

Cloudy with occasional sunshine breaking through and a chilling breeze to keep us on our toes. All repair work and drainage to the second hole has been completed, so the troops had to contend with the full eighteen holes today. The timing was good and ALL handicaps were entered correctly - thank you. The Committee members led the way round, in anticipation of a meeting immediately following the competition. Once again, there were some very good scores and the organiser is currently under the cosh with countback and card resolving. No fewer than four players registered two's in the ball sweep and they were: Mike Hollings (2nd) Don Wraight (2nd) Barry Dare (5th) and Stewart Poole (12th) - They each took a quarter share of the proceedings and there were a further six prizes for the Winter League winners. This time last year the overall WL result had been concluded after five rounds. Only three seniors can now win the Trophy - all to play for on the 9th March!!! Please find results below and WL table attached.
