Footnote - Richard Woodward not returning to golf
Hello Barry,
Just to let you know my club membership is expiring and I have decided not to renew it. I will therefore not be rejoining the Seniors Section.
I have enjoyed my many years with the Seniors but I can no longer compete. I will miss the friendly company and particularly the banter.
Hopefully I will bump into many of you around Witney.
All the best Richard Woodward

IMPORTANT CHANGE OF GOLF DAY
The Witney Lakes Resort want to hold a corporate golf day, with a shotgun start, on Thursday 1st September, starting in the morning. They asked if our normal golf could be moved to the afternoon. Well as many seniors enjoy an afternoon snooze, I thought it better to move our regular spot to FRIDAY 2nd September. This will be a Teesing Stableford Team game with our normal course access from 8:00 - 10:00.
A note for your diary - Seniors' Golf has moved from Thursday 1st September to Friday 2nd September - normal times.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tuesday 16th August - Roll-Up - Yellow Peril Team Game.
Thursday 18th August
Roll-Up - Texas Scramble Team Game from 8:00 - 9:30, also ...
Home Match against Shrivenhan GC - coffee/tea/biscuits from 9:30 - first tee 10:30. The team is shown on this website and in the Sports Bar.
John Alexander has kindly volunteered to run the roll-up on Thursday.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Remember for next week the away match against Stowe is on a MONDAY - first tee time 9:00. The team is shown on the website and in the Sports Bar - Kevin is in charge of this one.
I have just heard that the after-match meal requires jacket and tie.
Happy Golfing!
