Results from the 5,3,4 team game played today (16th June).

I have consulted with the Captain over the result today. The team that came in with 66 points had a member who has not got an official handicap. A recognised handicap is essential if you are going to take part in either a stroke play or Stableford competition. Furthermore this team also signed for the wrong total. I have no hesitation in disqualifying the team. VC.

Fortunately or unfortunately this puts the VCs team into the lead. (Boo, fixed I hear you say ...)

FIRST: Douglas Keen, Barry Lund and Barry Holmes [64 points]
SECOND: Alan Jones, Bill Corcoran and Dinger Long [62 points]


Please note - players new to the Senior Section of the Club. If you don't bring an official handicap with you from another club, then please submit THREE cards, from three rounds of golf off the yellow tees, marked by an independent player, to Alan Lake (Seniors H'cap Secretary). You will then be awarded an official handicap and can take part in all the competitions.


The roll-up on Thursday 18th June is an Individual Stableford off the Yellow Tees. There will be a nearest the pin on ONE of the par 3's (the 12th.) and a longest drive on the 17th Hole.

Please note this individual Stableford competition is an opportunity for any new member without a handicap to go round with a playing member who can mark their card for them (the new member will not play in the competition).
