Seniors Pro-Am

Ten teams took part in the Seniors Pro-Am on Wednesday. The best 2 nett scores out of 3 counted with the men playing from slightly modified white tees and amateurs playing off 3/4 handicap. The NRGC pro's (Nick Mitchell, Steve Mitchell, Dan Seymour, Nigel Hart and Tim Butler) were joined by Matt Briggs and Mike Williams from the Seniors Tour, Richard Campbell from West Berks, Scott Nightingale and Lloyd Childs. Unfortunately, John Hoskison could not take part due to injury.

There were some really good scores on the day and the winning team of Nick Mitchell, Tom Wallin, Judy Willson and Raymond Bilton scored a superb 124. Runners-up were Scott Nightingale, Derrick Perrin, Jim Green and Brian Bailey who just edged out Matt Briggs, Sam Whiting, Liz Evans and Jan Hinks on count-back after both scored 129.
