Seniors Stableford

I know it's beginning to sound like an old record, but yet again it was cold and windy out on the course today. We'll all be pleased when that draught from Siberia is replaced by some warmer westerlies.
Today's competition for the seniors was a yellow-ball Stableford ... or, as it turned out, an orange-ball Stableford. Teams of three players who take turns to play the dreaded coloured ball and earn double points for the team plus the best of the other two to count. The coloured ball can be a blessing, or in some cases, a curse as you feel under pressure to score well with it on your turn and particularly NOT to put it out of bounds or in a pond somewhere!!!
Eleven teams competed for today's prizes. The winning team with a super score of 122pts were Malcolm Passey, Harry Jackson & Jan Hinks. Runners-up were Paul Tebbutt, Les Eden & Ofer Ben-David on 116pts followed by Allan Trotman, Bob Evans & Linda Vale on 110pts.
Birthday boy John Clarke donated some bottles of wine for the fourth place team who were himself(!), Brian Faithfull & Sam Whiting.
