Captain's Cup
A lovely sunny day (but a chilly wind) for today's competition which was the Captain's Cup preceded by the new captain's drive-in. Dean Butler, Sian Soanes and Allan Trotman (deputising for new seniors captain Judy Willson) all hit super drives off the first tee watched by all today's competitors. The three captain's drive winners were Jason Allum, Harry Jackson and Jeremy Twaits.
A good field of twenty-seven played in the ensuing Stableford competition which was won by Allan Trotman with an excellent 38pts. Runner-up one point behind was Stuart Briginshaw followed by John Baron (36pts) in third position.

Afterwards, everyone gathered in the clubhouse for the charity raffle which, with the drive-in, raised in excess of £260 for the Air Ambulance.
A big thanks to everyone who played in this event and donated raffle prizes to support the new captains and the charity today. Thanks also to Diane McIntyre and Judy Willson for organising the raffle afterwards.
