So winter is most definitely upon as we have moved onto using mats from the fairway. Winter wheels are also required on electric trolleys. They are not required on push / pull trolleys. Also in men’s competitions from the blue tees, mats must be used when teeing off on the par threes.
Trackman 4
More details over forthcoming newsletters but suffice to say, I’m super excited to announce that Trackman 4 is coming to the Pro Shop very soon.
End of Season Junior Awards
On Sunday, we held the fourth End of Season Junior Awards match and presentation.
Twenty four players took part in the match from the forward tees between the lady captain’s team and the gentleman captain’s team. Without going into too many details, it ended up being a resounding victory for the lady captain’s side in a one way contest that was reminiscent of this year’s Ryder Cup!! Well played LC’s team.
We then had a meal for approximately fifty adults and juniors in the dining room which was followed by the presentation. We went through all the winners of the year from the junior competitions, the Adult Junior events (and it’s Order of Merit) and the success stories from Golf Access.
We also awarded trophies for the Best Newcomer, Most Improved Player and Player of the Year awards which went to Tommy Lamb, Ben Hinton and Freddie Fallows respectively. Congratulation to them!
Finally we announced that the new junior captain starting in March 2022 is going to be Dan Turkington. He takes over from Charlie Hindle who has done a great job for the previous two seasons. We wish you the best of luck in your new role Dan!

Ladies Sparkly Ball Competition
The winners of last Thursday’s Sparkly Ball team competition were Amanda Greaves, Jennifer Bradley and Sue Bryant with 38 points. Second place went to Gillian Healey, Jackie Murphy and Trina Walsh with 36 points. Nancy Fallows, Tracey Thompson and Diana Harris finished in third place, having been beaten on a card play off for second.
This was a drawn competition enabling old and new members to get to know each other and to socialize afterwards in the warmth of the clubhouse. There was an excellent turnout with 48 ladies taking part.
