We had good weather for the Captains’ drive-in and the Masters is just around the corner so the golf season feels like it’s already in full swing!
There are still a few spaces available for the Pro Shop Masters draw so please let me know if you like to participate. The price is £4 for one go and £10 for three goes. If you can’t make it down, just drop me an email and we can settle up another time.
New Captains
The club’s AGM took place on Friday 25th March and so we now have three new captains. You can see them below driving in the following day. We hope they all have a fabulous time during their respective tenures.
In the photos below, we have gentleman captain David Wainwright, lady captain Judy Pinnington and junior captain Dan Turkington. Incidentally Dan is the club’s second ever junior captain and the first to drive in. It goes without saying that all the drives flew straight and true!
There was a fun nine hole stableford competition played beforehand which was won by Barbara Spark with 20 points. Amanda Greaves and Paul Gilbert had the same score but were pipped into second and third place respectively following card play offs.
Lady Captain’s Last Waltz
This event was won by Min Fishwick, Amanda Greaves and Gillian Brogdon. The top three teams all scored 59 points but count backs separated them. Lynette Lodge, Jane Perks & Barbara Grant finished in second place and Irene Kirk, Vicki Wells & Wendy Jenkins were third.
At tea, Caroline Perkin presented the brand new Ladies Foursomes Challenge Trophy to the winners: immediate past lady captain Irene Kirk and Caroline Massey.
The Ladies Section presented flowers to the outgoing and incoming Lady Captains.
Ladies Clothing
The new ladies Spring/Summer range has just arrived and we also have some items on the rail with a promotion where if you buy a top and bottom together you receive a 10% discount. There are an enormous number of items but please hurry as many of the pieces are only here until Saturday 9th April.
