Gary Purton & Paul Fitzgerald played Andrew Pearse & John Bennett in this year's Winter League final.

Andrew & John won the 1st with a 4 nett 3 but Gary then decided to birdie the next three holes. Gary & Paul stood 1 up on the 5th Tee. Andrew & John then won the 5th, 6th, 7th and 8th, Andrew birdied the 8th. The 9th was halved, meaning at the turn Andrew & John stood 3 up.

Andrew then achieved an amazing up and down on the 10th for a 4 nett 3 to go 4 up, the 11th was halved then on the 12th Andrew sank a 15ft birdie to take the score to 5 up. The 13th and 14th were halved resulting in Andrew & John winning the match 5&4 on the 14th.

The Losing Semi Finalists: Simon Heath & Greg Savage and Ross Mason & John McPhee.

Thank you to Steve Smith who organised this year's winter leagues.


Saturday Medal 

13 year old Max Faulkner shot a super level par round of 70 in the Weekend Medal. This minus his impressive 5 handicap was enough to win the competition with a nett 65 pipping Antony Elderton with a better back 9. 

Martin Sharman won Division 2 with a 68 ahead of Bill Smith who both scored 70s. John Draper pushed Arvind Kacchia into 2nd placed in division three winning with a score of 71 again with a better back 9.


Thursday Medal

Richard Lobb strolled to victory in the last Thursday medal before the change to the winter course with an incredible nett 65 in very blustery conditions. 

Laurie Johnson must have thought he had secured victory leading for most of the day with a nett 68 until Richard came in in the penultimate group. 

This 68 was enough to clinch Division 2 with William Knibbs taking Divison 3 with a nett 70.


 

On Monday, Tim, Mark and Lewis were with Foresight Sports for their first certified training day. The day included comprehensive knowledge of the technology, how to best use it and ultimately allowing the guys to better equip your game whether that is through coaching or fitting.

Colt Course/9 Hole Juniors - These sessions will be aimed at helping you score lower on the course and progress towards 18 hole golf this summer. 

18 Hole Juniors - These will be training days aimed at bringing all of you together again and help you score lower. The idea will be that anyone wanting to play afterwards can arrange to do so straight after the session.


 

With the summer course open the 1st hole is once again looking a formidable challenge. Preferred lies are now out of action so please don't get caught out.
