Au Revoir Ladies

It's been a relatively quiet week at the Golf Club. The Men's Competition on Sunday was played on a course that is slowly drying out, but there are still many flooded bunkers and a number of persistent wet patches on the fairways and more worryingly on a couple of the greens. The competition favoured the entrants playing later in the morning with the first four places going to players in the back half of the field. The winner was G Weir who won the Turney Wylde Trophy with J Watson winning the junior Maddison Trophy. Well done to you both.


Monday brought the Ladies Committee Meeting and the it was the last committee meeting for the Immediate Past Captain, Ciaran Hannon. Thanks for the all the sterling work Ciaran, you'll be missed.

Tuesday saw the Club Committee Meeting and the committee welcomed the Northern Racing Executive Director, Mark Spincer to the meeting. Here's to a long and productive working relationship.
This meeting was also the last for the Lady Captain, Denise Swindlehurst, who hands over the reins at the Ladies AGM next month. The Men's Captain, Paul Fairley recorded his sincere thanks for Denise's cooperation and friendship during their year as Captains together.


Thursday/Friday brought us a new air compressor/shoe and trolley cleaner ... paid for with Club funds and installed courtesy of Kenny Shepherd, the Men's Chairman and Brian Rutherford. Well done to you both and I hope the membership appreciates your efforts.




Keep your fingers crossed for dry weather and lots of drying winds ......
